Kathleen Blanco. Senate Bill 218 by Sen. Edwin Murray, D-New Orleans, provides state income tax credits to investors in theater construction and to offset the costs of producing musicals, plays, music concerts and a variety of stage shows in Louisiana, provided those shows are debut performances. "The Broadway South legislation is going to spell the revitalization of New Orleans," said Roger Wilson, president of Broadway South, a firm under contract with the city to promote the initiative. "I believe in the next six months you will begin to see signs of rebuilding, not just the theaters but the buildings around them. The lights will soon be on year-round on Canal Street."

Webster 06/25/2007 Roger Wilson has it all planned out. On the same day Gov. Kathleen Babineaux Blanco signs Wilson’s Broadway South initiative into law, he will run a full-page ad in Daily Variety. “It will read,” he says, moving a hand across the invisible headline stretched out before him, “‘The greatest alignment of incentives for your performance art production has just been ushered in by the state of Louisiana.’” Wilson, a consultant for the city and entertainment industry veteran of 30 years, sees Broadway South as a clarion call, heralding the arrival of Louisiana as a major player in the world of performing arts. And it is close to becoming a reality. Two weeks ago the Louisiana Senate passed the bill, 31 to 5, and last Tuesday the House Ways and Means Committee approved the measure moving it to the House floor.
