Proposed Measurable Outcome(s)

Provide a local arts participation opportunity to people of all backgrounds by involving over 25 youth and over 40 adults in producing two high quality community theater productions. Provide 1500-2000 audience members with a high quality, live theater experience in their local area including serving 2 senior/disability communities by producing a relaxed performance designed for enhanced accessibility. The success of this project will be evaluated by tracking attendance, gathering feedback from the audience, and evaluations sent to cast members, staff and volunteers working on each production. Community participation is measured by area business support, and meeting financial goals.

Measurable Outcome(s)

52 Adult artists were engaged in this season's productions and post-production focus groups were overwhelmingly positive about their artistic experience. twenty youth participated as cast members or crew and rated their experience as very positive. 1300 audience members attended performances this season.
