Proposed Measurable Outcome(s)

With Frank Theatre's production of The Cradle Will Rock, 1,000 people will see this 1930s-era musical by Marc Blitzstein. We will provide an accurate audience count, we will survey the audience for a deeper response to the work, and we will host post-show discussions after our Sunday matinees.

Measurable Outcome(s)

The production was attended by more people than we projected, for a total of 1,321 audience members. The artists' surveys showed that nearly the entire cast felt they had grown artistically from the project.
