New York's Broadway theatre scene has long been viewed as the "top
of the heap" in the world theatre community. Taking lessons from
the very best, this innovative guide delves into the business side
of the renowned industry to explain just how its system functions.
For anyone interested in pursuing a career on Broadway, or who
wants to grow a theatre in any other part of the world, The
Business of Broadway offers an in-depth analysis of the
infrastructure at the core of successful theatre. Manager/producer
Mitch Weiss and actor/writer Perri Gaffney take readers behind the
scenes to reveal what the audience and even the players and many
producers don't know about how Broadway works, describing more than
200 jobs that become available for every show. A variety of
performers, producers, managers, and others involved with the
Broadway network share valuable personal experience in interviews
discussing what made a show a hit or a miss, and how some of the
rules, regulations, and practices that are in place today were
pioneered. Allworth Press, an imprint of Skyhorse Publishing,
publishes a broad range of books on the visual and performing arts,
with emphasis on the business of art. Our titles cover subjects
such as graphic design, theater, branding, fine art, photography,
interior design, writing, acting, film, how to start careers,
business and legal forms, business practices, and more. While we
don't aspire to publish a New York Times bestseller or a national
bestseller, we are deeply committed to quality books that help
creative professionals succeed and thrive. We often publish in
areas overlooked by other publishers and welcome the author whose
expertise can help our audience of readers.
