ACHF Arts Access
Our project will allow over 25 youth ages five to 18 and over 35 adults the opportunity to be in the cast or orchestra for Fiddler on the Roof. This production will provide 800-1200 audience members with six productions of high quality, live theater in their local area. The success of this project will be evaluated by responses gathered from the audience, the positive relationships that are established between everyone working on the production, and expanded community participation in terms of area business support, and financial stability. The 4 Community Theatre board meets with the production staff to evaluate and survey responses are collected from cast and crew.
