Proposed Measurable Outcome(s)

Ticket sales will show 280 people attended the original production over five performances. Surveys given to our 45 artistic collaborators indicate at least 70% involved expanded their creative practice repertoire. To evaluate the audience count, we will receive box office reports from The Southern Theater. To evaluate our artistic collaborates response to the project, we will hand out and circulate surveys and hold postmortem discussions.
