The Good Harbor Hill Payers' goal is to bring our neighbors together in the magic of our seasons, the natural world and the history and lore of our home here on Lake Superior. Measurable outcomes include our continued ability to attract both citizen artists and audience members from diverse backgrounds and age groups. We evaluate the success of our endeavor by the numbers of participants in our workshops and the audience numbers we attract. We review videos of the performance for artistic merit and audience reaction.
The Good Harbor Hill Payers' goal is to bring our neighbors together to celebrate Life, as experienced in various seasons, the natural world, and the history and lore of our home here on Lake Superior. Measurable outcomes include our continued ability to attract both citizen artists and audience members from diverse backgrounds and age groups. This year we created a 30 minute, original, outdoor puppet pageant titled "To Bee or Not To Bee". Our theme this year was the importance of bees as pollinators. We learned about and shared the remarkable industry and service of bees. The performance featured live music, performers on stilts and a wide array of puppets and masks. Over fifty individuals attended our free puppet workshops, where we created the puppets, masks and costumes used in the performance. Almost all of these workshop volunteers continued on to rehearsal and performed in the pageant. Approximately 850 people came to watch the final performance. The performance is available on YouTube.
