  • DANCER of the WEEK – Dominic North Fri 5 August
    DANCER OF THE WEEK – Dominic North Fri 5 August Matthew Bourne’s Sleeping Beauty is in Singapore this week at the Esplanade Theatre before heading to Shanghai, China next week. Nick Kyprianou, our Audience Engagement Coordinator got the chance to speak to Dominic this week. Dominic has been with New Adventures since 2004 and has generated quite a following worldwide, performing in many principal roles for the Company. He was first seen in Swan Lake as a Swan and is currently performing as Leo in Sleeping Beauty. You can also catch Dominic as Angelo in cinemas worldwide in the 2015 film recording of The Car Man. Later this year, Dominic will also be playing the role of Julian Craster, who leading lady Victoria Page falls in love with, in the World Premiere of Matthew’s production of The Red Shoes, inspired by the Powell and Pressburger film. A young Dominic being jazzy! When did you start taking dance classes? I started dancing when I was about 9 I think. My twin sister was already taking classes, then this new girl joined the school and started dancing in the same class as her. I fancied her and thought that dance was a good way in. The relationship ended when we went to different secondary schools, it was very sad – haha! Where did your formal training take place? I was at the Nydza School of Dance in Bingley, just outside of Bradford, from when I started dancing until I was 18. I then auditioned for full time dance courses at Laines Theatre Arts, Bird College, Central School of Ballet and Northern School of Contemporary Dance.

  • Independent Television Producers in England
    Negotiating Dependence: Independent Television Producers in England Karl Rawstrone A thesis submitted in partial fulfilment of the requirements of the University of the West of England, Bristol for the degree of Doctor of Philosophy Faculty of Arts and Creative Industries, University of the West of England, Bristol November 2020 77,900 words. Abstract The thesis analyses the independent television production sector focusing on the role of the producer. At its centre are four in-depth case studies which investigate the practices and contexts of the independent television producer in four different production cultures. The sample consists of a small self-owned company, a medium- sized family-owned company, a broadcaster-owned company and an independent- corporate partnership. The thesis contextualises these case studies through a history of four critical conjunctures in which the concept of ‘independence’ was debated and shifted in meaning, allowing the term to be operationalised to different ends. It gives particular attention to the birth of Channel 4 in 1982 and the subsequent rapid growth of an independent ‘sector’. Throughout, the thesis explores the tensions between the political, economic and social aims of independent television production and how these impact on the role of the producer. The thesis employs an empirical methodology to investigate the independent television producer’s role. It uses qualitative data, principally original interviews with both employers and employees in the four companies, to provide a nuanced and detailed analysis of the complexities of the producer’s role. Rather than independence, the thesis uses network analysis to argue that a television producer’s role is characterised by sets of negotiated dependencies, through which professional agency is exercised and professional identity constructed and performed.

Chalaby1 Abstract This article revisits the history of television (TV) formats—concepts of TV shows that are licensed for local adaptations—focusing on scripted entertainment. While the TV format revolution of the 1990s bypassed scripted formats, they have been catching up in recent years. This article analyzes both the reasons for this late rise and the factors behind the recent growth. It argues that the adaptation of scripted formats is more complex, and risks remain higher than for other genres. The underlying economics of their production and distribution also differ from nonscripted formats. The stars aligned when demand for drama increased worldwide, Hollywood studios began to mine their catalogues, new exporters and scripted genres emerged, and knowledge transfer techniques improved. Finally, this paper analyzes the significance of the rise of scripted entertainment in the global TV format trading system. Keywords global television, Hollywood, scripted entertainment, transnational television, TV formats, TV genres Introduction The history of television (TV) formats—concepts of TV shows that are licensed for local adaptations—is now well documented.
