Dance companies can take on many forms and have different ideals and structures. Looking at other companies' behaviors, models, and methods is a great place to start when you're creating a dance company or taking an established company in a new direction. Inside this book, you'll find a detailed guide on starting and maintaining a dance company based on research, analysis, modern business practices, and personal accounts from industry professionals. USE INFORMED CHOICES TO IMAGINE AND INSPIRE
All the information, resources, and anecdotes presented in this book aim to enable you to be a more successful director, founder, administrator, choreographer, or staff member. Starting a new professional dance company or running an established one is not easy. There are many moving pieces and operating a company is a complex business. However, the tools, resources, and text of this book are designed to simplify this process. If you continue to dedicate time to improving your knowledge base as you gain experience, you too can be successful. DESIGNED FOR DANCERS
As a bonus, this book contains helpful charts, graphs, illustrations, and other visual aids throughout. Additionally, every concept in this book is explained in dance industry terms with relevant examples to make the material relatable and easy to follow.
