The owners of the Pittsburgh Ballet House on Rowan Road are planning to pick up their barres and slippers and move to a new location less than a mile away.

Allison DeBona stars in the CW's summer series, elevating ballet's return to mainstream pop culture.
Ballet is having a moment. A moment that ballerina Allison DeBona hopes is here to stay.
