TEXT 13.WHO WORKS IN A THEATRE?

Part 1.

The number and range of people who work in a theatre depends upon its size and type. Today, theatres can generally be divided into two types: a producing theatre or a presenting theatre, but some do both. Producing theatres have creative teams who develop productions. They include artistic directors, designers of sets, props, costume, lighting and audio-visual media, as well as musical directors and choreographers. Additional specialists are brought in when needed. In these theatres the performers are auditioned and rehearse under the artistic director. Presenting theatres, sometimes referred to as ‘receiving houses’, host visiting companies whose productions have been developed elsewhere. Both will have a core body of specialist staff, some with operational roles; others directly involved in presenting a show.

(1) ____________

He or she manages the theatre, ensuring everyone is focused on putting on shows, attracting and looking after audiences, and making the theatre a financial and artistic success. He or she oversees the planning of the theatre’s programmes and has overall responsibility for the theatre’s finances, staff and the building itself. They report to the theatre’s owners or trustees.

(2) ____________

His or her role is to promote and sell tickets. To do so, they manage all aspects of the theatre’s publicity and advertising material which includes fliers, posters, press adverts, brochures, newsletters and websites. They oversee their content, design and production and arrange distribution of all printed material. Sometimes, in smaller theatres, this role includes press and public relations.

(3)____________

Not all of a theatre’s income will come from ticket sales. Many rely on grants, donations, sponsorship and membership schemes. The development manager creates fundraising strategies, writes grant applications, seeks sponsorship and looks for commercial partnerships. They set up and maintain membership schemes and develop initiatives that encourage people to visit the theatre more frequently. Smaller theatres, unable to employ a permanent development manager, may recruit a temporary fundraiser.

(4)____________

They ensure the smooth running of the theatre’s finances and its business interests. As a business, a theatre has to attract enough income to cover its expenditure. Running a theatre requires careful financial management, as there are many risks. Being able to accurately make assumptions and forecasts about the income from ticket sales, the cost of productions, and the overheads of the theatre is very important. A theatre also needs to prepare financial accounts for its owners or trustees.

(5)____________

They are the interface between schools and communities and the theatre staff. They often explain the workings of the theatre to pre-booked groups as well as offering varied educational programmes. Some education departmentsqualed productions for youth and school groups, as well as offering placements and work experience opportunities for young people.

(6)____________

They sell tickets, either over the counter, phone or the internet, working during the day and early evening. Some larger theatres sell their tickets through an external agency which operates longer hours.

(7)____________

They are the public face of a theatre, and work according to its performance times. Staff include ushers or theatre hosts who greet the audience and direct them to their seats quickly and safely, or to the cloakrooms, toilets and bars. They also sell confectionary, programmes, souvenirs, merchandise and refreshments, an important source of income for a theatre. Their duties also include assisting less mobile members of the audience. All are trained in security and health and safety, including the safe and speedy evacuation of the theatre.

(8)____________

They maintain and clean the theatre each day and are required to work around performance times. Some work may be carried out during the night.
