Last night, industry colleagues gathered in the ASB Waterfront Theatre to hear lessons we can learn from Broadway. Frances Valintine CNZM, chair of the Auckland Theatre Company Board, hosted a fascinating conversation with Nick Falzon and Yijin Liu. Nick has spent 18 years with Disney Theatrical Group, most recently leading Broadway’s largest commercial sales operation. He oversaw pricing and sales strategy for The Lion King. Much food for thought for the Aotearoa arts community!
