Support of theatres in the capital city of Prague
Válková, Pavla ; Mates, Pavel (advisor) ; Louda, Tomáš (referee)
Prague, the capital of the Czech Republic, is specific in many respects. Concerning cultural life, the characteristic features are to be found primarily in the way cultural activities are supported and publically financed. So called "transformation" of Prague theaters suggests that "The Grant System of the City of Prague" is closely linked with the ownership structure of theaters. The particular way the theaters, i.e. providers of the public service, are supported changes the way individual theater are run. The goal of the Master Thesis is to assess financial support of theaters in the City of Prague with respect to different ownership structures and to point out to potential links between the actual support of culture and the current priorities in this area in the City of Prague as well as in the Czech Republic as a whole. The starting point is with the description of the current governance of the Prague's cultural life, its organization and linkages. A particular attention is paid to the comparison of various ownership structures in the sphere of culture and to the Grant System of the City of Prague. A separate chapter is devoted to the overview of requirements and rules for the provision of public financial support with selected theaters. Consequently, the present-day system of governance and support of cultural activities in Prague is evaluated together with selected ownership structures of theaters.
