Proposed Measurable Outcome(s)

We would like to see 1000 audience members for this production, with 40% or more as first time Sandbox audiences. We want to pay all participating artists a living wage of $15/hr. Attendee surveys and ticketing metrics will include demographic information, as well as their previous audience experiences with Sandbox Theatre. Based on funding and fundraising, our final project expenditures budget will show participant stipends.
