Project participants/audiences indicate a positive experience engaging with TU Dance's diverse artists and presented content. Obtain qualitative feedback/comments on public performance and post-show talk between artists and audiences; gather comments from students, venue partners on unique value of TU Dance artists/performances/activities.
Audiences reached locally responded positively to performances, and the resulting film is of a high quality for the work sharing statewide. We obtained attendance information from The O'Shaughnessy, including zip code data to aid in our reporting of geographic reach to date.
