high-quality dance productions, and offering dancers exceptional dance education
oppo(unities. ln the past. EDE's dance productions have included The Nutcracker,
Cinderella, The Wizard of Oz, The Little Mermaid, Alice in Wonderland, and more.

choreography experience from all over the United States. The talents of our leaders
create beautiful dance productions that are a joy for the audience members to watch
and for the dancers to perform.

the more challenging roles in some of its productrons and will continue to do so.
Theses professional dancers not only provide inspiration and serve as role models

EDE is working to become a statewide draw for dances and audience members
alike through the prdsentation of high-quality, family-friendly, affordable productions,
in addition to premium dance instruction.
The goal with our productions is tuvofold:
1) to provide an unparalleled oppodunity for our local dance community to perlorm in
live shows to large audiences
2) to bring audiences from around the region to appreciate an support the dance arts
in Ellensburg while experiencing amazing entertainment.
Longer term goals of EDE include creating opportunities for dance competitions to
be located in Ellensburg and create an even larger audience and appreciation for
dance.
For lhe 2022 season. EDE will create marketing materials and a reach that we have
never attempted before. We know that we attract tourism audiences from outside the
region to attend The Nutcracker and we want to do the same for our spring shows.
EDE will work wiih a marketrng consultant to identify audiences to target and create
a professional image for our company. We have incredible facilities in Ellensburg
that can support large audiences and the partnership with CWU will allow r:s to
capitalize on that as well.

Des.ribe lhe prior success of your eventlactivityltaciliiy it allraotjotr toutists.
We were unable to produce a show during 2021 due to limits on gathering and an
inability to secure venues due to covid.
We have attached numbers from CWU, who sells tickets for The Nutcracker. These
historic numbers show an audience attending from a broad spectrum of the region.
ln 2018, ofthe 500 ticket purchases who bought online (there are substantial ticket
purchases at the door who are not tracked for address), about 40% are from more
than 50 miles away.
Those number reflect a very small - to negligible - amount of advertising anpvhere
outside of Ellensburg.

EDE will work the Encore Media group to publish our 2022 season and target niche
performance publications in the Seattle area. We will also work with the WA State
Arts Alliance and other statewide ads organizations to promote our season.
Locally, EDE will work with the Chamber of Commerce to use social media, print
media, and radio to highlight our show and profile our dancers.
The draw of professional dancers will easily attract a broader audience and our past
products show that clearly.
Additionally, ihe collaboration agreement with CWU allows some productions to be
included in the CWU Theater Season and therefore included in all CWU mailings
and advertising. as well as the CWU website- Tickets for these shows are sold
through the CWU ticket offrce and plans are in the works to allow the Kittitas County
Visitor Center as a ticketing location as well.

5l Future Plans
Please explain what plans exist to allow this project to become self-sustaining. lnclude any plans for ticket sales,
event sponsors, and other cost-recovery models.
Future Plans *EDE strives to use tickets sales from the previous productions along with donations
from arts patrons, sponsors, and fundraisers to fund future produciions and help us
grow
EDE engages in annual fundraising, has member dues, and looks for sponsors for
every production. We have a very committed board of dance parents and community
members who act as boosters for our company and support our dancers in every
way.
For The Nutcracker. EDE's collaboration agreement with CWU states that 30% of
the ticket sales and fee of $1,500 are paid to CWU. This pays for the use of
McConnell Hall. CWU Lighting and Stage staff, Stage Manager, House Manager and
other expenses.
Also, this arrangement allows the production to be included in the CWU Theater
Season and therefore included in all CWU mailings and advertising, as well as on
the CWU website. Tickets for The Nutcracker are sold through the CWU iicket office
and plans are in the works to allow the Kittitas County Visitor Center as a ticketing
location as well.
EDE works to keep ticket prices low so our communlty members can afford to attend
and perhaps support us with larger donations over time-

EDE had plans for a spring production and the Nutcracker for winter. Both had io be
cancelled due to COVID-19. Our rehearsals start months ahead of the performances
and we were unable to secure performance and rehearsal spaces, and could not
gather a sufiicient number of dancers to ensure successful productions.

Additional lnformation The Nutcracker is only performed every other year. 2020 would have been our
Nutcracker year, so we have not been able to collect daia for a Nutcracker
production since 2018. EDE did perform Swan Lake in 2019, bui attendance was
tracked by the Central Washington Dance Academy and lhey did not collect ticket
sale information.
