A live performance of Swan Lake by the Russian National Ballet has been cancelled by the Lancaster Grand Theatre in the light of events in Ukraine.
The ballet performance was due to take place on Sunday October 30.
A Lancaster Grand spokesperson said: "This will have a significant financial impact on the theatre and will be very disappointing for all our loyal customers that have booked tickets in advance, but we feel under the circumstances this is the right course of action.
"All patrons who have booked tickets will be refunded and will be contacted by our box office team in due course.
"We are currently looking to replace this date with another live ballet company."
This decision comes days after The Dukes in Lancaster made a similar call to axe the screening of Bolshoi: Swan Lake at the theatre. This was due to take place this Sunday, March 6.
"We understand that this decision will disappoint some audiences and for that, we apologise but we felt we could not go ahead under the circumstances," said a spokesperson for The Dukes.
"We recognise these are the actions of the Russian Government, not the people!
"All audiences who have booked tickets will be issued with a credit on their account and will be contacted by our box office team.
"The screening has been replaced by Matthew Bourne's Swan Lake."
