Broadway feeds billions into NYC's economy, runs on union staff

NY Daily News: The shows must go on, because Broadway’s true singular sensation comes from the billions it pumps into the city’s economy.

The theater industry that dominates Midtown brought more than $12 billion into the city in 2016 alone.

All that economic activity added up to more than $1 billion paid to city and state taxes, according to The Broadway League that represents theater owners, general managers and producers in New York and around the country.
