| Abstract: | Work practices in creative or cultural production are shaped by both artistic and economic logics of practice. This study applies a practice theory-framework to qualitative research in German theatres and analyses (i) the nature of the relationship between artistic and economic logics of practice and (ii) how art and business as reference points influence creative production. Exploring logics of practice in theatre reveals a central paradox of creative production: economic logics tend to crowd out artistic logics, and thus endanger the resources vital to creative production. Consequently theatre actors and theatres, as organisations, have to develop means of safeguarding artistic logics of practice in order to delimit the influence of economic logics. |
