		In our not-for-profit theater world, it was becoming easy to lose sight of the fact that 85% of the American people 18 years old and more earn less than $50,000 a year, and that the annual U.S. median income is less than $22,000.
		We expected that the field would respond with huzzas to the news of this popular appetite for theater, because it demonstrated that the barriers to broad participation were surmountable - a good thing for the box office, for the art form, and for democracy.
