On Saturday, November 20, 2021 the Dallas Summer Musicals 2021 Gala featuring a full performance of Hamilton will raise funds to support these initiatives and more! As one of the first galas and Broadway productions since the pandemic.

For more than 80 years, Dallas Summer Musicals (DSM) has been presenting and promoting excellence in live
musical theater at historic Fair Park. In addition to onstage performances attended by more than 300,000
people annually, DSM’s outreach initiatives serve more than 40,000 individuals in 100+ zip codes in
collaboration with more than 100 partner organizations in North Texas through:
• DSM’s partnership with Dallas ISD which sparks curiosity, joy and innovative thinking in the classroom.
• Give A Kid A Seat, which provides thousands of promise-filled youth from underserved communities in
North Texas free and subsidized tickets with accompanying engagement activities, to attend DSM
Broadway shows. For many of them, it is their very first time in a theater.
• DSM’s High School Musical Theater Awards, which honors the artistic talents of our youth and
celebrates them with their own version of the Tony Awards each spring, and
• DSM’s video series Black Art Matters, which provides a voice to local, regional and national Black artists
showcasing their art and experiences, how one shapes the other, and how Black identity is viewed and
portrayed in the arts community.
