How to Raise Money for the Arts . . . or for Anything

Do you have a show you want to get off the ground, but you don't have a clue as to how you're going to get the money? Or maybe you're working on a show right now, and you still don't have the cash you need? (I've been there - makes you sweat, doesn't it?) And does the mere thought of asking people for money make you nervous? I've been writing my blog about producing for over six years now and I get tons of emails with all sorts of questions about how to produce theater. But by a landslide, the most common question I get is, "How do I raise money for my show?" So I thought it was about time I answered it. But raising money isn't a simple subject that can be dealt with in a blog post. It has taken me over ten years of experience raising millions of dollars for my Broadway and Off-Broadway shows to come up with a strategy that works. Hard to sum that up in a few hundred words! So I sat down and wrote a 100+ page comprehensive how-to guide on the subject of raising money for the theater - the only one of its kind!
