A theater consulting firm! (GASP) I figured one of these must exist, but this is the first I’ve learned of by name. This is super cool! I wonder if there’s a nonprofit consulting firm that seeks to help new theaters run their operations? Wouldn’t that be awesome? One of my interests in theater is theater research, so I will definitely be looking into this company! I wonder how big the market is for theater consultants. Has it grown in recent years? Most people are unfamiliar with what consultants do, but having grown up with a consultant dad I’ve gotten to have many conversations about the uses and purpose of consulting and it’s rather helpful, especially for growing businesses!
