Abstract

Through the sponsorship of the Department of Theater, University Wellness Programs, and Sindecuse Health Center, the Western Michigan University Fore Players have presented Great Sexpectations: Fantasies and Fears to over 3,200 students. Combining facilitated discussion with improvisationally-created scenarios, the program address numerous sexual issues in a manner that students relate to and understand. A public relations and marketing plan was created to launch Great Sexpectations on a mid-American tour. The program was divided into five major components: a multi-phase plan, a feature-benefit analysis, the definition of target markets, a timeline for launching a tour, and promotional materials.
