Backdoor Theatre is a non-profit community theatre. Our mission is to promote the performing arts through education, leadership development, and volunteerism, while providing quality entertainment to the Greater Wichita Falls area. Backdoor has a reputation for producing high quality Broadway-style productions. We have two stages, the Main Stage and Dinner Stage, which have produced over 600 productions and concerts. Established in 1971, Backdoor Theatre was originally in the basement of the Weeks Mansion at Kell & Harrison. Theatre patrons entered through the door around back, which created the name “Backdoor Theatre”. After a couple of years we moved to a building at 10th and Travis, finally moving to our current location in 1976. Our current location was donated by W Erle White. It was originally People’s Ice House and was built in 1920. Backdoor raised the floor in the tower to create the Main Stage Theatre and its lobby. Most of the work was done by volunteers and a lot of generous donations. If you look closely you can still see the crane pulley at the top of the tower in the Main Stage Theatre. The thick brick walls create a terrific acoustic sound, not to mention great insulation. In 1981 we opened the Dinner Theatre. Instead of raising the floor we built levels from the ground up to create a unique and intimate atmosphere for a perfect theatre experience. ​ Over the past 4 years we have added wheelchair accessibility throughout the theatre, including wheelchair accessible restrooms, and a redesigned courtyard. We are continually improving our facility to accommodate our patrons, volunteers and supporters.

At its core, MayaWorks is about creating work for women so that they can financially support their families and become fully contributing members of their communities. MayaWorks helps women transform their skills into a means of financial support for their families by creating a market for the traditional arts of Maya artisans. Textile products are distributed within wholesale and retail markets and are also sold by U.S. women in their local communities. Giving Guatemalan women an opportunity to earn an income from their skills gives them self-confidence and hope for themselves, their families and their communities. For U.S. women, reaching across borders to give a hand up to help women in developing countries allows them to participate in economic justice on a global level.

Dandelion Dancetheater is situated at the crossroads of dance, theater, music, community activism, healing, and new performance forms. The company is committed to the individual and intersecting artistic visions of Kimiko Guthrie and Eric Kupers. Our work is built from a fascination with interdisciplinary experimentation, in-depth collaboration, vulnerability, risk-taking, and the truths that come from looking at the world from an “outsider” perspective. We view the exploration of the endless possibilities of the human body as a potent means for personal and collective growth and share this exploration with diverse populations through performance, teaching, speaking, community events, video, and writing. As an organization, Dandelion Dancetheater is a launching pad and creative home for several ongoing, in-depth projects. Most projects involve multiple branches of Dandelion, and so stretch across categories.
