Proposed Measurable Outcome(s)

As a result of this project, school-aged children and community members will feel excited to participate in another similar opportunity and will have a new awareness of theater production and the trained professional performers. Evaluation will occur through meeting with artists, talking with audience members, count of actual audience members, and talking with the planning committee after the show is completed to gain knowledge of how the successful and meaning full the program was portrayed.

Measurable Outcome(s)

The historical society learned through the large number that attended the program that this program was a good subject matter for the area. The number attending the evening program doubled our normal attendance for programming of this nature. The performers also worked hands-on with local theater students teaching them different tricks and tips. They were also able to bring their program to over 400 school children introducing them to the theater.
