Proposed Measurable Outcome(s)

Increased marketing, fundraising and staffing strategies will enable our traveling SkyVault Theatre to more effectively bring its high energy, audience-interactive performance to more communities around the state and to find and/or develop more effective organization or venue partners in more communities in our region. By an increase in the number of performances we have outside of our regular base in Rochester.

Measurable Outcome(s)

We have really doubled our performance opportunities at the Minnesota Renaissance Festival and/or performances in Pipestone, Stewartville, etc.
