Proposed Measurable Outcome(s)

Theater Latté Da will stage a season of new and classic musicals that have relevance to the lives and experiences of diverse Minnesotans. Theater Latté Da will assess the outcome through audience feedback (talkbacks, lobby comments, emails, social media), and audience attendance (sales records). 2: Restaurants and other businesses in Northeast Minneapolis will see increased patronage when Theater Latté Da stages shows at its home in the neighborhood. Theater Latté Da will assess the outcome through interviews with Northeast Minneapolis area businesses.

Measurable Outcome(s)

5,531 audience members, including those from 27 Minnesota counties, attended theatre and musical performances from 80 artists over the term of the grant. Theatre L'Homme Dieu uses the Ovationtix system for ticketing and CRM (customer relationship management) and used reports from that system to quantify the number of audience members and determine the counties served. 2: In 2016 Theatre L'Homme Dieu partnered with the Andria Theatre (formally AAAA Theatre) to provide youth education classes for 60 students. The outcome is reported using data provided by Ann Hermes, the current Executive Director for the Andria Theatre.
