Upstarts Win the Startups Award
While living in London, I was struck by how inventive theatre is there. Part of it is the aid from the government, but a big part of it is that they’re not scared of taking risks there.
It seems that risk has paid off for Three Sixty Entertainment, who produced a re-imagined version of Peter Pan. For their efforts, and business savvy, they won the Startups Business of the Year at the 2009 Startups Awards.
This honor is not only great for theatre in terms of recognition for a good show, it’s also great because it applauds these producers for going outside the box and bringing something new and wonderful to audiences… and it makes it “okay” for them to make money doing it too.
Let’s hope this enlightened thinking translates to this side of the pond as well…
