Proposed Measurable Outcome(s)
This grant will allow us to produce two musicals during our regular summer season. Also, this musical allows more performers featured roles, rather than smaller chorus parts.Personal observation of activities, audience numbers, interviews.
Measurable Outcome(s)
Audience decreased this year from 632 to 518, which is an 8% drop. This may be due to the way we've changed our seasonal tickets and/or the fact that The Fantasticks isn't a very well-known show in this area.
