THEATRE STRUCTURE OF PRODUCTION HOUSES
Production houses are theatres which put on their own productions, rather than booking in plays from other theatre companies. I have researched into two the theatre structure of two production houses, The Polka Theatre and The Royal Court.

THEATRE STRUCTURE OF THE POLKA THEATRE
THEATRE STRUCTURE OF THE ROYAL COURT
DIFFERENCES BETWEEN BOTH THEATRES
As you can tell just by looking at the two diagrams, the Royal Court has a lot more job roles than the Polka. This is because the Polka is a much smaller theatre so they don't need as many people, instead one person may do a few things which would be covered by different job roles at the Royal Court. Also the Polka is a charity which relies on donations so they probably can't afford to hire as many people.

(1) The Polka also does a lot of work to make theatre accessible for disabled children and children with autism. |
The Royal Court is a bigger theatre at 465 capacity. This could be because it produces a wider range of theatre than just children's theatre. It is "dedicated" to new work so appeals to people with a very strong interest in the theatre or perhaps casting agents and other people who are linked to the business who are looking for new talent.
