Field notes
The estimator combines five planning dimensions: rights situation, venue, set and costume scale, run length, and cast size. Its displayed example is $1,763, with a $1,234–$2,291 range, under an all-volunteer assumption. The site explicitly excludes salaries, union rates, insurance, and most marketing, and tells users to replace general magnitudes with quotes from licensing houses, venues, and vendors.
