About This Book

Theatre in Market Economiesexplores the complex relationship between theatre and the market economy since the 1990s. Bringing together research from the arts and social sciences, thebook proposes that theatre has increasingly taken up themission of the 'mixed economy' by seeking to combine economic efficiency with social security while promoting liberal democracy. McKinnie situates this analysis within a wider context, in which the welfare state's tools have been used to regulate, ever more closely, the lives of citizens rather than the operations of markets. In the process, the book invites us to think in new ways about longstandingeconomic and political problems in and through the theatre: the nature of industry, productivity, citizenship, security and economic confidence. Theatre in Market Economiesdepicts a theatre that is not only a familiar cultural institution but is, inunexpected and often ambiguousways, anexemplarypolitical-economic one as well.
