Proposed Measurable Outcome(s)

As a result of this project, school aged children will be more inclined to participate in the school theater as well as summer theater and the audience, after experiencing the positive results of theater will be encouraged to further support the arts. . Evaluation will occur through follow-up meeting with project planners, taking note of conversations with audience and participants.

Measurable Outcome(s)

In speaking with the other school staff person, a long term teacher at the school and the other coordinator, both agreed that the theater experience had a marked improvement in mindset of a number of the participants. The definite changes observed in some of the participants, from negative attitudes to a total transformation of outlook, really made a positive impact on the cast as a whole. The dynamics of teamwork in action is more than just the sum of the parts!
