THE SCENIC ARTS IN SPAIN

The aim is to present the current state of the structures in which the performing arts are developed in Spain at different levels of production, exhibition, legislation on performing arts, festivals and exhibitions, theatrical circuits, financing, etc. In all these cases, the analysis is based on the two-pronged perspective of State responsibility on these issues, mainly through the Ministry of Culture - and more specifically INAEM - and, on the other hand, analyzing the work that Is carried out by autonomous governments and local entities. Reference will also be made to the role of the different languages of the State in the performing arts as a whole and to the importance of the public sector vis-à-vis the private sector in the economic sphere.
