The nonprofit Broadway Dallas is best known for presenting the most popular and critically acclaimed touring Broadway shows to North Texas audiences, including the most recent national tours of HAMILTON and HAIRSPRAY. Broadway Dallas also takes very seriously its mission to support and uplift underserved members of the Dallas community.
To that end, during the five-week engagement of HAMILTON, Broadway Dallas asked theatergoers to donate dental hygiene products to support its partner CitySquare, the Dallas-based nonprofit that aims to fight the causes and effects of poverty through service, advocacy and friendship. The result was an astounding 232 pounds of donated toothbrushes, toothpaste, mouth wash and more.
CitySquare's mission resonates deeply with Broadway Dallas, which is committed to not only entertaining but also giving back to the community it serves. In 2024, Broadway Dallas proudly supports CitySquare by organizing donation drives at each of its performances throughout the season. This ongoing collaboration underscores Broadway Dallas's dedication to making a positive impact beyond the stage curtains.
Additionally, during the engagement of the national Broadway tour of HAIRSPRAY, Broadway Dallas hosted a donation drive to collect hair care items for CitySquare. Patrons donated more than 350 bottles of shampoo and conditioner plus hundreds of brushes, ribbons, hair ties and of course, cans of hairspray. HAIRSPRAY, known for its infectious energy and message of inclusivity, was the perfect performance for Broadway Dallas to channel its community-focused initiatives. By collecting hair care products during the show's run, Broadway Dallas aims to make a meaningful contribution to CitySquare's mission.
