Proposed Measurable Outcome(s)

We have two goals in presenting "Joseph." The first is to provide the opportunity for at least 60 adult and 22 youth artists from the community to participate in our musical production. Our second goal is that at least 850 adults and 148 youth will purchase tickets. To measure how many artists contributed to the show, we will count all of the cast and crew names listed in the program. To measure how many audience members saw the show, we will count the number of tickets sold.

Measurable Outcome(s)

By counting each name in the program as either an adult (18 or older) or as a youth (under age 18), we served 70 adult and 15 youth artists. By counting the number of tickets sold at adult, senior, and student rates, 1,352 adults and 334 students purchased tickets to see the show.
