Thank you for supporting Dallas Black Dance Theatre during this year’s North Texas Giving Day.
Dance is for everyone and an essential part of the community. We want you to see YOURSELF at DBDT! We cannot wait to see you virtually or in person at the Dee and Charles Wyly Theatre for our 46th Dallas Season!
Thank you for supporting our dancer’s salaries, low-cost Academy tuition, and the cost of socially distanced seating for the ongoing safety of our patrons.
