| Of course they're not going to provide the same benefits. Not having to set aside the best seats for subscribers may be the very reason the producers partnered with LCT rather than MTC or Roundabout. |

| Also, have either MTC or Roundabout partnered in a Broadway show that wasn't in their own houses? The analogy really makes no sense if that isn't the case. I seem to recall that maybe Roundabout offered its subscribers tickets (or a discount?) to "Mrs. Doubtfire", but again... they're the landlord. | |

| I'm sure there have been a handful, though I'd have a hard time coming up with a list. Wasn't the Derek Jacobi Uncle Vanya produced by Roundabout but at a non-Roundabout house? Not sure about all those shows staged at the Gramercy, either... but certainly MOST of their shows are indeed at their own houses. | |

| I don't see any indication at all that that Vanya had commercial producers; it was an RNT production. It also did not run beyond its subscription run and it was one of several subscription runs around that time which was when they transitioned from the Criterion to the Selwyn (soon named the AA). There may be a few examples of buying tickets from a commercial production as LCT has done quite a bit but I cannot think of any. Also, the whole thing of having commercial producers connected is relatively recent. Finally, of course, MTC has only a short history as a Broadway producer. I am not sure how the Gramercy shows would relate; they were not Broadway. In any case, this really seems like a LCT only model (which makes sense because of how they use the Beaumont) whereas RNY created a different model by owning 3 houses on Broadway. One other point: LCT has also not been shy about commercial partners at the Beaumont, and also, I think, did buy tickets for a few shows they did not produce there. (e.g., Ann). | |
