Why aren't more Broadway shows preserved on film? Jun 23 2021, 10:58:15 PM
I made an account just to reply since I was thinking about this the other day too.
But I think the answer is simple: Figuring out how everyone got paid would be the hardest part because of the various unions and agreements with film, stage, musicians, composers, writers, etc.
But as this thread has shown, besides untangling agreements and obligations, egos and gatekeeping of "Real Broadway(tm)" are a bigger factor than most let on.
