Description

Applied Theatre: Economies by Molly Mullen explores the complex relationship between applied theatre and the economy. This book examines how socially committed theatre makers fund and finance their work, addressing longstanding concerns about the impact of economic conditions on practice. The author considers various theoretical perspectives and approaches to understanding this relationship, as well as ways in which applied theatre can be resourced sustainably. International case studies from Chile, Canada, the UK, New Zealand, Hong Kong, and the US provide valuable insights into the day-to-day challenges of applying artistic and social justice principles to financial and organizational processes. By shedding light on critical issues and tensions in funding relationships and economic activities, this book offers practical guidance for theatre makers seeking to maintain their social and artistic values while sustaining their work.
