There is often an unacknowledged iron curtain between those who identify first and foremost as artists, and those who make the business decisions. But right now, for theatre to succeed there must be a marriage of art and commerce.We know it can be frustrating to feel like decisions are made about your work and you don’t understand why. We know it can be challenging to feel like you need to wait for someone else’s approval before work that you are passionate about gets off the ground.We recognized this divide and saw space to illuminate how the business of the business operates in order to transform the way artists and producers collaborate.Our goal is to pull back the curtain and demystify the process. To empower you with knowledge about the many, many considerations - both artistic and brass tax - that must interplay to create a successful show.thebusinessofbroadway.com
