Chapter 4 of Part Two of the book "Bringing Down the House: The Crisis in Britain's Regional Theatres," by Olivia Turnbull is presented. It discusses the impact of the New Right ideology to regional theatres which are slumped to more difficult position as the government has emphasized a free-market economy with scant regard for the Arts. It details the consistent low government's annual grant-in-aid and the Conservative's insistence that theatres should operate as commercial business.
