I need some HELP seriously!

Writing a dissertation, final year university essay, loosely based on musicals, and need to find some hard facts about the profitibality and costs of putting on a large musical on broadway or the west end.

does anybody here know where i can find this sort of information, or does anybody KNOW the information? If you can answer yes to either or both of these, then PLEASE PLEASE PLEASE can you help.

I have less than three weeks to write this thing, and i've left it way to late! Any help would be hugely appreciated!

Thanks in advance,

Jon

Best advice- don't ask for help here. This is a board populated mostly by teenagers who don't know the ins and outs of the actual business side of Broadway theater. The kids here can offer opinions, but no concrete facts. Check out Variety or Backstage for facts.

I suggest that you get ye to a reference librarian. And what is with the MONEY! heading?

Read back issues of Variety. The numbers are all there.
