Proposed Measurable Outcome(s)

400 people will attend the performance of Laboratory II and 6 emerging female artists will create new works of contemporary ballet. A student performer survey will show that at least 50% of the student performers will experience performing contemporary ballet for the first time; an audience survey will show that 30% of the audience experienced the art form of ballet for the first time. We will evaluate our outcomes via surveys in the programs for the audience and surveys to the student performers. We will also collect post performance feedback from the 6 emerging female artists on their experience making a new work and well as feedback from the student performers on being part of said new work(s).

Measurable Outcome(s)

The most significant artistic outcomes were that all six choreographers successfully created, stage and costumed a new work with a cast of dance students. Over 50% of dance students performed contemporary dance for the first time. 43% of the audience was under eighteen years of age; and 38% of the audience experienced a BCL dance performance for the first time. 152 audience members attended, not 400.
