Proposed Measurable Outcome(s)

150 people of a variety of backgrounds experience a specific combination of art forms for the first time. 90% of the participants indicated that they felt more tolerant or open to new experiences. We will track audience feedback through surveys, audience/participant count, informal post-show conversation, emails, and social media. Surveys will also ask for demographic information and reasons for attending.
