Each summer DPAC presents a musical theatre intensive for Broadway enthusiasts ages 10-17.
Community
The arts have a tremendous power to bring communities together through shared experiences. At DPAC, we are proud to contribute to our community, not only by offering a diverse calendar of events each season, but also through educational and youth driven programming, charitable contributions, and affordable ticket initiatives.
Since 2008, DPAC’s community engagement initiatives, known as “Heart of the Arts”, have been offering exciting opportunities for communities in Durham and beyond.
The DPAC Rising Star Awards is the regional competition that brings together high school musical theater students in the Triangle and surrounding areas to perform and compete for the chance to represent DPAC in the national finals in New York City each summer.
Through this program, high school students will be exposed to the diversity of what is offered at DPAC and get a behind-the-scenes look at the industry.
This new community program is for Triangle area high school students who both love smiling and saying hello AND seeing Broadway at DPAC’s biggest shows.
Special savings for City of Durham residents to most Broadway, plus some concerts, comedy shows and special events.
Recognizing those in the Triangle who are doing great things in service of their communities and or families. Nominate someone you know to receive a VIP night out at DPAC!
DPAC invites local charities, non-profits, youth-driven organizations, and more to sign up to receive special complimentary seat offers to touring events who chose to gift seats to the community.
Truist Broadway Members can use this service to donate seats which will go unused to Durham Public Schools, North Carolina Central University, and Durham Tech.
