More about Bright Star Touring Theatre:
Bright Star Touring Theatre is a national touring theatre company based in North Carolina. Our mission is simple: to challenge, engage, and delight audiences all over the world.
In 2003, Bright Star launched its first touring production of A Dickens Tale, our two-person version of the Charles Dickens classic “A Christmas Carol,” which was followed up with The Lady of Bullyburg in 2004. Seeing a need for more programming that told diverse stories, Bright Star began offering Black History shows in 2005, beginning with Heroes of the Underground Railroad. Now in our current season, Bright Star is excited to have programs touring all across the country – from the Florida Keys to the Seattle Space Needle.
A state-of-the-art center for technology, information, literacy creativity and community. Equipped with a Makerspace, local history and genealogy room, teen space, and study rooms.
