"Commercial Theater" - as opposed to what? Commercial theater, like Broadway, thrives on willing participants: producers and investors put up their own money hoping for profit, and ticket-buyers freely choose to spend their earnings for an evening of entertainment. The opposite is theater subsidized by government money — funds taken through taxation from people who would not willingly buy a ticket or invest in the production themselves. I guess Coercive Theater?

Libertarian here. In theory, I agree with you. In practice, I'd rather have our tax dollars go to support the performing arts than fund some ridiculous war (which always seems to happen whether the president is a Democrat or a Republican). And subsidies for theatrical ventures would always be minuscule compared to corporate welfare for sporting events.
If you're arguing, in theory, for an end to State coercion, I'm with you. If you're saying we should accept that result in the performing arts before you eliminate it in every other area of life, then I'll tell you to go **** yourself.

I see Danny Burstein is going for that 10th Tony nomination already.

No doubt he will get a tenth but it won’t be from this show.
