Creating New Experiences for Future Generations

Dallas Theater Center will engage, entertain, and inspire our diverse community by creating experiences that stimulate new ways of thinking and living.  We will do this by consistently producing plays, educational programs, and other initiatives that are of the highest quality and reach the broadest possible constituency.

Since 1960, the nationally recognized Education Programs at DTC have served to engage the audience more fully and completely with the art, connecting the work we do with the world in which we live.
