3.0 out of 5 stars Good Resource, January 24, 2008
This a great resource for new theatre producers. I really enjoyed it and it gave me some great tips on the bare bones tips. Another great resouce that I've found is actually a blog from off-broadway producer, Ken Davenport. Check it out if you get a chance: [...]

5.0 out of 5 stars Must have book for contract forms, December 28, 2008
This book is what "This Business Of Music" is to the music industry. Invaluable insights into producing a "real" Broadway musical. Everything from securing rights to details on the internal workings of financing.

Only wish there were a version on CD ROM so the forms could be used as templates for our purposes.

Well worth the $$. Highly recommend!

4.0 out of 5 stars Extremely helpful book, October 12, 2008
This book is very detailed and has answered every question i've had so far. The only thing is that i'm not sure how updated the information is, since it is an older book.
