evaluation

The show as a whole worked well and was successful, to evaluate this the front of house team sent out questionares to see a public response to the performance as a whole.
the questionares  told us some areas upon which we could improve the experience of the show such as:
-the heat of the auditorium was too intense so audience members gave feedback that an improvment if the budget of the allow would be to get air conditioning which keep the auditorium cool for the audience and the preformers as it would make the atmosphere mor bareable and the audience would be able to focus more on the preformance than the heat.
-another was about the food on offer...this i belive was due to the layout of the tables which gave it a restaraunt feel which made the auidence have an air of expectation, we only served nibbles but the auidence didnt feel this was appropriate to the setting.
- the microphones were also complained about..this is a situation we thought would come up as the quality of the mics are something we as a department would like to improve after the previous preformance.Another reason for this would be the jacks being overloaded, this and the performers in a rush to get on fitting thier own mics and doing them incorrectly...a solution to this would be to either have more crew members to fit mics or tutor the preformers how to do their own correctly.


Things that worked well were:
- the american theme worked well as the theme was continuous from the waitresses western outfits and their fake american accents to the red white and blue theme which ran from the tables to even the lighting design.
-the lighting design worked well...as it went in with the american theme and isolated areas of preformance, and set the mood and atmosphere for the play.
-the way we worked as a team overall to achieve the quality of preformance with the lighting and sound working in tune with one another through the commands of the DSM.
