Proposed Measurable Outcome(s)

20% will tour to Minnesota communities, strengthening and building upon existing relationships, and forming new ties in areas we have not toured before. Through audience surveys, facilitated post-show discussions, and informal conversations, we will determine how this tour has advanced our reach in Moorhead and Winona, and forged new connections in Saint Cloud, Mankato, and Duluth. 2: We will bring our work to venues in Saint Cloud, Mankato and Duluth where we have not previously been able to tour. Through observation and post-tour meetings we will evaluate how these communities benefitted from the opportunity to work with an experienced touring company like 20% Theatre, as well as through other partnerships forged through this project.

Measurable Outcome(s)

20% Theatre Company toured to more communities in Greater Minnesota, forming and/or strengthening ties in each area. 2: 20% Theatre Company toured to three new communities the company had not previously visited.
