ACHF Arts Access
As a result of this project, adult actors will explore classic stage shows with greater emotional depth and in the case of Cabaret, a non-comedic musical with strong content. We will evaluate our project by meeting with project planners and discussing all aspects of the productions. We will talk to audience members, artists, and staff to get feedback to use in future productions. We will also look at numbers of people who audition for the shows, the quality of the people auditioning, and how many people our audiences comprise.
Our outcome was different--perhaps better--than we had originally intended. The post-show discussions were well-attended and deeper than we had hoped for. We will use what we learned to shape future seasons and be confident that certain audience members are interested in discussing serious works and that our actors/directors benefit as well.
