Audience Data and Research
This book presents a wide range of new audience studies research in the performing arts to provide a diversity of perspectives from scholarship, policy, management and practice. It explores the insights different methodologies, carried out with different kinds of audiences, can contribute both to our immediate understanding of audiences and to the future development of audience research. The book showcases research across the myriad fields that contribute to audience scholarship, highlighting the ability of audience research to engage thinkers and practitioners, from across often falsely divided art forms and academic fields. Together in one volume, these different methodologies explore the potential complementarity of evolving approaches to audience research and provide an in-depth opportunity for investigating innovative methods. Focusing on the need to understand audiences in a deeper and richer way, this volume offers a crucible of thinking and re-thinking about how society understands the impact of arts and culture on audiences. Audience Data and Research: Perspectives from Cultural Policy, Arts Management and Practice serves as a catalyst to stimulate new critical debate on the potential of empirical audience research to provide fresh insights into questions of audience enrichment and cultural value. It will be a key resource for scholars and researchers of audience studies, media and cultural studies, performance arts research, arts management, and cultural policy. This book was originally published as a special issue of Cultural Trends.
Revitalising Audience Research
The revitalisation of audience studies is not only about new approaches and methods; it entails a crossing of disciplines and a bridging of long-established boundaries in the field. The aim of this volume is to capture the boundary-crossing processes that have begun to emerge across the discipline in the form of innovative, interdisciplinary interventions in the audience research agenda. Contributions to this volume seek to further this process though innovative, audience-oriented perspectives that firmly anchor media engagement within the diversity of contexts and purposes to which people incorporate media in their daily lives, in ways often unanticipated by industries and professionals.
A Reader on Audience Development and Cultural Policy
This book brings together, for the first time, twenty-two chapters on arts marketing and audience development. Edited and curated to be accessible to both academics and those working in the cultural sector, the book provides an invaluable resource for anyone interested in the traditions, philosophies and approaches which underpin our ideas about increasing audiences for the arts. Covering a range of topics and international perspectives, it tells the story of how arts marketing and audience development came to be such an important management practice in the cultural sector. This edited volume discusses the relationship of audience development to arts management and cultural policy and outlines the foundational arguments which have led to contemporary debates around everyday creativity and cultural democracy. By providing vital insights from both the theory and practice of arts marketing and audience development, the book will serve as an excellent reference work for researchers. Simultaneously, this book will also be an invaluable read for those working in cultural leadership and arts management roles. The chapters in this book were originally published in various Routledge journals.
