Proposed Measurable Outcome(s)

Sparkle Theatricals aims to engage 1500 audience members at twenty performances over the course of a 10-day performance run of The Room With Closets; the company aims for 95% of audiences and artists that participate to report that their experience inspired them to make choices and allowed them the agency required. In addition, the company aims for 100% of The Room With Closets' creative team to indicate that working on the project taught them a new skill or piece of knowledge. Sparkle Theatricals will evaluate the audience count using box office reports provided by The Southern Theater. As in past productions, the company will collect anonymous, post-performance survey responses from audience members and the creative team to evaluate the degree to which participants made choices, had agency, and learned new things.
