At least 50% of artists cast in the production will be new young actors to YAI's programming. 25% of audience members will be new to the YAI experience as audience members (individuals, families, and community members). YAI is actively working to diversify the participants in our programming. We will survey families who audition for the winter production to find out both where in the city they are coming from and how they heard of the opportunity; Along with a general increase in audience participation, we will survey our audiences to find out where they reside, as well has how they heard of the production and their impressions of it (to predict whether they will return).
This was the second most successful show in this history of the theater by several measures, including ticket sales. The number of diverse participants In this production was over 25%. Our social media presence grew by over 20% from the new theatre patrons learning and following us and helping spread the word of YAI.
