Proposed Measurable Outcome(s)

40% of our audience reports that this production was their first experience with live opera. We will use a post-performance written survey and an online survey offered to those who made online reservations. Data will be examined by an independent evaluator. We will also conduct interviews with host partners regarding how we can make art with their community and their space.

Measurable Outcome(s)

The audience surveys showed that the Picnic Operetta was the first time experience with classical music or opera for 19% of our audience. They reported that they "never attend classical music events".
