As we bring our 15th Anniversary season to a close with The Bodyguard, we’re filled with gratitude—for the artists who’ve shared their talents, the staff and crew who’ve poured their hearts into every detail, and most of all, for you, our audience, whose unwavering support makes this all possible.

This season has been a celebration of the fifteen year journey we've taken together—from our earliest days in a high school auditorium to becoming a resident company at the Broward Center. With every production, we’ve grown stronger, bolder, and more committed to bringing you theatre that moves, challenges, and entertains.

Looking ahead, we’re thrilled to share our 16th season with you—featuring Catch Me If You Can, Disney’s Frozen, Beautiful: The Carole King Musical, Hairspray, and Jagged Little Pill. It’s a lineup full of energy, emotion, and unforgettable music.

But we won’t pretend it’s easy. Regional theatres across the country are facing challenges like never before, and Slow Burn is no exception. The truth is: we need you now more than ever. Your ticket, your applause, your donation—each one helps us continue creating the bold, professional theatre you’ve come to expect from us.

Thank you for being part of the Slow Burn family. Here’s to the past 15 years—and the fire that keeps us burning into the future.

With gratitude and excitement,
Matthew & Patrick
