Proposed Measurable Outcome(s)

Children and adults will experience live theater together and get a sense of social interaction and how to act while viewing a public performance. The audience will learn about bullying and ways that it can upset and hurt the person being bullied. The show is a parody of a classic tale and encourages participants to discover the original version that can be read in the book/novel. The audience will witness a live theater production that encourages interaction between the performers and the audience.

Measurable Outcome(s)

Select comments from participants:
"Really thought it would be just a play, but it was much more."
"I thought it was going to be a show of the Little Mermaid; it was funny & nice that it taught lessons of being nice to others."
