ONE
1.1 BACKGROUND OF STUDY
A study of this is necessary at this
time of societal growth. It is desirable now that the theatre is greatly
finding its place. The theatre had hitherto been pushed aside with a wave of
the hand simply because over the years people had conceived the idea that
theatre is a place where immorality takes place.
There is also the view that theatre
art students never do well. May be they must have failed to qualify for any
other discipline and have no option than to study theatre arts consequently
they say that theatre is a dumping ground.
They had mistaken the theatre for a
place one can go and watch some humorous display, laugh to his fill and go back
home for serious business. These notions are very repugnant to the Artists.
It is imperative therefore to prove
that these are ridiculous misconceptions by apprising the management of a
typical theatre organization. The theatre in focus is that of the Delta State
Council for Arts and Culture.
1.2 PURPOSE OF THE STUDY
Councils for Arts and Culture in all
State of Nigeria were established to achieve basic objectives. First, they need
to project the cultural heritage of the people through events. Secondly,
through theatre, the foster unity among the people, thereby, their theatres
should educate and enlighten the people. Unfortunately, most of them have not
met the desired expectations.
It is therefore the purpose of this
project to highlight through suggestions positive methods that will ensure
sustainable development in the Arts Council especially the Delta State Council
for Arts and Culture.
The project will also serve as a
public relations medium for the benefit of theatre audience especially those
who see nothing beneficial about Theatre Arts. It is also envisaged that
students and researchers in theatre management will benefit from this effort.
1.3 SCOPE OF THE STUDY AND LIMITATION
Theatre Arts is made up of various
areas of admirable interest. These include Acting, Directing, Stage Craft, and
Choreography Costume and Make up. And theatre management for the purpose of
this project the author’s interest is purely on the management of the theatre
in Delta State Council for Arts and Culture.
The limitations are obvious: There is
dearth of materials in theatre management in Arts Council; therefore I took up
the challenge of travelling to investigate the managerial issues affecting
them. Unfortunately also some officials were not available during my visit.
However, I was able to gather information’s from the few officers I meet.
1.4 JUSTIFICATION OF THE STUDY
This study is the first of its kind to
deal with the management of the council in Delta State. This study remains a
valuable and operational work. It will help to solve problems that will emanate
from the process of managing a Stat Council for Arts and Culture.
It is also justified because its
recommends the efficient ways of running the council and the reason for
sustaining its theatre management. It will also enable the government to know
its duty in the up keep of the council and the solution to the problem of the
council.
1.5 SIGNIFICANCE OF THE STUDY
This study tends to explore an avenue
for scholarly orientation in the area of management which is in the academic
curriculum.
This study is materials for
researchers into management techniques and processes. To student of theatre
management it will facilitate their understanding of the component of theatre
management. This work will also be of immense benefit to the staff of the council.
it will help them understand their systems better. The recommendations made in
this work will help the government to improve her support for the council. From
this work, the society will understand how such a council can promote Arts and
Culture in Nigeria.
1.6 DEFINITION OF TERMS
In order to have a understanding of
this project it’s important to try and define some terms and context in which
they are used in the work.
THEATRE: The
world ‘theatre’ is derived from a Greek word “theatron”, which simply refers to
“a place of seeing” Edwin Wilson in his book the Theatre experience explains
that:
Theatre is experience, an immediate
art whose meaning is grasped through an understanding of the encounter between
who creates theatre – performance, writes, directors, designers and technicians
and those who view it – members of the audience. (Edwin Wilson 1976).
Theatre is also seen as a strong
channel which necessary information is disseminated. It is that communicative
medium that trays the society and tries to make correction when necessary. So
theatre mirrors life through its plays, which is used to communicate.
Brothel (1909), notes that nature of
the theatre is such that the most objective of the Arts is embedded in the
theatre management in order to have a good conceptual framework.
ARTS: According
to Oxford Learners Dictionary of English Language “Arts is the expression of
human creative talents in visual form”.
CULTURE: Whenever
we mention culture what readily come to mind is the way of life of a particular
society.
According to the New Webster Dictionary
of English Language, culture is: “The training and development of the mind, the
refinem of taste and manners acquired by such training, the social and
religious structures, and intellectual and artistic manifestations that
characterized a society”.
According to cultural policy for Nigeria
culture is “The totality of the way of life evolve by a people in their
attempts to meet the challenge of living in their environment, which gives
order and meaning to their social, political, economic, aesthetic and religious
norms and modes of organization thus distinguishing a people from their
neighbors” Policy (1985.5).
Whichever way we look at it, culture
embraces the sum total of a people way of life. Every community has its culture
and the culture of particular communities is strongly abided and passes from
one generation to another generation.
MOTIVATION: This
refers to factor within the individual which make the respond to certain other
factors if they present with that individual. Any stimulant that makes an
individual responds to any external factors and to create the desire for
performance.
ADMINISTRATION: This
is the systematic procedure of managing, directing or implementing business or
government policies in order to carry out or dispense an effective work.
