Magical Starlight Theatre, providing quality, family-oriented theatrical presentations

Magical Starlight Theatre was formed in September 1994 and is a program of The Naperville Park District. Magical Starlight’s express mission is to produce quality, family-oriented theatrical presentations.

Magical Starlight strives to include community actors and production staff of all ages in its productions. Included have been such classics as The Wizard of Oz, Charlie And The Chocolate Factory and Peter Pan. Magical Starlight provides a unique opportunity for adults and young people to work together as peers and learn from one another. In addition, a conscious effort is made to include as many family members as possible in all aspects of each production.

Performances by Magical Starlight are held at Naperville Central High School with two productions a year.

If you are interested in working on a production team for Magical Starlight Theatre, please submit your request to info@MagicalStarlightTheatre.org with your interests, experience, and contact information.

Due to renovations at Naperville Central High School, we are unable to produce a Fall 2009 show.
