Advancement Prospects
Advancement prospects are poor for playwrights. Career advancement can take a number of different paths. Some playwrights advance their career by writing for television or the movies. Others climb the career ladder by having their scripts produced by a major producer on Broadway. While this is rare, it can happen.
