    Season Announcement

    Shucked, & Juliet + more fly into Broadway Dallas' 2024-25 season

    Get ready, musical theater fans: Broadway Dallas just announced its 2024-25 season, and it's a doozy.

    Done in partnership with Broadway Across America, the season includes eight subscriber-eligible shows and two season add-ons. In the mix are four Dallas premieres and the return of several audience favorites.

    It launches with the Tony Award-winning musical comedy Shucked, which made a statement on Broadway with its clever marketing and recently announced its New York closure.

    The musical began life at the Dallas Theater Center in 2015 as Moonshine: That Hee-Haw Musical but has since evolved into the "corn-fed, corn-bred American musical" that will play the Music Hall at Fair Park December 3-15, 2024.

    The series continues with the high-flying musical that has been thrilling audiences of all ages for close to 70 years. A newly reimagined Peter Pan is being brought back to life in a new adaptation by celebrated playwright Larissa FastHorse, directed by Emmy Award winner Lonny Price, and choreography by Lorin Latarro. It plays the Music Hall December 25, 2024-January 5, 2025.

    & Juliet flips the script on the greatest love story ever told, with a book by Schitt's Creek writer David West Read and a score composed of pop anthems like "Since U Been Gone," "Baby One More Time," and "Roar."

    The musical asks: What would happen next if Juliet didn’t end it all over Romeo? She ditches her famous ending for a fresh beginning and a second chance at life and love — her way. It plays the Music Hall January 28-February 9, 2025.

    Back to the Future: The Musical is adapted for the stage by the iconic film’s creators Bob Gale and Robert Zemeckis and directed by Tony Award winner John Rando. Original music by multi-Grammy winners Alan Silvestri and Glen Ballard joins hit songs from the movie, including “The Power of Love,” “Johnny B. Goode,” “Earth Angel,” and “Back in Time.”

    When Marty McFly finds himself transported back to 1955 in a time machine built by the eccentric scientist Doc Brown, he accidentally changes the course of history. Now he’s in a race against time to fix the present, escape the past, and send himself ... back to the future. It runs March 18-30, 2025, at the Music Hall.

    Two familiar favorites are up next: Mamma Mia! April 15-27, 2025, and Disney's The Lion King for a nice long run June 4-July 3, 2025. Both play the Music Hall, and both are a guaranteed good time.

    Broadway Dallas heads to the Winspear Opera House for Life of Pi, the astonishing Broadway and West End sensation told with jaw-dropping visuals, world-class puppetry, and exquisite stagecraft.

    After a shipwreck in the middle of the Pacific Ocean, a 16-year-old boy named Pi survives on a lifeboat with four companions: a hyena, a zebra, an orangutan, and a Royal Bengal tiger. It runs August 5-17, 2025.

    Prior to its planned Broadway bow, a new production of The Wiz is touring the country.

    This groundbreaking twist on The Wizard of Oz changed the face of Broadway, from its iconic score packed with soul, gospel, rock, and finger-snapping ‘70s funk to its stirring tale of Dorothy’s journey to find her place in a contemporary world. A dynamite infusion of ballet, jazz, and modern pop brings a whole new groove to easing on down the road. It plays the Music Hall, September 9-21, 2025.

    The first season add-on is the return of Come From Away, the remarkable true story of 7,000 stranded 9/11 passengers and the small town in Newfoundland that welcomed them.

    Cultures clashed and nerves ran high, but uneasiness turned into trust, music soared into the night, and gratitude grew into enduring friendships. It runs at the Winspear Opera House, January 14-19, 2025.

    Hadestown is the second add-on, intertwining two mythic tales — that of young dreamers Orpheus and Eurydice, and that of King Hades and his wife Persephone — as it invites you on a hell-raising journey to the underworld and back.

    The winner of eight 2019 Tony Awards, it plays the Music Hall, February 25-March 2, 2025.

    About 300 art visionaries, collectors, and philanthropists gathered on Saturday, September 20 to celebrate and support Dallas Contemporary at its 2025 Gala and Benefit.

    The high-powered evening - which has become one of the most anticipated black-tie bashes of fall - was presented by Headington Companies and Ann and John McReynolds, and led by DC executive director Lucia Simek along with artistic co-chairs Shayna Fontana Horowitz and Robyn Siegel and auction chairs Peter Augustus Owen and Robyn Siegel.

    The event immersed guests in the world of Dallas Contemporary from the moment they arrived: Atmospheric still lifes were projected both at the entrance and outside the gallery from Dallas-based photographer Shayna Fontana Horowitz. One of the museum’s three main spaces transformed into a silent auction viewing gallery showing, where guests could bid on on works donated by various artists. Hors d’oeuvres and specialty cocktails from Tango Room were passed during the opening reception.

    As attendees sat down to dinner inside the exhibition "You Stretched Diagonally Across It: Contemporary Tapestry," an impromptu procession took place: Students from Booker T. Washington High School for the Performing and Visual Arts, dressed in custom costumes designed by members of the Visual Arts Cluster, strutted through the gallery. The room was decorated with sculptural floral arrangements by Concepto that turned ordinary materials — grasses, moss, tomatoes, and pomegranates — into otherworldly designs.

    Dinner featured courses from several Headington restaurants, including Sassetta (black pepper and Parmesan panna cotta with beet-balsamic focaccia) Mirador (escarole Caesar with breadcrumbs, Parmesan, and capers), The Joule (Texas wagyu short rib with sweet potato pavé, sunchoke, endive, and a bourbon-bacon demi-glace), and Tango Room (a lemon confection of white chocolate yuzu mousse, meyer lemon, and cardamom crumble). RG|MX wines and Madame Zero Champagne kept the drinks flowing.

    The on-stage program included film about DC directed by Dallas-based filmmaker Christian Vasquez, a luxury live auction conducted by Brett Sherlock of Christie’s, and a surprise announcement that Dallas Contemporary’s admission will remain free to the public through 2026 due to a gift of $100,000 from the Eugene McDermott Foundation.

    Those who wanted to continue the night headed to the high-tempo afterparty hosted by Shyboy, the coming-soon hi-fi bar, featuring a live set by New York-based dj GE-OLOGY. Guests could dance the night away and enjoy late-night bites and drinks like signature highballs and softserve ice cream.

    In total, the gala raised a jaw-dropping $1 million "in support of Dallas Contemporary’s mission to champion contemporary artistic practices through exhibitions, performances, and programs," they say.

    Spotted in the crowd, enjoying the night, were Elizabeth Hooper O'Mahoney, Ashley Varel, Shayna Fontana Horowitz, Rand Horowitz, Nadia Dabbakeh, Ramiro Garcia, Pablo Arellano, Sal Jafar, Christina Jafar, Ann McReynolds, Brad Owen, Peter Augustus Owen, Thomas Fuelmer, Ebony Lewis, Bobby Miller, Kristina Kirkenaer-Hart, Faisal Hallum, Ceron, Brian Bolke, Jill Parker, Rod Sager, Mark Agnew, Emily Clarke, Robyn Siegel, and hundreds more.
