For AUDIENCES and PERFORMERS: Several years ago, CGOA moved from a donate-at-the-door model to a ticketing model, with discounts for members, seniors and youth. Ticketing helps CGOA track attendance and capacity.
I think ticketing and price structure is generally appropriate and fair as is. Keep it.

Ticket prices should be raised.

Overall ticket prices should be reduced.

CGOA should return to a free-will donation at the door, with no ticketing.

All or most performances should be free.

This question is for PERFORMERS: Thinking back on your ensemble's rehearsal schedule (generally, 90 min-120 min per week), do you feel that the amount of time was adequate to prepare for performances?
Too much time was spent in rehearsal (too many rehearsals per performance)

Yes, the time was usually adequate, the ensemble was prepared

Sometimes the time was adequate

Sometimes or often the time was not adequate, the ensemble needed additional weeks or rehearsals

This question is for PERFORMERS: If you could make a change so that rehearsals were optimal in relation to performances, which would you choose?

Longer rehearsal times each week

Satisfied with the way things are

Fewer performances to prepare for

This question is for both AUDIENCES and PERFORMERS: Last Spring, CGOA posted a statement in support of Black Lives Matter. In general, how do you feel about CGOA taking a stand or voicing an opinion about social, political or other important causes?
It is appropriate, depending on the cause.

It is inappropriate for CGOA to take any kind of political or social stand on current events or issues.

CGOA should reflect its position through choice of programming, rather than posted statements.
