The season, which also includes Mozart’s “Le Nozze di Figaro (The Marriage of Figaro)” and Puccini’s “Tosca,” has been cut from 24 performances to 15.

General director Ian Derrer said the company lost $1.6 million of projected revenue due to canceled performances in 2019-20. The company said five administrative staff are being laid off, six fulltime positions will shift to part time and two will be furloughed, cutting fulltime administrative and artistic staff from 40 to 26.
