Abstract

This study explores the relationship between Broadway's financial success, NYC tourism, and production costs. By analyzing data from 1980 to 2023, the study finds that tourism plays a crucial role in Broadway's performance, while cost management, particularly cotton prices, also influences its financial outcomes.
