Abstract/Artist Statement
The theatre community in NYC was hit hard with the attacks on September 1 lth. It was hit both emotionally and economically. In this case study, I will discuss how the pulling together and the support of a community can help a city heal, both emotionally and economically: first, nationally, with the support of our leaders and authorities in office; second, internally, those involved with Broadway itself, and third outside business support. I will give examples of each of these three areas and discuss more in depth how each of these had an effect on the Broadway theatre industry.
