Proposed Measurable Outcome(s)

As a result of this program children will have access to creating a quality theater experience in a rural area. Evaluation will occur through a participant questionnaire and notes related to personal observation.

Measurable Outcome(s)

We were amazed at the growth in confidence that we witnessed in the children on stage. When we reached performances times, they stood proudly on stage and projected their characters to one of the largest audiences we have encountered at the Arts Center.
