	Description:		Broadway operates on a winner-take-most business model. A runaway hit like Stereophonic — which just won five Tony Awards — will create a few big winners. But even the stars of the show will have to go elsewhere to make real money. (Part two of a two-part series.) SOURCES: David Adjmi, author and playwright. Sonia Friedman, theater producer and founder of Sonia Friedman Productions. John Johnson, theater producer and co-founder of Wagner Johnson Productions. Tom Pecinka, actor. Sarah Pidgeon, actor.
