Zhodnocení činnosti vybraných divadel v České republice

Abstract

The topic of the diploma thesis was the evaluation of the management of multifunctional theaters in the form of contribution organizations of the Czech Republic in the years 2018–2022, and it dealt with the evaluation of performance-technical indicators and the economic side of selected theaters between the central and regional levels. The diploma thesis was structured into 6 chapters. The theoretical part of the work was devoted to culture, theatre, State cultural policy and management of contribution organizations. In the practical part, the evaluation showed that the regional theaters had better performance-technical indicators results, because they were more visited (81 %) and had a better use of the total seat capacity in % expression than the National Theater in Prague. The National Theater in Prague had better economic results due to a better rate of revenue self-sufficiency (22 %), a larger share of revenues from ancillary activities, a lower share of labor costs and a larger share of revenue from admission fees, and also had a higher average number of performances per title than regional theaters . The closest to the results of the National Theater in Prague are the National Theater Brno, the Municipal Theater Brno and the South Bohemian Theater České Budějovice. In conclusion, recommendations and improvements were proposed as part of the evaluation of selected indicators for regional theaters and the National Theater in Prague.
