Proposed Measurable Outcome(s)

As a result of this program, our theater audiences both established and new, will realize the TRFACT is here to stay through good times and bad through high performance shows. Evaluation will occur through a follow-up meeting with project planners, taking careful count of audience numbers, and coming together as a board with personal observation notes to discuss for future improvement.

Measurable Outcome(s)

Because our audiences were so small due to COVID and restrictions, we weren't able to judge what we were hoping to. Instead, we forged ahead and put our energy into our youth and their growth.
