Backdoor Theatre

GET READY TO WAKE ME UP BEFORE YOU GO GO!

This year, Backdoor is cranking up the volume taking it back in time, and raising funds for our 2025 Summer Youth Musical (SYM) - "BACK TO THE 80S"!

Did you know that Backdoor Theatre was gifted our current building with the promise of continuing the Summer Youth Musical? And here we are! Keep that promise for over 50 years now!

For over 50 years, Backdoor Theatre has been WALKING ON SUNSHINE, bringing the arts to life in our community, and we’re not about to stop now! By donating today, you’re not just supporting the arts you're making a difference by:

✨ Nurturing Local Talent: Your righteous generosity empowers local YOUTH actors, directors, tech designers, and crew members to show off their skills and creativity on our stage. Just like the KIDS IN AMERICA, our Summer Youth Musicals are decked-out productions that are cast and crewed by the raddest middle and high school students around!

✨ Creating Lasting Memories + Friendships: Your bodacious contribution helps us produce an experience so magical that these youths and their families will be talking about it for years—like, totally unforgettable! SYM is where lifelong friendships and memories are forged, just like your fave mixtape. It's a TOTAL ECLIPSE OF THE HEART!

✨ Inspiring the Next Generation: Our youth are the future of our acting community, and Wichita Falls as a whole! Your donation supports a safe space that introduces young minds to the world of theatre, sparking their passion for creativity, collaboration, and empathy. NOTHING'S GUNNA STOP US NOW from inspiring the future!

✨ Strengthening Community Culture: Backdoor Theatre brings people together and fosters a sense of unity that only the arts can achieve. So many of Wichita Falls’ most radical actors got their start in SYM—maybe even your favorite!

So, DON'T WORRY, BE HAPPY! 

Your support during Texoma Gives will help us hit our goal and make this production totally rad for our community! Together, we can create magic that’ll have everyone saying I'VE HAD THE TIME OF MY LIIIIFE (and I owe it all to Backdoor The-a-tre!)

Any funds donated over our goal will go toward other Backdoor Youth Education programs— 
Theatre School, Summer Theatre Academy, and Creative Play Camp!
