In a letter to patrons sent out earlier this week, Geva Theatre Center announced that it has made several operational changes to “ensure that the organization continues its progress toward financial stability and growth.” Those changes included the elimination of five full-time positions in administration, marketing, development, and production, and the institution of unpaid furloughs in the production shops between shows. In related news, the Rochester Philharmonic Orchestra announced last week that it had made repertoire changes to its 2012-13 Philharmonic Series, replacing some previously scheduled works with works that are less expensive to produce, according to a press release.
