Broadway Grosses: Week Ending 10/21/18  Oct 22 2018, 07:09:43 PM

@poisonivy2 I wouldn't be too concerned yet. If HOH can survive with what is most likely a much higher weekly running cost, I think Torch Song will be just fine.



Touring production prices  Oct 18 2018, 12:40:34 PM

@Babe_Williams That decision is made jointly between the venue, the tour management company and the producer.  The pricing for each stop on the tour is negotiated pretty far in advance, and any discounts that aren't agreed to then need to be agreed to by all parties later. Venues often don't like to discount because unlike Broadway, they need their audiences to come back to see other shows and don't want to train them to look for discounts.  



Is ONCE ON THIS ISLAND Closing in January?  Oct 14 2018, 02:25:41 PM

Not that Producers share everything with potential investors, but I was approached to invest in Hadestown and was told 100% it was going into a proscenium house. and that was part of the reason they did two additional productions after NYTW, to prepare for a traditional staging. 



Al Roker to join Broadway cast of WAITRESS  Oct 10 2018, 12:17:24 AM

I saw him in it tonight and thought he was charming. Down to earth and folksy. Stunt casting to be sure, but not in a crass way.



Broadway Grosses: Week Ending 10/7/18  Oct 10 2018, 12:13:36 AM

@zainmax I'm sure that's part of it. He's likely getting weekly fees as executive producer, producer, general management office and advertising agency. And a lot of first time producers who may have given loans with the false hope that things would turn around eventually.



Opening night playbill question  Oct 4 2018, 01:53:31 PM

The ushers put the silver foil opening night stickers on the Playbills, so it's wherever they decide to stick them (they're usually told where to do it but when you have to put stickers on 1000 Playbills you probably don't always put them in the same place.) Shows can pay extra to have Playbill print a special Opening Night edition, most shows don't, they'll just reprint the title page and put that in as an insert if there were any last minute changes.



The 2018-2019 Broadway Season - Confirmed Productions  Sep 29 2018, 05:40:06 PM

Will Waverly Gallery be considered a new play or a revival?



Diversity of Producers  Sep 27 2018, 02:05:39 AM

@JSquared2 I can't imagine any of those celebrities were lead producers, meaning a managing member of the LLC. Usually they are co-producers.



Almost Famous Musical in the Works From Cameron Crowe and Tom Kitt  Sep 25 2018, 03:22:27 PM

I wouldn't hold my breath waiting for this to actually happen. The producers have been co-producers a few times - always sharing that billing with others. If they haven't been able to raise their co-producer share on their own it will be an uphill climb to raise many times that on their own. Not saying it won't happen, but without an experienced producer on board, I think it's unlikely.



TORCH SONG at the Hayes - a commercial run?  Sep 24 2018, 02:09:37 AM

Hogan you're a stickler for details and I appreciate that smiley



TORCH SONG at the Hayes - a commercial run?  Sep 24 2018, 12:55:39 AM

Good point Hogan: them being the landlord probably gave them better leverage to get that billing. I was approached to invest in the show (I ultimately passed but the weekly is very low and I wouldn't be surprised if this recoups) and have a few friends who are investors and co-producers.  Second Stage definitely gets a royalty, as most originating theaters do. And you are correct it's an LLC, even though the industry moved away from partnerships lead producers are still ofte

Bandstand Tour Still Happening?  Sep 23 2018, 10:41:37 PM

@mplstheatrefan Allied doesn't produce tours, they are a booking office. They take existing shows and string together venues to create the tour. I'd say it's highly unlikely Bandstand will tour. Most of these venues are already in the late stages of planning their 19/20 seasons and don't want to take a show several years after it was on Broadway. It was going to be a tough sell as it was, the more time that passes the more unlikely it becomes. I could see them releas

TORCH SONG at the Hayes - a commercial run?  Sep 23 2018, 10:35:01 PM

Second Stage has no involvement other than billing (and royalty) as the originating theater. This is a commercial production produced by Richie Jackson, who is the sole general partner. Originating theaters often get billing as part of their deal when a show transfers, what's unusual here is that they negotiated for, and got, first position.



Autopsy of GTBBT, Carousel, SpongeBob  Sep 22 2018, 02:58:03 PM

I appreciate that someone is covering the business of Broadway, but if you click through to the author's website he describes himself as a Broadway producer yet he has no credits on ibdb? It looks like he was an investor in Godspell. Hmmm.



Autopsy of GTBBT, Carousel, SpongeBob  Sep 21 2018, 06:39:46 PM

Very interesting but it's less of an autopsy and more of a monday morning quarterbacking. Would love to have someone really dig into when they knew it wasn't going to be a viable show, and what they would have done differently knowing what they know now.



Send Charlotte St. Martin A Message: Dim All The Lights For Marin Mazzie  Sep 16 2018, 12:34:39 AM

@BroadwayConcierge The house manager isn't allowed to turn off the lights - a union electrician has to do that. As far as Charlotte, she's the chief executive or the organization who was hired by the board of directors - but she's an administrator, not a decision maker, when it comes to stuff like this or most League business actually. 



Will filming Broadway shows ever be profitable?  Sep 4 2018, 12:12:24 PM

@OlBlueEyes 4 out of 5 new restaurants fail and close. Do you think that's also a dying industry?



Production Tech Question  Sep 3 2018, 11:46:02 PM

@Anthony12 While you wouldn't be doing any of the physical load in or out, a job with a GM office would give you exposure to that and let you meet those folks.



Will filming Broadway shows ever be profitable?  Sep 3 2018, 11:27:23 PM

@OlBlueEyes, the theatre is certainly behind professional sports, but there is plenty of advertising: Playbills are provided to the show for free because they make money by selling ads. Theaters can pay for renovations by selling naming rights (the American Airlines didn't get that name because Roundabout wanted to honor their favorite airline) and opening night parties, green rooms and star dressing rooms are often sponsored (look in the back of the Playbills, even washing machines,

She Loves Me, Holiday Inn, Indecent and Present Laughter were all originally PBS productions, no?"

BroadwayHD produced all of the Great Performances shows on PBS, PBS helped fund them in exchange for airing them before they streamed on BroadwayHD.
