Proposed Measurable Outcome(s)

THE NAKED I: 6 will employ and engage 75 local LGBTQ artists to create a new production focused on the stories of queer and trans individuals. The work will be shared with approximately 1000 patrons. Qualitative: Audience surveys will show that patrons' consciousness of/about queer identity will be shifted/changed/expanded as a result of attending THE NAKED I: SIX, and artist surveys will show that at least 90% of participating artists responding that participation in this production helped them grow as artists. THE NAKED I: 6 will be evaluated through anonymous survey given to both patrons and artists involved, audience demographics and feedback from playbill surveys; event media attention; box office reports and house count; and feedback from post-show discussions.

Measurable Outcome(s)

THE NAKED I: RECOGNIZED employed and engaged 25 queer and trans artists who helped create a world premiere virtual production focused on their own personal stories and experiences. Involved artists were surveyed and 100% responded that participation in this production helped them grow as artists.
