Audience Description The performance aspect of the project will be open to all members of the <br />community. W e anticipate that the audience for this performance will be <br />similar in composition to that of our 20th anniversary show held in <br />September 2022. That sold-out performance had an attendance of <br />approximately 300 spectators and included patrons of all ages, from <br />toddlers to senior citizens. Although no formal assessment was performed, <br />we estimate that the racial and cultural composition of the audience was <br />consistent with the demographics of Orange County, which as per the US <br />Census Bureau is 69% non-Hispanic W hite, 12% Black or African <br />American, 9% Hispanic or Latino, and 8% Asian, with the remaining <br />percentage accounted for by other or multiple racial/ethnic designations. <br />There is also a secondary audience for the choreography developed in <br />conjunction with this project, which includes residential groups for whom we <br />provide on-site performances. This group comprises residents of retirement <br />communities, long-term care facilities, and hospitals who would otherwise <br />be precluded from or have difficulty attending a performance at a standard <br />community venue due to lack of mobility, infirmity, or health risk. The <br />retirement community and long-term care facility audiences are <br />predominantly elderly and frequently have medical conditions and/or <br />physical, sensory, or cognitive disabilities. Footnotes has a long history of <br />performing for these groups multiple times per year. <br />DocuSign Envelope ID: EF1143BC-A16C-4CBC-9A67-8394E5952E55
