Starlight Theatre
Starlight Theatre is a popular live music venue located at 4600 Starlight Rd. where you can count on unique and world-class performances every time you visit KCMO. Located in Swope Park, it’s known for Broadway shows, the best concerts in town, and a rich educational program for all ages. Starlight Theatre is available to rent for any occasion.
A landmark in the city since 1950, and non-profit since 1951, there had been talks of an outdoor theatre in KCMO since the 1930s by the time it opened. The theatre cost $1.75 million to build, and is worth nearly $50 million today. No trip to KCMO is complete without a show or two at the Starlight Theatre, but popular shows sell out fast.
