Readers will learn how to save time, save money, and increase profits for their organizations and causes while having a great time. Anecdotes from producers, directors, and participants share the successes, failures, and near misses of those who have been there and a wealth ofresources for show management is provided. Anyone considering live performance as a way of raising money must have this comprehensive guide.
