Abstract

In the global context of the Great Acceleration, things and people have been on the move more than ever before. Moritz Frischkorn takes a fresh look at recent performing arts practices that deal with everyday objects on and beyond the stage. Contrasting these practices with the business field of logistics, he examines the aesthetic and ethical concerns of moving things. Drawing on concepts from performance as well as Black studies and philosophy, and based on an artistic-research methodology, the book formulates a notion of more-than-human choreography as an ecologically informed, infinitely indebted practice of living within the material world.

Abstract

I Was Never Alone or Oporniki presents an original ethnographic stage play, based on fieldwork conducted in Russia with adults with disabilities. The core of the work is the script of the play itself, which is accompanied by a description of the script development process, from the research in the field to rehearsals for public performances. In a supporting essay, the author argues that both ethnography and theatre can be understood as designs for being together in unusual ways, and that both practices can be deepened by recognizing the vibrant social impact of interdependency animated by vulnerability, as identified by disability theorists and activists.

Abstract

Störungen, Boykotte, Absagen: Eine schwere Diskurskrise hat den Kulturbetrieb erfasst. Brisante Fragen von Identität und Zugehörigkeit werden zugespitzt verhandelt, Streitthemen und -formate passen nicht mehr zusammen, toxische Eskalationen schaden dem Ruf der Häuser. Karin Bjerregaard Schlüter und Ralf Schlüter gehen den Ursachen der Diskurskrise auf den Grund und zeigen, wie Museen, Theater und Hochschulen Shitstorms und Skandalen vorbeugen und ihren Betrieb sichern können. Ausgehend vom digitalen Raum vermitteln sie Methoden und Werkzeuge, um Debatten mitzugestalten und die eigene Position auch in einer digitalisierten Öffentlichkeit zu behaupten - abgestimmt auf aktuelle Diskursfelder und ihre medialen Settings.

Abstract

Internationale Theaterfestivals positionieren sich in der Dekade des Krisenhaften neu. Sie hinterfragen Theater als lokalen Ort der Verhandlung internationaler und globalpolitischer Themen. In welcher Weise sie zu kulturpolitischen Akteuren werden und welche Strategien die Kurator*innen der Festivals verfolgen, untersucht Nicola Scherer-Henze am Beispiel der Festivals »steirischer herbst«, »Zürcher Theater Spektakel«, »Festival Theaterformen« und »Internationales Sommerfestival Kampnagel« sowie des Nachwuchsförderprogramms »Internationales Forum« der Berliner Festspiele. Die Positionen der Kurator*innen werden kontrastiert durch eine Außenperspektive aus Fördersicht, Kulturjournalismus und internationalem Festivalnetzwerk. Festival Studies at its Beginning!

Abstract

The Business of American Theatre is a research guide to the history of producing theatre in the United States. Covering a wide range of subjects, the book explores how traditions of investment, marketing, labor union contracts, advertising, leasing arrangements, ticket scalping, zoning ordinances, royalties, and numerous other financial transactions have influenced the art of theatre for the past three centuries. Yet the book is not a dry reiteration of hits and flops, bankruptcies and bamboozles.Nor does it cover "everything about it that's appealing, everything the traffic will allow" (as Irving Berlin did in the song "There's No Business Like Show Business"). It is instead a highly readable resource for anyone interested in how money, and how much money, is critical to the art and artists of theatre. Many of those artists make appearances in the book: Richard Rodgers and his keen eye for investment, Jacob Shubert and his construction of "the bridge of thighs" for his showgirls at the Winter Garden, the significance of the Disney Souvenir Shop near the Lyceum Theatre on Broadway, and the difference between a Broadway showlosing millions of dollars or making billions in one night. Consider this book a go-to resource for readers, students, and scholars of the theatre business.

Abstract

In the first third of the twentieth century, South America became the most important market for many European theatrical companies. When Italy found itself in various theatrical crises, Walter Mocchi created a transoceanic theatrical empire, using his business acumen to craft viable solutions. While his efforts were most visible in the sphere of opera, he played an extremely significant role in the promotion and circulation of popular forms of musical theatre (such as operetta) and staged world premieres of works by Italian superstars in Argentina (such as Mascagni's Isabeau), thus offering an early example of what Stephen Greenblatt calls 'cultural mobility'.

