Broadway Dallas News | January 2023

On the 60th Anniversary of Martin Luther King, Jr.’s visit to the Music Hall at Fair Park, we unveiled our first public exhibition, South Dallas Stories: Fair Park Uprooted, commemorating the vibrant, though problematic history of Fair Park/South Dallas and its community members. The exhibit is featured in our lobby next to the box office and is open to the public, Monday-Friday from 9 am-5 pm, as well as two hours before shows.

The exhibit is generously underwritten by The Addy Foundation.

Hershey Felder As George Gershwin Alone will make its Dallas Premiere on February 26 at the Music Hall at Fair Park. George Gershwin Alone tells the story of America’s great composer and incorporates Gershwin’s best-known songs.  Mr. Felder brings to life the spirit and talent of the legendary composer and pianist for the first time in history, leading the audience through the fascinating rhythms of Gershwin’s legendary songbook and his tragically short life.

We are pleased to announce the appointment of seven new members to our Board of Directors and nine new members to our Advisory Board. The newly elected individuals will help support Broadway Dallas’ mission to present and promote excellence in live musical theater for diverse audiences of all ages, impact the lives of children and families through community outreach and education, and enrich the cultural landscape of North Texas.

Ben Leal, president of The Addy Foundation, speaks about their support of Broadway Dallas: “The Addy Foundation has been a longtime supporter of Broadway Dallas and all the transformational work it does to ensure so many Dallas ISD students have access to arts. We are committed to providing exposure to the arts, leading to understanding and acceptance of varying ideas, perspectives, and cultures. The Addy Foundation was formed in 2015 by Bill and Lydia Addy to further their long history of philanthropy and volunteerism in the North Texas region. Bill and Lydia have designated The Addy Foundation as a legacy foundation with the hope that it will outlive them and continue serving the region for generations to come.  The Addy Foundation prides itself in its ability to provide timely, meaningful support to organizations fostering innovative and proven solutions that best serve those in need. Broadway Dallas breaks down barriers and exposes so many to cultural competency with their robust and inclusive programming.”
