Thank you for the complimentary portion of the post!
In what ways do you find me so very naive about the business/economics of theater? I'm not saying I'm not, I've never personally produced a show on Broadway. I have worked with my people who have/do... but that doesn't mean I know nearly as much as I might need to to understand it. I don't mean to post as if I do know, I am posting based on what I observe or think I understand or what I posit.
What from this post do you think I have so wrong?
I don't think I'm wrong at all that FLYING's lack of sales and early closing has quite a lot to do with the COVID situation, before it went on sale and with the omicron breakout and surge happening in NYC in the last 5 weeks of the show's scheduled run.
I don't think I'm wrong that major non-profits, including LCT, almost always let their scheduled shows run the scheduled run even if they are "flops".
I don't know how one "interacts" with respected theatre historians... in my generation or outside it. But I do know quite a few people of older generations who know a lot, and of my own who know as much or more than I do. I don't consult them before I post here. But what would have changed about my assertions if I had? |
