  • An Empirical Study of the Determinants of the Run-Times of Broadway Musicals
    AN EMPIRICAL STUDY OF THE DETERMINANTS OF THE RUN-TIMES OF BROADWAY MUSICALS A THESIS Presented to The Faculty of the Department of Economics and Business The Colorado College In Partial Fulfillment of the Requirements for the Degree Bachelor of Arts By Katie Ferguson May 2011 AN EMPIRICAL STUDY OF THE DETERMINANTS OF THE RUN-TIMES OF BROADWAY MUSICALS Katie Ferguson May 2011 Mathematical Economics Abstract With an economic impact of $9.8 billion in the 2008-09 season alone, Broadway as an industry which should be economically studied. Currently there is a large gap in scholarly literature about Broadway with only three quantitative studies having been performed. This thesis aims to help fill this gap by building off of these three studies to determine which factors influence the success- measured as total days on Broadway from opening to closing night- of a Broadway musical. This thesis focuses specifically on musicals as they have been shown in all three empirical studies to have longer runs and a larger economic impact than Broadway plays. The econometric analysis finds many variables- such as a movie version of the musical being released, and winning the Tony for Best Musical- that are predictive of loner run times. Revivals are found to have substantially shorter run times than original runs and over time, musicals are lasting longer. KEYWORDS: (Broadway, Musical, Theatre, Run-time) TABLE OF CONTENTS ABSTRACT 1 INTRODUCTION 1 2 LITERATURE REVIEW 5 Characteristics of the Film Industry..................................................... 5 Live Theatre................................................. ..................................... 7 Modern Day Broadway..................................................................................... 9 Empirical Studies................................................ ..................................... 12 18 3 THEORY 4 DATA & METHODOLOGY 32 5 RESULTS AND CONCLUSION 52 APPENDIX A 65 WORKS CONSULTED 67 CHAPTER I INTRODUCTION Broadway makes an enormous impact on the local economy of New York City.

In celebration of the thirty-fifth anniversary of our walking tours, the Los Angeles Conservancy is revisiting our first-ever offering: a self-guided tour from 1978 called Would You Believe L.A.? The tour map included fifty-nine different sites in the historic core of downtown, providing the basis for the Conservancy’s first three docent-led tours. These three tours still take place regularly: Pershing Square Landmarks (now Historic Downtown), Broadway Historic Theatre District (now Broadway Theatre and Commercial District), and Palaces of Finance (now Downtown Renaissance). In the years since Would You Believe L.A.? was created and the first walking tours began, downtown Los Angeles has undergone many changes.

  • Broadway Theater Map
    Broadway Theater Map Times Square & Broadway Restaurants (not mapped – easy to find) • Restaurant Row (46th St, 8th/9th Aves) - home to 30 restaurants on one block, some a bit touristy, but all geared for the Broadway theatre crowd, serving prix- fixe specials and well-aware you have an 8pm show to get to. Recommended: Sushi of Gari 46, Becco & Barbetta (authentic Italian, 100+ years old). • Saki Bar Hagi 46 (358 W 46th St) - Japanese eatery & sake bar offering yakitori, noodles, sushi and much more. Open very late. I love this place! • Becco (355 W 46th, 8th Ave) - Italian, prix-fixe menus, all you can eat pasta and owned by Lidia Bastianich, a local favorite chef. • Carmine's (200 W 44th @ 7th Ave) - family-style Italian and their second restaurant (original on the Upper West Side). Widely popular with the theater crowd, tourists and a great family-friendly stop in Times Square. • Junior's - They have everything (burger, deli, breakfast, dessert), but are likely the most famous NY Cheesecake in the world. 2 locations in Times Square - 45th & 49th. • Sardi’s (234 W 44th, 7th & 8th) - an iconic Broadway institution for years, great for pre- and post- theater meals, a local Broadway star hangout. The menu is kind of random. Maybe upscale continental? Open on Thanksgiving. • Joe Allen - similar to Sardi's in that it is a popular Broadway hangout (stars, producers), but a casual tavern. Orso is their Italian sister restaurant. • Meske (Meskerem) (468 W 47th, 10th Ave) - Ethiopian, inexpensive & interesting. If you've never eaten using spongy bread to pick up your food (no utensils), it's fun and a must-try.
