| Summary: | 碩士 === 國立臺北藝術大學 === 文創產業國際藝術碩士學位學程 === 104 === This paper characterises the role of entrepreneurship in the performing arts scene of contemporary Taipei and discusses how innovations in the organizational forms for the production, distribution and consumption of cultural goods or services lead to innovations in the creative work. The research was the result of a three month internship at Butterfly Effect Theatre (蝴蝶效應劇團), during which the company mounted an English language production of Yasmina Reza’s Tony Award-winning and Broadway hit comedy God of Carnage (文明的野蠻人) at The Lab Space (實演場). It answers the three following research questions: (1) Is Butterfly Effect Theatre an example of entrepreneurship? (2) How does entrepreneurship impact the creative work in a performing arts organisation? (3) And finally, what role does the entrepreneur play in the arts ecosystem of Taipei? For this purpose, we present three case studies: (1) the story behind Butterfly Effect Theatre and the opening of The Lab Space, (2) the experience of mounting a theatre-in-the-round production of God of Carnage and (3) the case of Thinkers’ Theatre (思劇場) and the performing arts ecosystem of contemporary Taipei.
