Research Summary

This research project explores the potential of influencer marketing as a strategic tool to help generate ticket sales in the theatre industry, where the majority of Broadway productions are unable to break even. The study seeks to understand how theatre marketing professionals currently utilize influencer marketing, if it has the potential to boost ticket sales, and if it could attract a younger audience. This research was conducted by interviewing Broadway professionals. The study aims to investigate if influencer marketing can boost theatre ticket sales, particularly among new audiences.
