Jiří SRSTKA

Prerequisites:

credit

Study Objectives:

The master's level seminar focuses on organization of a multi-ensemble theatre divided into drama, opera, ballet and possibly operetta with awareness that the organization of a multi-ensemble theatre has different features and peculiarities than a one-ensemble theatre. Organization of a multi-ensemble theatre is viewed both from on a general level (graph and the variety of organizational arrangements in the sense of horizontal and vertical) and with attention to detail at all levels (problems with printed music, lighting adjustments for large stages etc.) with focus on the hypothesis that the general management of a multi-ensemble theatre and its typical problems must be based on analysis and solving of general problems on the one hand and important and practical details on the other hand (relationship of setting the price of electricity to the budget of a multi-ensemble theatre).

The seminar attempts to increase students' creativity by having them work on assigned topics that they explain at the seminar. The other students and especially the instructor act as opponents during these explanations.

Outline and Syllabus:

The range of topics is mainly as follows:

-organizational structure of a multi-ensemble theatre

-maintenance, equipment and operation of a large theatre facility

-legislation

-property management

-copyright issues

-founding documents

-relations with the organizer of founder

-budget and financial policy
