Context: A theatrical producer is a person who oversees all aspects of mounting a theatre production . The producer manages the overall financial and managerial functions of a production or venue , raises or provides financial backing , and hires personnel for creative positions ( writer , director , designers , composer , choreographer -- and in some cases , performers ) . The independent producer usually initiates the production -- finding the script and starting the process . The producer finds the director and pursues the primary goals , to balance and coordinate business and financial aspects in the service of the creative realization of the playwright 's ( and producer 's ) vision . This may include casting , but often only includes casting approval . The producer may secure funds for the production , either through their own company or by bringing investors into the production in a limited partnership agreement . In this business structure , the producer becomes the general partner with unlimited liability , and because of this , often brings in other general partners . The producer probably has optioned the play from the playwright , which includes rights to future production for film and television . The producer earns the right to future ventures because the original theatrical production enhances the value of an artistic property . This right to further options may be included in the royalty agreement . In other duties , the producer may work with theatrical agents , negotiate with unions , find other staff , secure the theatre and rehearsal hall , obtain liability and workers ' compensation insurance , and post bonds with unions . The producer handles the business and legal end of employing staff , as in any business entity . Hiring creative staff and teams generally involves the director and playwright 's approval . The producer hires the production team , including the general manager , production manager , house manager , stage manager , etc. , at their discretion . In many cases , contracts require that the producer use front of house staff ( such as the house manager , box office , ushers , etc. ) and backstage personnel ( stage hands , electrician , carpenter , etc. ) supplied by the theatre . The producer creates and oversees the budget , sets ticket prices , chooses performance dates and times , and develops a marketing and advertising strategy for the production . Hiring a publicist and marketing team is one of the most important responsibilities of the producer . These teams are generally in place before the show is cast . The producer collaborates with the director and all staff to plan a production timeline and deadlines for various aspects of the production to ensure a successful show opening and run . The producer and director oversee this timeline , with periodic re-assessment and modifications as needed . The producer hires accountants , and perhaps already has legal representation . This is important , because of the liability issues mentioned above . All bills , including payroll , must be paid on time , and taxes must be paid . The producer oversees the budget . The theatre owner provides box office services and turns over net ticket sales revenue . If sales fall under a set minimum level , the unprofitable show may close . If ticket sales are good and the show makes a profit , the producer may get 50 % of the net profit , the other 50 % going to the investors . Statistically , highly successful shows with big profits are the exception . Independent commercial production is a high risk business . Another kind of producer is the non-independent , or line producer , who facilitates other people 's projects . A repertory or repertoire or festival or non-profit or amateur organization , in most cases , uses a managing director , and creative decisions fall to the artistic director . In theatres with no managing director , artistic directors often use the title producing artistic director or managing artistic director , to indicate a higher level of responsibility . In the commercial world of Broadway , New York and West End , London and touring , both nationally and internationally , producers are expected to be active members of the team , and their names appear above the show title . However , many `` producers '' are really investors or the theatre owner , and claim no say in running the production . A producer credit occasionally applies to people who perform special important services , such as finding a theatre or a star -- but normally , the credit for such roles is associate producer . The producer works closely with the production team and cast to make all final decisions . The producer , ultimately , is one of the most important roles in a theatrical production ., A song, most broadly, is a single (and often standalone) work of music that is typically intended to be sung by the human voice with distinct and fixed pitches and patterns using sound and silence and a variety of forms that often include the repetition of sections. Written words created specifically for music or for which music is specifically created, are called lyrics. If a pre-existing poem is set to composed music in classical music it is an art song. Songs that are sung on repeated pitches without distinct contours and patterns that rise and fall are called chants. Songs in a simple style that are learned informally are often referred to as folk songs. Songs that are composed for professional singers who sell their recordings or live shows to the mass market are called popular songs. These songs, which have broad appeal, are often composed by professional songwriters, composers and lyricists. Art songs are composed by trained classical composers for concert or recital performances. Songs are performed live and recorded on audio or video (or in some, cases, a song may be performed live and simultaneously recorded). Songs may also appear in plays, musical theatre, stage shows of any form, and within operas., An audience is a group of people who participate in a show or encounter a work of art, literature (in which they are called "readers"), theatre, music (in which they are called "listeners"), video games (in which they are called "players"), or academics in any medium. Audience members participate in different ways in different kinds of art; some events invite overt audience participation and others allowing only modest clapping and criticism and reception., Music is an art form and cultural activity whose medium is sound and silence, which exist in time. The common elements of music are pitch (which governs melody and harmony), rhythm (and its associated concepts tempo, meter, and articulation), dynamics (loudness and softness), and the sonic qualities of timbre and texture (which are sometimes termed the "color" of a musical sound). Different styles or types of music may emphasize, de-emphasize or omit some of these elements. Music is performed with a vast range of instruments and vocal techniques ranging from singing to rapping; there are solely instrumental pieces, solely vocal pieces (such as songs without instrumental accompaniment) and pieces that combine singing and instruments. The word derives from Greek  ("mousike"; "art of the Muses"). In its most general form, the activities describing music as an art form include the production of works of music (songs, tunes, symphonies, and so on), the criticism of music, the study of the history of music, and the aesthetic examination of music. Ancient Greek and Indian philosophers defined music as tones ordered horizontally as melodies and vertically as harmonies. Common sayings such as "the harmony of the spheres" and "it is music to my ears" point to the notion that music is often ordered and pleasant to listen to. However, 20th-century composer John Cage thought that any sound can be music, saying, for example, "There is no noise, only sound.", Stagecraft is the technical aspect of theatrical, film, and video production. It includes constructing and rigging scenery, hanging and focusing of lighting, design and procurement of costumes, makeup, procurement of props, stage management, and recording and mixing of sound. Stagecraft is distinct from the wider umbrella term of scenography. Considered a technical rather than an artistic field, it is primarily the practical implementation of a designer's artistic vision., In European academic traditions, fine art is art developed primarily for aesthetics or beauty, distinguishing it from applied art that also has to serve some practical function, such as pottery or most metalwork., An actor (or actress for females; see terminology) is a person who portrays a character in a performance. The actor performs "in the flesh" in the traditional medium of the theatre, or in modern mediums such as film, radio, and television. The analogous Greek term is, literally "one who answers". The actor's interpretation of their role pertains to the role played, whether based on a real person or fictional character. Interpretation occurs even when the actor is "playing themselves", as in some forms of experimental performance art, or, more commonly; to act, is to create, a character in performance., Theatre or theater is a collaborative form of fine art that uses live performers, typically actors or actresses, to present the experience of a real or imagined event before a live audience in a specific place, often a stage. The performers may communicate this experience to the audience through combinations of gesture, speech, song, music, and dance. Elements of art, such as painted scenery and stagecraft such as lighting are used to enhance the physicality, presence and immediacy of the experience. The specific place of the performance is also named by the word "theatre" as derived from the Ancient Greek  (théatron, "a place for viewing"), itself from  (theáomai, "to see", "to watch", "to observe")., A performance, in the performing arts, generally comprises an event in which a performer or group of performers present one or more works of art to an audience. Usually the performers participate in rehearsals beforehand. Afterwards audience members often applaud., Dance is a performance art form consisting of purposefully selected sequences of human movement. This movement has aesthetic and symbolic value, and is acknowledged as dance by performers and observers within a particular culture. Dance can be categorized and described by its choreography, by its repertoire of movements, or by its historical period or place of origin., Subject: theatrical producer, Relation: field_of_this_profession, Options: (A) art (B) composer (C) history (D) literature (E) lyrics (F) music (G) performing arts (H) television (I) theater (J) video
