"The future depends on animating traditional performance buildings with non-traditional programmes and delivering traditional programmes in non-traditional spaces"

General and management covers a myriad of topics, from the cost of running performance buildings and the savings that can be made, through the views of specialists on access for all, to the factors that make a venue a success, both in terms of its design but also in its operations. As well as considering how arts buildings are financed, there are ideas about working to a budget, as well as a review of major recent and current projects and an analysis of the changes in culture caused by international arts building.
