Question: What does it take to be a producer!?
So, the arts is my passion, but i'm not nearly talented enough to be the musician or composer or actress i may want to be!. however, i do have other good skills that i think could help me succeed as a producer!. What does a Broadway producer exactly do, what are the figures (salary, first 2 years, 5 years, 10 or more) and what is the success rate!? like are there producers starving on the streets like musicians!? I would really like a career in the arts, but it would be nice if it were steady!Www@QuestionHome@Com

Many producers have worked there buts off, starting off as interns at Universal Studios from 3/4 years!. Its a tough industry to crack into, but if you have THE PASSION, it might not be as hard!. Salary varies, could be from 40 000 per annum, through to 150 000 and so on!.
