While you're visiting Kansas City, don't miss the opportunity to experience summer magic at Starlight Theatre. This one-of-a-kind outdoor theatre has been a Heartland treasure since 1951. Repeat visits to Starlight Theatre will become a new summer tradition after you enjoy one of our live Broadway musicals or a concert performed on our state-of-the-art Cohen Community Stage.

Starlight Theatre is affordable and fun for all ages. Make it an entire evening under the stars -- start with dinner at our Helzberg Diamonds VIP Club or ENCORE! Deck, enjoy pre-show entertainment on the Spotlight Stage and join in a free backstage tour before the show!

I always look forward to watching a great Broadway show at Starlight in the summer. Dress light -- it can get hot if there isn't a breeze out. The theater is in kind of a "valley". Also, avoid sitting farther than the first few rows of the Plaza 1-5. You really will need binoculars if you sit any farther back.
