Proposed Measurable Outcome(s)

375 audience members will attend the performance of 4 World Premiere dance works and 1 Minnesota Premiere dance work choreographed by 4 choreographers, danced by 12 company members and includes a collaboration with a spoken word artist. 30% of audience members will participate in/respond to one of the offered audience engagement activities (survey, post-performance discussion, rehearsal video blog), 50% of survey respondents will feel connected to the dance works performed. Alternative Motion Project (AMP) will evaluate this project through the number of audience members, the percentage of audience members involved in at least one engagement activity, audience feedback surveys, post-performance feedback/discussion, review of show and rehearsal videos, feedback interviews with artists. These results will be shared and analyzed by AMP's board for a final evaluation.

Measurable Outcome(s)

4 choreographers created 4 new works (without performance) that featured 14 different artists from 2 art forms (spoken word/dance). AMP Rehearsal Vlogs got 1,914 views (avg. 127 views/vlog), showing a need for more consistent audience engagement opportunities for connection. AMP created one new Screendance filmed, that received 259 views. 60 people attended a Screendance release viewing online.
