My son works as a model builder for a designer on Broadway and he is hand-to-mouth at the best of times and is trying to find someone to sponser him. Even that is tough to do, especially in NYC. Too few slots and way too many extremely qualified folks for them.

Our producing director retired from Broadway after many years as a musical director and he said that while some stage crew are grossly overpaid(like the guy who hits the up and down button to opereate the grand rag), many are not. The ones that work the hardest are usually the lesser appreciated. Two sides to every coin, I guess.
