Welcome to Starlight Musical Theatre
Producing shows since 2010
Welcome to the website of Starlight Musical Theatre, one of the finest and most professional amateur musical theatre companies in the Highlands. Our company has become renowned for pushing the boundaries of amateur theatre, leaving audiences amazed by the talent, the high level of production quality and the general professionalism of our musicals. We love what we do, and whether you fancy joining our company, or coming along to see one of our shows, then we reckon you will too.
Next Production
After being extremely disappointment by its cancellation in both 2020 and 2021 due to Covid, we are delighted to announce that our 2024 production will be "The Sound of Music".
This show tells the story of the young postulant Maria Rainer, whose free spirit has trouble fitting into the rules and regulations of Nonnberg Abbey. Commissioned by the Mother Abbess to serve as the governess for seven motherless children, Maria transforms the von Trapp family home from a place of dour rules and regulations to one filled with joy, laughter and music.
With music and lyrics by Richard Rodgers and Oscar Hammerstein II, the Sound of Music has become a play beloved around the world. This show captures a personal tale of growth and hope amidst the horrors of World War II.
