Proposed Measurable Outcome(s)

We presented our traditional three shows and did evaluations for all of them. We now have on-line evaluation that is automatically emailed to our attendees after each show. Paper evaluations have been used for the cast and crew. We also held our Children's Theater Training during "Annie" last summer and participants did a pre and post-written evaluation. Other outcomes are planned for 2019. Achieved most of the proposed outcomes.
