There’s a phrase that’s common among those in the theater industry: You can’t make a living, but you can make a killing. Jill Furman is a theatrical producer and winner of multiple Tony awards. She’s part of the team that brought breakout successes “Hamilton” and “In The Heights” to Broadway. Mary Long caught up with Jill for a conversation about: - Pitching investors to back shows even when 80% of projects don’t recoup their initial investment. - Working on original projects versus those based on existing stories. - The formula for commercially successful musicals.
