COVID-19-related cancellations continue to wrack Cleveland’s performing arts scene.

Other January orchestra concerts in Cleveland are still scheduled as planned. Visitors must present proof of vaccination, including a booster, or a negative test for entry.  

Also today, Great Lakes Theater (GLT) announced the cancellation of its February production of “Ain’t Misbehavin." GLT announced in a news release it intends to proceed with other productions scheduled later in the season. Both organizations say they are reaching out to tocket holders with exchange, donation or refund options.
