Smile Door Theater : Musical Event for Single-Parent Families

The Smile Door Theater is an event that invites single-parent families and their supporters, who often have fewer opportunities to attend musicals, to experience an authentic musical performance.

On the day of the event, 10 Daiichi Sankyo Group employees volunteered as receptionists, guides, and escorts for guests at the venue. Throughout the day, children, as well as their families and supporters, were all seen enjoying the event with broad smiles.
