Proposed Measurable Outcome(s)

Increased artistic activity in ARTIST DEVELOPMENT, ROUGH CUTS, and PRODUCTIONS as demonstrated by numerical metrics.  We will offer one Composer-Librettist Studio, refine our curriculum for our Institute, restore our ROUGH CUTS programs to eight presentations, and create at least one new fully-staged production. 2: We will refine our MANAGEMENT FELLOWSHIP PROGRAM, whose participants will provide written evaluations.  We will expand the curriculum for our three Management Fellows by increasing their access to professional mentors and additional professional development activities.

Measurable Outcome(s)

We accomplished these activities as planned. We offered a CL Studio in June 2016, we refined our Institute Curriculum, we increased Rough Cuts to eight including the Art Crawl, and we mounted a new production of THE FANTASTICKS. These are all documented. 2: We employed three new fellows and have increased their access to activities, advisors, and mentors. Fellows participated in our Institute, our CL Studio, our production, and Rough Cuts, and met with advisors as planned. The program was evaluated by a professional consultant, along with written evaluations by the Fellows.
