Broadway entrepreneur Joel Kirk (@JoelTKirk) is doing the impossible. He has managed to turn his passion - Broadway - into a non-profit that both supports an industry he loves so much, and gives him the opportunity to create meaningful work with the world's most talented theater artists. He is living his dream, giving back to a community, and making a great living while doing it.


On today's episode, we discuss

  • Why broadway tickets FEEL so expensive (even though, they're not, when push comes to shove)
  • How broadway shows actually get financed
  • What Joel would like to see for the future of the industry
