Summary: The business of managing dance is essentially about people, products and politics. Consequently, it shares many issues and concerns with all kinds of management. It also presents a number of particular challenges such as the unique nature of the artist's vision, the manager's role in nurturing and facilitating the artistic product, the programmer's need to build and develop audiences, the issue of communicating about a non-verbal activity and the creativity required in planning, deploying and accounting for the use of frequently scarce resources. Dance managers have evolved various approaches to meeting these challenges and this book brings a range of their experiences together for the first time. It focuses on tour themes -dance artists, products, participation and the political context- each of which is explored from different perspectives by contributors currently working in dance management. It offers a unique insight into the field of management that has rarely been examined. but which has a resonance and relevance for all managers. (Font: Editor)
