If I go to the ballet, am I a stake-holder? If the answer is yes, why do I seem to matter a whole lot less than somebody wandering in to get out of the rain and enjoying a takeaway Chinese in the Champagne Hall? 1 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Ian Macmillan Posted November 29, 2018 Share Posted November 29, 2018 Well, he explains in very broad terms what they did, but too broadly for us to get any clear idea of the specific measures taken. However, it was a bit naughty of me to have introduced this into a ROH Thread for the situations are far from identical. To the best of my knowledge, Mr Clausen has been involved in keeping afloat just a ballet company and not the theatres in which it normally performs - there are two, I think, in Calgary and Edmonton. And again, if I'm correct, his Board will have been responsible for the entire financing of the Company, for I doubt that it receives much (if any) Provincial or Federal support. Canadian Forum members, feel free to tell me I'm wrong. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
