Arts Activities Support

GOAL: To develop a high-quality production about denim jeans with a diverse and inter-generational creative team that creates space for conversation about the history and current state of American Democracy. INDICATORS: In post-performance evaluation surveys and informal conversations, majority of audience members describe their experience of DENIM as positive and engage in nuanced and meaningful conversations about the themes of the work. They describe feeling interested in and challenged by the material. 1000-1600 audience members attend the production. GOAL: To provide an artistic experience in which artists involved are integral and invested INDICATORS: Majority of Artists describe their experience as positive, rigorous, affirming and artistically fulfilling. Artists also express interest in continuing work with Theatre Novi Most. Completing a production in the black, as we have historically, is also a marker of success for us. Evaluation: Audience members are invited to fill out surveys including demographic data and questions about the work. Theatre Novi Most also actively engages audience members through formal and informal conversations about the work. There will be discussions with the audiences following all performances of DENIM. Evaluation: Artists are invited to an honest conversation about the process and the show called a "debrief" following the final performance and are invited to share their experiences which will be written down and noted.
