How we work

We read the budget as closely as the script.

01 · The story

New people in the seats.

We back work that pulls new audiences into the theatre, from a horror story on West 52nd Street to an untold chapter of American history. That’s how Broadway grows.

02 · The math

Every show, stress-tested.

Before we commit, we model every show: capitalization, weekly break-even, and recoupment in strong runs and soft ones. If the numbers don’t work, we pass.

03 · The partners

Partners in the room.

Our investors see the numbers we see, and join us for the moments that matter: readings, rehearsals and opening night.

For investors

Get in before the curtain goes up.

OFFSCRIPT brings a small group of accredited investors into select Broadway productions and tours. First-time investors are welcome, and we’ll answer your questions whether or not you invest.

Is it right for you? Theatre is a high-risk, illiquid investment. Your money is tied up for the life of the show, most productions never pay back their investors, and you could lose everything you put in. Invest only what you can afford to lose.
