Proposed Measurable Outcome(s)

This project will provide rehearsal space, technical support and critical feedback to ten new performance works as they are being developed, culminating in 3-4 public performances for each piece, playing to an estimated total festival audience of 700. Using facilitated protocols, each of the participating artists will receive feedback from his/her peers and conversely will provide feedback to the other participating artists. Evaluation methods for this project include final reports from artist participants, written public comments and/or reviews on social media, audience/participant count and ticket sales.

Measurable Outcome(s)

725 audience members experienced new performance work developed over a five-month period by ten different lead artists/collaborations. Our post-program evaluation showed that 100% of participating lead artists/collaborations experienced significant artistic and/or professional growth through their participation in the WIP/IA cohorts and New Works four Weeks Festival.
