Where did that job come from?
The Producer's Perspective: "Just the other week, I was talking to a very well-respected Producer who has been around for quite a few Tony Awards. He wanted some advice on hiring an internet marketing firm. I was giving him a few tips on how I pick my internet vendors, when he interrupted me and said, 'You know, Keith, it wasn't too long ago that we didn't have internet marketing firms.'

This article has some good points about theater in the last few years and they way in which it has developed. The internet is a great tool and with theaters starting to uses it a lot they are opening them selves up to a lot more people. And then a lot more people wounding to go see shows are at lest more interested in what they are doing. So there need to be people that deal with influx of people that want to come to the theater. But the one big thing that this does is rise the ticket price which makes more people not want to go to the theater. I would like to see ticket prices stay low so I can go and see shows but I also think that we need to get more people interested in these shows.
This article talks about a great topic of how there are more and more jobs being produced today. We all worry about unemployment and the lack of jobs, but with the right attitude and flexibility there is a wider range of jobs than imaginable. If you want to stay in the live production realm and find a job, you can always try something new. With productions moving further and further ahead in the capabilities its a great opportunity for people to work with something they never have before or specialize in something they enjoy.
