...Producers say most plays cost between $2 million and $3 million to launch on New York's main stages these days. Musicals like Wicked can cost as much as $15 million, but they tend to draw bigger audiences than dramatic plays.

Musicals take twice as long to get to the black. (See the best business deals...

...sold-out show would generate about $135,000 per performance. A sold-out week at full prices could generate as much as $1.1 million. At that rate, the show could be profitable in as little as two months, once you factor in the three weeks of previews, when ticket sales are likely to be light.

Real foodies should be concerned that critics like Sokolov are an endangered species. Their habitat - big-ticket, fine-dining restaurants - shrinks every year, encroached upon by gourmet hamburger joints, taco stands and various other chic, no-frills eateries. Their food supply - the expense accounts of large newspapers and magazines - has withered. And their most invaluable asset - their towering authority - has been leached away by blogs and review websites, leaving them without a place in the new ecosystem.
