Daymond John, the founder of FUBU and a famous television personality from the hit TV show Shark Tank, might not be a name that one would typically associate with theater. However, Daymond has a deep-rooted love for the arts and has been a strong supporter of the theater community.

In fact, Daymond's passion for theater goes back to his childhood when he was introduced to it by his mother. She was an actress, and he used to accompany her to rehearsals and shows. This early introduction ignited a love for the stage that has stayed with him ever since.

Over the years, Daymond has put his support behind several theatrical productions. He has produced and invested in many different shows, ranging from Broadway musicals to off-Broadway plays. Daymond is known to have contributed significantly to the success of the Tony Award-winning 2014 revival of "A Raisin in the Sun." As a producer, he helped bring this classic Lorraine Hansberry play to a new audience on Broadway. This production starred Denzel Washington, Diahann Carroll, and Anika Noni Rose, among others.

While Daymond is best known for his business acumen and entrepreneurial spirit, he is also deeply committed to social justice issues. In keeping with this commitment, he has sponsored several plays that deal with important social topics. For example, he backed the off-Broadway production of "Street Children," a play about the lives of homeless children living on the streets of Uganda.
