The third level: learning and participation programs in music theatre and structural dependency

调查的对象是音乐剧院作为组织层面的学习和参与方案以及国家和市政剧院体制框架内的发展，特别是在老龄化和精英观众结构的背景下。在四个城市观察区--柏林、德国北部和南部以及“新的”联邦州--的综合分析程序包括以文件为基础的对音乐剧制作、学习和参与方案以及参与人员的话语分析，并借助经验方法。这一理论概念还基于“第三层次”的思想，根据这一概念，调解/教育可以被定义为(在战略上和在工作组织中)为音乐剧院捆绑新的教育学和公共关系概念。在社会和政治合法化以及工作领域，学习和参与方案在作为一种社会实践的文化教育和在营销方面参照文化产业的交流领域之间摇摆不定。根据当地和地区观众组成、文化政治发展和剧院内部进程的不同，通过调解解决文化崩溃现象的方式是不同的。在第二个资助期，将进行研究，以确定在多大程度上可以确定其他欧洲国家在音乐剧院调解方面的类似发展。随着意大利(伦巴第)和英国(西米德兰兹)的音乐戏剧教育，两个国家和地区将被包括在该项目中，在音乐戏剧教育的基础上，可以分析音乐戏剧的合法化、(去)制度化的趋势和重组与音乐戏剧专业化的关系。对于所有例子，将使用话语分析并借助定性调查来审查本组织中心的音乐戏剧教育的合法性、治理和工作流程问题。还将审查日冕危机造成的变化。

The object of investigation is the aspect of learning and participation programmes in music theatre as an organisational level and development within the institutional framework of state and municipal theatre, especially against the background of ageing and elitist audience structures. The analytical procedure in a combination of methods for four urban areas of observation - in Berlin, in the north and south of Germany and in the "new" federal states - comprises document-based discourse analyses of music theatre productions, learning and participation programmes and the participating personnel with the help of empirical methods. The theoretical concept is also based on the idea of a "third level", according to which mediation/education can be defined as the bundling (strategically and in the organisation of work) of new concepts of pedagogy and public relations for music theatre. In the social and political legitimation, as well as in the field of work, learning and participation programs are found oscillating between cultural education as a social practice and areas of communication with reference to the cultural industry in terms of marketing. The phenomenon of enculturative breakdown has proven to be variable in the way it is addressed through mediation, depending on local and regional audience composition, cultural-political developments and the internal processes of the theatres.In the second funding period, research will be conducted into the extent to which comparable developments in the mediation of music theatre in other European countries can be identified. With music theatre education in Italy (Lombardy) and the United Kingdom (West Midlands), two countries and regions will be included in the project in which, based on music theatre education, the legitimation, tendencies of (de)institutionalisation and reorganisation of music theatre can be analysed in relation to the specialization of music theatre. For all examples, questions of legitimation, governance and work processes with music theatre education in the centre of the organisation will be examined using discourse-analysis and with the help of qualitative surveys. The changes caused by the Corona crisis will also be examined.
