    Expenses $24,874
  • Merrily We Roll Along was an artistic achievement that involved approximately 30 individuals and/or organizations. Marketing was partnered with multiple other organizations in the community, as part of a collaborative "Spring of Sondheim." This production made renowned composer and lyricist Stephen Sondheim's works accessible to hundreds of consumers in Dane County, across several months.

  • Book of Days was an artistic achievement that involved approximately 30 actors, technicians, designers, and organizations. Although it was the smallest production in terms of community exposure, it brought the greatest number of new faces to our organization out of all our productions from the past summer. We also attempted to make this production more accessible to the community, by incorporating a sign language interpreted performance in our run.
