Proposed Measurable Outcome(s)

As a result of this program, the communities housed in Roseau county and the environs, ages from small children to older adults, will have enriched understanding and appreciation for theatre, having experienced and enjoyed events provided by WST. Evaluation will occur through anecdotal and written responses provided by attendees and individuals involved in providing theatrical performances, and directors will provide written feedback after their final performance for the board to consider as we move forward.

Measurable Outcome(s)

Measuring the change and scope of our organization and those involved has shown us that we have an age group of teens that is growing. WST must adapt to the change and look at the needs of that age group.
