Community Arts

In fall 2018, Collective Unconscious Performance will create and present the world premiere of Le Cirque F?erique (The Fairy Circus), for eight performances at the Art Box in Minneapolis, MN, October 5-14, 2018. We have a conservative estimate that 260 people will attend the production during its performance run at the Art Box, and we will work to attract as many as 500 people. 95% of collaborating artists indicated their ability to positively express themselves during the creative process, and felt that they were a part of a rehearsal environment of collective artistic ownership. We will evaluate our anticipated outcomes if we meet our audience/participant count, and if we receive positive responses in our post-production participating artist surveys. In order to evaluate whether we curated a rehearsal environment of collective artistic ownership, we will ask all artists involved to participate in anonymous, long-form surveys where they will be asked to respond to both open-ended questions where they may describe their collaborative experiences, as well as multiple choice questions where they may rank their experiences in a more quantitative manner. Constant feedback with the artists is also a part of the creative process.