Abstract

Geprägt von experimentellen oder subversiven Ansprüchen standen die Aktionskünstler_innen sozialistischer Länder nicht nur den tradierten Kunstgattungen kritisch gegenüber, sie problematisierten auch dezidiert gesellschaftliche Automatismen, parteipolitisch idealisierte Menschenbilder oder die modernistischen Ideologien eines global verbreiteten, kompetitiven Fortschrittsglaubens. Die Beiträge des Bandes zeigen das breit gefächerte Spektrum von künstlerischen Formen der Kritik im ehemaligen europäischen »Ostblock«, deren widerständige Artikulationen von spontanen Interventionen im öffentlichen Raum bis hin zu konstruktiven Reformvorschlägen für einen besseren Sozialismus reichten. Besprochen in: Vier Viertel Kult, Sommer 2020

Abstract

Hier lernen Sie, wie Sie „Theater“ – also Ärger – in Ihrem Unternehmen entgegenwirken können, und zwar wiederum mit Theater, in diesem Fall Unternehmenstheater. Die Autoren zeigen, warum das Wortspiel gar nicht so abwegig ist: In einer Welt, in der Lesen „out“ ist und Spielen „in“, eröffnet Unternehmenstheater neue Möglichkeiten, Menschen zu mobilisieren. Teambildung und Motivation werden gestärkt und Führung wird auf die allgegenwärtige Komplexitätsrasanz eingestellt. Mit dem hier vorgestellten neuen Konzept von Unternehmenstheater wird endlich die Brücke zwischen Improvisation und Führung geschlagen und ein wirksames Konzept für zeitgemäße, moderne Führung präsentiert. Eine echte Innovation in der Trainingslandschaft! Der Inhalt Ein kritischer Blick auf Unternehmenstheater Wie Führung und Improvisation zusammengehen Ein „Neues Unternehmenstheater“? Die Zielgruppen Manager, Führungskräfte, Nachwuchsführungskräfte, Mitarbeiter in Personalabteilungen sowie Organisatoren von Unternehmenstheater Studierende und Dozierende der Betriebswirtschaftslehre Die Autoren Tilo Esche (Regisseur), Jürgen Jünger (Dozent/Trainer/Coach) und Hans Joachim Hoppe (Manager) haben sich gefunden, gemeinsam dem Konzept Unternehmenstheater eine neue Qualität gegeben und damit die Grundlage für spielerisches Erlernen erfolgreicher Führung geschaffen. .

Abstract

The notion of development influences and is influenced by all aspects of human life. Social science is but one representational option among many for conveying the myriad ways in which development is conceived, encountered, experienced, justified, courted, and/or resisted by different groups at particular times and places. This wide-ranging collection from a diverse group of academic and non-academic authors engages with the broad field of development through twelve chapters that deal with music, theatre, fiction, photography, festivals, computer games, the arts, blogging, and other media. It explores three broad areas of alternative forms of knowledge about development, organized around the three themes of 'translation', 'advocacy', and 'engagement'. The first of these is concerned with how popular representations of development can successfully compete with and complement formal social scientific representations; the second relates to the politics of popular representations of development, and the way that popular productions shape debates; and the third asks whether popular representations of development can generate alternative critiques that allow for the articulation of views that would be unacceptable to more orthodox means.

Abstract

This book provides insights into current issues in corporate governance by examining twelve cases from the 2010s and 2020s where corporate governance was seen to be an issue. The cases are designed to introduce the reader to ‘real life’ episodes with corporate governance implications, shedding light on why corporate scandals continue to occuer, to what extent these are a corporate governance failure, and in which ways corporate governance – and the behaviour of those involved in ensuring good governance and an ethical culture in their business - may be improved in the future. This book will be of interest to businesspeople, students of business, and lawyers and motivate discussion on the reasons why corporate governance failed, or was seen to be inadequate. Professor Jean Jinghan Chen joined the University of Macau in 2018 as a Chair Professor in Accounting and Finance and the Dean of Faculty of Business Administration. Prior to joining the University of Macau, Professor Jean Chen worked in the UK Higher Education Sector for almost 30 years. She was a Chair Professor of Accounting and Finance in the University of Southampton, at the University of Surrey and at Xi’an Jiaotong-Liverpool University.
