Abstract

The main purpose of this research is to contribute to the literature related to management studies and studies on performing arts education by shedding light on the important roles played by formal education at schools for training performers and management talents. The research compares the process of educational modernization for Chinese traditional theater and Japanese Takarazuka Revue to illuminate respective characteristics and developmental patterns. Although Japan and China have very different modernization processes and political systems, both cases of performing arts have been relying on school institutions for human resources development which has evolved from apprenticeship or something alike. By this comparison, the research then clarifies the ways schools are involved in improving skills and inculcating occupational identities of performers and management talents, thereby constantly producing capable young talents. Finally, the research shows how the result can provide a better view on vocational education for future research in the related field.
