Welcome to the 2025 DASH Awards Program!
This year, we celebrate the remarkable achievements of our member groups — over 120 strong — who continue to deliver outstanding theatre experiences across our region. We’re also thrilled to welcome new groups into the program, further enriching our vibrant community.
A heartfelt thank you to our dedicated team of consultants. Your hard work, thoughtful evaluations, and commitment to learning make this program possible. We are deeply grateful for all you do.
As we continue to evolve, we’re building on important changes introduced last year — including eliminating gender-specific performance awards, a key step in our ongoing commitment to diversity, equity, and inclusion. This was just the beginning, and we look forward to further enhancing the program to reflect community theatre's dynamic, inclusive spirit.
We also want to recognize the member groups leading the way in accessibility, making theatre more welcoming to all audiences. From closed captioning and ASL interpretation to large-screen displays, these efforts highlight the power of theatre to bring everyone into the story.
Thank you for being part of the DASH community. Together, we’re shaping a future where theatre is exceptional— accessible, inclusive, and reflective of all the voices that make our stages shine.
