I know the CBYE got the Tivoli for a song, but I wonder if this a good fit for the ballet company. The consultant seems to hint at this when she says the Tivoli stage is not suitable for classical ballet productions because it is such a shallow stage. She does recognize it as more suitable for smaller dance productions and musical theatre.

I wonder if anyone is working on a collaborative arrangement with CBYE and Opera Hamilton to have them as co-tenants in a restored Tivoli. They seem like a logical pairing. Whenever CBYE has full-scale productions (like their annual Nutcracker Suite), they could still use Hamilton Place.
