Theatre Organization and Administration
There are many modern theatre movements which go about producing theatre in a variety of ways.
Theatrical enterprise varies enormously in sophistication and purpose. People who are involved vary from professionals to hobbyists to spontaneous novices. Theatre can be performed with no money at all or on a grand scale with multi-million dollar budgets. This diversity manifests in the abundance of theatre sub-categories, which include:
- Broadway theatre and West End theatre
- Community theatre
- Dinner theatre
- Fringe theatre
- Off-Broadway and Off West End
- Off-Off-Broadway
- Regional theatre
- Summer stock theatre
