The Producer’s Role in Director-Centric Theatrical Practice: The Professional Viewer

Rezumat

In my research, I examine the tasks of the professional viewer (the theatre producer, manager or director) in chronological order, from the bare idea of a production to the final performance. In other words, I ask what the professional viewer can do to ensure the success of a production – to ensure its smooth and professional realization. I investigate whether it is possible to create a linear series of tasks that doesn’t merely render the work of future theatrical managers easier, but also lets creative theatre professionals follow the emergence of the production in its own world, with the joy of discovery and a possibility of understanding.
