Produce clear, compelling, and relevant productions. Goal is to increase attendance at productions from 11,000 in 2012 to 14,000 in 2014. Increase attendance to all Festival events to 24,000 by 2017.

Quantitative evaluation will track numbers of activities, participants, and partners.
GRSF continues to produce clear, compelling, and relevant productions. This season, we're just shy of 11,000 patrons attending ticketed events. We approximate an additional 2,500 have attended non-ticketed events. Major expansion of our education and community outreach program. Chill with Will` has doubled to two free student performances and our complimentary library ticket program has expanded from three to seven regional libraries.
