400 young people and adults attended an original production of HAMLET by William Shakespeare, performed by an ensemble of independently-educated teenagers. Rubrics showed that 90% of ensemble members reported an increase in creative/artistic expression after participating in the development/performance of HAMLET and audience surveys showed that 70% of respondents are more likely to see a Shakespeare play after attending the production. Promotional results, audience attendance/reaction, and ensemble experiences will be qualitatively/quantitatively evaluated post-performance. The evaluation plan includes creation of one rubric for ensemble and one survey for audience, created by SYT staff in collaboration with members of the artistic team for the project.
100% of ensemble members reported an increase in creative/artistic expression after participating in the development and performance of HAMLET. We had no audience attendance and were unable to collect audience feedback; however, we estimate that approx. 100 people watched the premiere of the audio drama virtually (50 livestreams and 2-4 viewers/streaming household, as families watched as a group).
