Program areas at Starlight Theatre Association of Kansas City

Coordinated by its events division, Starlight makes space available for community use. Furthering its outreach to the greater Kansas City community, Starlight accommodates on-site rentals of the venue when not staging its own theatrical or fundraising events. Outside event rentals, mostly to fellow nonprofits, allow Starlight to be utilized at times when the facility would otherwise sit empty. Starlight does not actively market or otherwise solicit rental business, and Starlight events broadway, concert, community engagement, and philanthropic always take priority on the annual booking calendar.
