Proposed Measurable Outcome(s)

We hope to achieve paid attendance at this concert of 450 or more. We also hope to achieve successful performance of the works, both technically and musically. We will measure paid attendance from sales reports provided by the Chanhassen Dinner Theater box office. To evaluate successful performance of the works, we rely on audience survey feedback, feedback from the Chanhassen Dinner Theatres sound and production crews, JazzMN's Artistic Director, and feedback from JazzMN board members on audience reaction to specific selections or to the performance in general.
