Quantitative: Audience total was 457 (estimated 7 adults, 60 youth). 20 artists participated. Qualitative: While the total number of patrons was less than our original estimate, that number was also 25% higher than our last production at the Cowles, showing a significant increase in our audience there. The number of youth was also less, however the Cowles does not track age for about 50% of the total patrons, and 2 of our ticket discounts were geared towards youth through our community partner, National Alliance on Mental Illness, so that number was likely higher. After every performance we could hear many people gasping, and several people crying. Every aspect of the show surpassed even the initial production from 2007. Moreover, many, many of our peers in the arts community, including many that we do not know personally, have stopped us in lobbies and rehearsal halls to tell us how much they were moved by both production elements and the performances. National Alliance on Mental Illness was thrilled with the outcome.
