Piece of cake
It’s easy to produce theater. That’s the conclusion one could draw from a spate of country-spanning articles about audiences and budgets going up, up, up. Yesterday, the Times told us how Broadway sales are very strong this summer and Playbill announced that a big-budget Mamet revival there had recouped its costs. Today, we read that the theater scene in Seattle is regaining the spotlight.
So, why do we at Handcart have to work so hard? What these articles are saying is that for some it’s recently become easier or at least more feasible once again to produce theater with budgets close to $1,000,000 or more. I’m still looking for articles that say it’s better now to be a small theater group trying to grow!
