Prague theaters in the profit sector
Jordan, Hanuš ; PROKOP, Petr (advisor) ; SRSTKA, Jiří (referee)
This thesis is mainly focused on a detailed study of three theatres in
profitable bussiness sector in Prague. Considering sensitive nature of the
economic data, some of the information about the for-profit theatres
presented below are actually published for the first time.
The author also studies Mestska divadla prazska (City Theatres of Prague),
a contributory organisation of the city of Prague.
On academic level, the author of this work suggests a dissolution of the
union of the City Theatres of Prague. He proposes that the space of once
freed ABC Theatre should be rented to a new keeper with a profitable legal
personality. Thanks to this, the city of Prague would get considerable
financial savings and could keep maintenance of the representative theatre
in the very center of metropolis at the same time.
The author actually offers three possible models of operations for this
newly-emerged subject. He prepared programming and budgets for two
theatre seasons for the three cases.
In the last chapter he considers the most eligible model. Is it possible to run
this bussiness model with profit? On what conditions?
