FOREWORD

The Pew Charitable Trusts commissioned The Performing Arts in a New Era from RAND in 1999 as part of a broad initiative aimed at increasing policy and financial support for nonprofit culture in the United States. The goal of this study was to assist us in bringing new and useful information to the policy debate about the contributions and needs of the cultural sector at the national, state, and local levels.
The study was inspired in part by a pair of landmark reports on the performing
arts

    Acting is forever more than being confined to the idealism of ‘reacting’ or the arduous assignment of regurgitating words from a page. Contrarily, it details an infinite expedition, leading one into a realm of countless political and cultural contexts. The very stage acts alongside you, to your every breath, as a sweetly intoxicating environment: providing that aroma, the chill before a performance, the warmth during and that tangible certainty of assembling an entire kingdom with such candour. A platform, which not only allows me to succumb to my own sphere of reality, but also to enrapture and transport an audience amidst a plethora of emotions; making one weep and laugh and hate and love. This is no simple gift. This is limitlessness.…

    Everyone has probably played the game "Follow the Leader" back in elementary school. It is a game where the leader stands in front of the line. He or she can say or do anything, and her followers (standing in a straight line behind her) must repeat exactly the same thing he or she does or says. Whoever was picked to be the leader must have loved the experience because one had the freedom to do whatever they please, while others followed miserably or happily depending on what the leader is saying or doing. However, if one was the follower, one would wait anxiously to be the next chosen leader. At the same time, one must somehow express his or her self in a fashion that will make them stand out from the rest of the students. Whether he or she is perfectly imitating the leader or behaving really respectfully of others. Nonetheless, who determines who should be the leader? What kind of characteristics must a leader possessed? What makes a great leader (Robbins, 2005)? Is there only one kind leadership? These questions will be answered as you continue to read on. In addition, you will come across case studies, real life experiences, and my own observation on how leaders in my work setting exhibit leadership behavior and how followers respond to it.…

    The United States Marine corps is America’s number one force for many reasons; our ability to protect the nation, the self-sacrifice we have endured, and our integrity. The Marine Corps has always been known for its standards of self-discipline that allows us to maintain the great quality to accomplish a mission. The Corps is a symbol of honor, it demonstrates the courage we have, and the commitment we give ourselves for greater reasons. These core values are taught to us at recruit training so that we can continue the legacy of excellence and upholding the highest standards possible. Integrity it’s not just the foundation of the military but of life. One’s integrity shows character, morals, and leadership. Having integrity goes with doing the right thing when no one is watching. Someone with honor shows great leadership and pride in one’s self. The military demands us to know the critical importance of integrity. The importance of honesty in everything we endure goes on showing where we come from and our beliefs.…

    The earliest of the modern theatre movement was naturalism. Russia lagged behind the rest of Europe, as far as theatre was concerned. That point was proven when the Meiningen Players performed in Russia. The Meiningen Players created not only a set, but also an environment in which they are a part of (Gascoigne 265). Russian producers saw, first hand, how far behind they were. The Imperial Theatre system spent most of its resources on opera and ballet while neglecting legitimate theatre. Most of the administrative staff was composed of government appointees who had little or no interest of theatrical production. There was no effort to harmonize sets and costumes to create a unified impression (Londre 359). This changed, however, with the abolition of the Imperial Theatre and the creation of the Moscow Art Theatre in 1898. The combination of three talents, Konstantin Stanislavsky, Vladimir Nemirovich-Danchenko and Anton Chekov, would set unprecedented standard for dramatic art in Russia.…
