| I don’t think anyone is denying artists the right to present their work as they conceived it, but the show does have to pay the agreed-upon minimums if they want to use a Broadway house. That’s just how the business of show business works on Broadway, The musicians don’t actually have to play a single note, and the show can use the recorded music if that’s how the creatives want it. But…the show must pay the minimums. Undermining the collective bargaining agreement isn’t good for anyone in the long run. I find it difficult to believe the producers didn't foresee this. |

| Maybe I don’t have a full understanding of how the nuts & bolts work, but I have a hard time understanding how a show could be THIS close to production without some sort of agreement? Can anyone with knowledge of the producer/ union agreements enlighten me? How could they possibly be cutting it so close with nobody raising this issue sooner? | |

| The producers knew exactly what they were doing. The issue was raised weeks ago and there have been many meetings between the producers and the union. Things are in the open now. | |
