STAGES – FALL 2007
Behind The Scenes July 31, 2007 marked the end of the seventh year of the nineyear campaign to build the Dallas Center for the Performing Arts, the first year of the campaign’s construction phase and the conclusion of the Center’s 2007 fiscal year. The campaign’s major accomplishments during the last year in the areas of design and construction, fund-raising, financial management, communications and operations are too numerous to be listed in this article. However, some were so historic in their impact that they merit further comment. Dallas families and organizations committed more than $44 million in new gifts and pledges to help construct the Center, increasing the number of donors of $1 million and above to 100, establishing the campaign to build the Dallas Center for the Performing Arts as the most successful project of its kind in America’s history. During the year, guaranteed maximum price contracts were executed with general contractors managing the construction of the Center’s venues; construction of the first phase of the Center’s underground garage was completed; and construction of the concrete superstructures of the Winspear Opera House and Wyly Theatre began. Conceptual designs were completed for Performance Park, the destination park uniting the venues through nature, and the new Annette Strauss Artist Square, the Center’s outdoor venue. The Center’s logo and branding plan designed by a renowned New York design agency were approved and implemented during the year. Several Dallas foundations and companies funded the creation of the Dallas Center for the Performing Arts Preview Center, a 2,700 square-foot gallery in the Trammell Crow Center, with large-scale models of the Center’s venues and graphic elements portraying the scope of the Center and its impact on the Dallas Arts District. The Center produced ACT TWO in October to celebrate the beginning of construction. The gala, hosted by Julie Andrews and featuring Elton John in concert, generated more than $2 million in net revenue to help construct the Center. Standard & Poor’s upgraded the rating on the tax-exempt bonds the Center sold in 2006, resulting in a recovery of approximately $640,000 of funds to be used for construction. And, the Center confirmed $3 million in sponsorships underwriting the first four years of the production of the new Brinker International Forum, an annual series of events featuring some of the world’s most highly acclaimed performers, artists, scientists and explorers. As we begin the next to the last year in the campaign to build the Dallas Center for the Performing Arts, we do so with a profound appreciation for those who have devoted their time and resources to help plan, design and build the most significant new performing arts center in America since the building of Lincoln Center almost 50 years ago. With approximately 25 months remaining before the Center’s grand opening, the project remains on schedule and on budget, and the cost of the campaign has been contained to only five cents of each donor dollar. It is in this context that we celebrate the achievements of the past 12 months and look forward to the opportunities in the next two years.

Bess Enloe is a founding member of the Dallas Center for the Performing Arts Board of Directors and has played a critical role in many of the Center’s standing committees, including the Wyly Theatre Facilities Committee. Ted Enloe is a managing general partner of Balquita Partners, a family securities and real estate investment partnership and serves on the boards of several major corporations. Mr. and Mrs. Enloe are avid supporters of the arts in Dallas, and have generously contributed to the campaign to build the Dallas Center for the Performing Arts.

Leading Roles Linda Pitts Custard The performing arts in Dallas have always been an important part of Linda Pitts Custard’s life. Her parents supported both The Dallas Opera and the Dallas Theater Center, instilling in Mrs. Custard a love for both organizations. In 1959, she attended the opening production of the Dallas Theater Center with her future husband, Bill Custard. Mr. and Mrs. Custard have also been longtime supporters of The Dallas Opera, watching performances from the same seats at The Music Hall in Fair Park for 46 years. Linda Custard joined the Board in the earliest days of the campaign, and chairs the Center’s President’s Advisory Council. “The Dallas Center for the Performing Arts will be the culmination of three decades of dreaming, planning and building for the Dallas Arts District,” she said. “My family carries the love of the arts from one generation to the next, and we look forward to enjoying performances in the new Center.” Mrs. Custard’s work with non-profit organizations spans the spectrum of arts, education, healthcare and other organizations. She serves on the boards of the Dallas Theater Center and The Dallas Opera. She is also secretary of the Board of Trustees of the Communities Foundation of Texas, Inc. and a trustee of the Hoblitzelle and Dedman Foundations. In 2000, she received the TACA/Neiman Marcus Silver Cup Award for her outstanding contributions to the arts.
Doug Brooks Doug Brooks is chairman, CEO and president of Brinker International. His involvement with the Dallas Center for the Performing Arts began four years ago, when Brinker became the title sponsor of the Brinker International Lecture Series. Since that time, Mr. Brooks has joined the Center’s Board of Directors and has continued to oversee his company’s involvement in the Center with the creation of the new Brinker International Forum. In his role as a Board member, Mr. Brooks’ goal is to ensure that the Center has programming that appeals to a wide range of audiences. “This is the first time I have been involved in an arts organization,” he said. “What draws me to the Dallas Center for the Performing Arts is that it will be a Center for arts and entertainment of all kinds. The types of performers that were featured in the first Brinker series, including Mary Tyler Moore, Robert Redford, John Travolta and Elton John, represent the diversity of performances that people will be able to enjoy at the Center.” Mr. Brooks also serves on the board of directors for Limbs For Life Foundation and the Kenny Can Foundation, and is a member of the Professional Advisory Board of St. Jude Children’s Research Hospital.
Jim Keyes “The performing and visual arts have been a part of my life for as long as I can remember,” said Jim Keyes, the chairman and chief executive officer of Blockbuster Inc. “Though my time and skills are both limited, to this day I paint, sculpt and write music for enjoyment. These skills carry over into my professional life in many ways, creating balance and stimulating creativity.” Growing up in rural Massachusetts, Mr. Keyes had exposure to the performing and visual arts from a young age. Through travels later in life, he experienced performances by some of the great artists in some of the world’s most spectacular venues. “These life-changing experiences gave me an appreciation for art forms that I might not otherwise have developed,” he said. “The Center is not just about spectacular buildings. It is about creating an environment that will attract the best performers in the world who will provide these kinds of experiences to children and adults in our community.” In addition to serving on the Center’s Board of Directors, Mr. Keyes serves on the board of governors of the American Red Cross, the Cooper Institute, the SMU/Cox School of Business and the Dallas Education Foundation. He is also the founder of the Education is Freedom foundation.
