After six seasons with Cleveland Ballet, Company Artist Erinn Crittenden will take her final bow during this weekend’s performance of “ChoreoLab.”
Since joining Cleveland Ballet in 2019, Erinn has brought artistry, versatility, and heart to the stage in performances audiences have loved — from Tweedle Dee in Margo Sappington’s “Alice in Wonderland” to Balanchine’s “Serenade,” and, most recently, originating the role of one of the Stepsisters in the world premiere of “Cinderella.”
Beyond the stage, Erinn has also made a lasting impact as a beloved teacher with The Academy of Cleveland Ballet, inspiring and mentoring the next generation of dancers.
It feels especially fitting that Erinn’s final performance will be “ChoreoLab,” a program she was instrumental in helping develop and launch three seasons ago — a creative space that has become a favorite for both audiences and artists alike.
Join us Friday evening as we celebrate Erinn’s remarkable career and send her off with one final standing ovation.
