Proposed Measurable Outcome(s)

As a result of this project, our community will learn new skills, gain understanding of theatre concepts, become more connected and grow both together and independently. Evaluation will occur through community feedback and a voting process provided through an anonymous group of individuals.

Measurable Outcome(s)

We were able to entertain a broader audience. We tried out a new play that had a diverse age span and brought in larger audiences than expected for our dinner theatre. We were able to collect data through the expected means. Lives were changed because new faces came to the stage and new theater goers came to the performances.
