MAT looking for feedback for future shows

Montana Actors' Theater is inviting the public to take a short survey about how to improve the troupe and the way it serves the community.

Artistic Director Jay Pyette said the public can go to the MAT website and a prompt will ask people if they would like to take the survey. People can also reach the website from the MAT Facebook page.

Pyette said the survey is open until the end of this month, when the troupe will review the results. The survey is open to everyone and, Pyette added, "the more (who respond) the better."

"We're going into a strategic planning session in January and this is just to give us more information, public input, on what people think and what they want to see and what they'd like us to do differently," he said. "All those things that are really important so that we serve our public better."

The survey itself is 16 questions and asks what people's general idea of MAT is, what their favorite play has been, what they would like to see MAT become and what MAT could do better.

Pyette said that MAT worked together as a team to come up with the questions to ask the public.

The survey is anonymous and people are not required to answer all the questions.
