Programme

The program consists in the analysis of the system of performing arts, with reference to the different management models of Italian and European theaters and creative companies. The sector legal framework is analyzed, both from the point of view of current legislation and of its applications. In particular, the methods of access to public financing, in relation to Europe, the State, the Regions and local Authorities, are examined in depth. The program provides for the examination of specific cases of Italian management models with the presence in class of some professionals (production managers, directors, artists) who provide evidence of their organizational model, their artistic programming and economic sustainability of a cultural enterprise. Some reference models of foreign theaters and festivals will be examined too.
Among the topics covered: the mapping of the system: which theaters and which companies; the organizational dimension (function chart and organization chart of cultural enterprises), the legal dimension (profit and non profit), the economic dimension, European funding (Creative Europe and Erasmus Plus), state funding (analysis of the 2017 MiBact decree).
