But why are multi-million-dollar Broadway productions making financial data freely accessible to the public? And what information are producers sharing with (or obscuring from) the public under mysterious, theatre-lyric-themed LLC names?

What is a pro-shot and how is it different than an adapted film? Pro-shot is an abbreviation for professionally shot, denoting a stage play that was captured in its native habitat: a theatre. In general, a pro-shot seeks to film the exact experience that audience members would have at a live performance of the show, in contrast with a feature film which actually adapts the piece into a new form, including different locations, the removal of theatrical aesthetic, and changes to make the script work as a film as opposed to as a live theatrical show.
