Broadway and Opera Video Streaming

 

During Shakespeare’s days, the plague did shut down the playhouses. Is history repeating itself? Probably yes! The absence of theater lovers has left the Broadway and Opera houses dark and silent. And this silence is deafening. 

It’s true! The pandemic isn’t going anytime soon.

The world steels itself against the pandemic by banning public gatherings. And this has had a devastating impact on the performing arts. 

However, your show must go on! 

And an end-to-end video streaming platform makes it possible for you. 

Yes, your audience can still enjoy the drama and applaud at their screens. 

In the next 5 minutes, we are going to explain to you how to take your Broadway And Opera online on a video streaming platform.

 

  • Create an Awesome Website

The first step for your shows to go online is to launch your Opera and Broadway streaming website. And for this, all you need to do is sign up with an end-to-end streaming platform. With such a platform, you can instantly deploy your streaming service after submitting all the necessary details. 

Once your account is set up, you will have Broadway streaming service created in a few minutes and preview it instantly. If the website appeals to you, you can Purchase the subscription directly. 

If you feel stuck at any point, you can browse through the help articles or contact support team that will guide you through.

 

  • Customize your Website

Your audience love the drama and comedy that your team brings through your shows. 

How about giving them the similar dramatic feel of being in your Opera and Broadway theatre starting right from the aesthetics of your streaming website?

Your streaming app can leave a lasting impression on your audience’s minds when you customize it that way. For this, you need to use a template that aligns with your brand persona. This will create more viewer engagement throughout their streaming sessions.

Not to forget that you can add your logo and banner and have your fully white-labeled streaming platform

  • Upload Content 

After finalizing the template, you can upload all your show content on the CMS. As per your convenience, you can choose a single video file and also upload all show content altogether from your personal computer. 

A good streaming website like Muvi will support multiple import options to upload content from 3rd party cloud drivers.

This can help you support all your artists and team and also contribute to worthy charities.  

You can put your shows on multiple monetization models like Subscription(SVOD), Pay per view(PPV), Video Ad-Supported(AVOD) or Transactional(TVOD).
