Well, the linked post's argument is basically "Waaaaaa, producers personally have made money in the past, why are their businesses getting loans?" and points to accumulated grosses as if they're a pile of cash the show is sitting on. I.e., it's not based in even a basic understanding of the business. It's like pointing at the non-profits' endowments like they're ready money to be spent as needed.
Seller may have gotten rich off Hamilton; Adventureland probably hasn't. Adventureland has a dozen or two dozen people doing back-office work on Seller's productions. It's separate from both Seller's personal finances and the corporate entity of Hamilton. NAMCO does the same for the Weisslers' productions. |
