Abstract
Although post-World-War-II regional theatres were initially conceived to challenge New York’s theatrical monopoly and to decentralize US American theatre, they have come to play an important role in supplying Broadway with new material. This chapter discusses the development of three Broadway musicals at national not-for-profit professional theatres, as well as the ambitions of global producers to present new work in New York. While cultural differences can complicate international transfers, relationships between US regional theatres and commercial producers often result in the creation of critically and/or commercially successful Broadway musicals and can allow regional companies to thrive financially.
