Those are investors who we rely on. And by we, I mean the audience relies upon them. Us holistic producers rely upon them. Historically, they were called dilettantes.

There is an interesting pattern, which is that by the late 70s and the 80s, there were very few investors on Broadway. If you look back to the 1980s, if you remove the four British mega hits, Cats, Les Mis, Phantom, and Miss Saigon, all produced by Cameron McIntosh, We had very little musical theater or legitimate play theater going on on Broadway.

Lynn and his colleagues, Tommy Kail, who's his director, they walked in my office in the summer of 2003. None of them were 30. They weren't even close to 30. They were courageous and adorable and fun. And the next thing I did is I went and watched them do Freestyle Love Supreme, their hip-hop improvisation show.
