Proposed Measurable Outcome(s)

325 audience members will attend the performance of three new dance works and three repertory works danced by 14 company members and includes collaborations with three additional artists. 30% of audience members will participate in/respond to one of the offered audience engagement activities (survey, post-performance discussion, rehearsal video blog), 50% of survey respondents will feel connected to the dance works performed. Alternative Motion Project (AMP) will evaluate this project through the number of audience members, the percentage of audience members involved in at least one engagement activity, audience feedback surveys, post-performance feedback/discussion, review of show and rehearsal videos, feedback interviews with artists. These results will be shared and analyzed by AMP's board for a final evaluation.

Measurable Outcome(s)

290 people attended a dance performance that featured 18 different artists from 3 art forms. Audience Surveys showed 64% of the audience sees 0-3 dance performances per year, showing a need for AMP to cater to those that don't regularly see dance. AMP Rehearsal Vlogs got a total of 675 views showing a need for more consistent opportunities for audiences to connect to the process.
