Proposed Measurable Outcome(s)

Audience will be introduced to an interactive program where they will be singing and dancing along with the performers to the music and stories presented by the programmers. Having an program on screen as well as live performers will be something new for our patrons.

Measurable Outcome(s)

Audience evaluations were collected at the end of the performance. Everyone who filled them out stated it was a wonderful performance, engaging the children in active participation with dance and music while telling stories and teaching about animals during quiet times in the program. Even the children who were old enough to fill out the evaluations reported how much fun it was. Watching the smiles and laughter on the children's faces attested to how much fun they had.
