[quote=Anonymous][quote=Anonymous][quote=Anonymous][quote=Anonymous]It’s probably difficult to keep the cast members. I imagine there’s a degree of burnout working there and then you need to train-up new cast members, which is likely a very lengthy and expensive process. There’s a reason why most Broadway productions only run for 6-12 months max. The longer shows that last forever (Lion King, Wicked, etc.) can insert new actors like widgits, with an endless supply of actors in NYC and LA. They probably need to import talent into Orlando from other places.

They should’ve marketed this as a limited run experience. Maybe 2 years max. That would’ve created a scarcity mindset and they could positioned cast members for a set contract. At $2500/night I’m guessing that service expectations are sky-high. It’s got to be exhausting for the cast.[/quote]

Very interesting and good point that highlights that staffing would have been a challenge even without the Great Resignation. The lack of good business judgment in this whole endeavor is astounding. [/quote]

The pandemic upended a lot of businesses that relied on enough people onsite. [/quote]

I think a lot of the cast wanted WFH.[/quote]
