5-Star Theatricals

We've been quite busy behind the scenes...The stage is set, the lights are on, and we're bringing live theatre RIGHT TO YOU!

Theatres may not be able to be open right now, but that won't stop us from sharing a unique performance with our audience family.

For one night only, we present THANKFUL: a song and dance variety show hosted by our own beloved Shrek, the talent powerhouse Trent Mills! This is our way of giving back to you, our patrons who have supported us for over thirty years.

We will be streaming THANKFUL for FREE on our website at http://5startheatricals.com/thankful/! Live theatre brings people together, lifts spirits, and allows the audience to forget their troubles like nothing else. THANKFUL is our way of expressing how thankful we truly are to all of the performers who have graced our stage, all the hard working crews we have had on our productions, and again, our spectacular audiences who fill our ears with their laughter and applause.

This special event brings together a cabaret of spectacular talents and will also feature some magical cameos from past performers, like Katharine McPhee, Adam Pascal, Julia Lester, and more.

Tap your dancing feet to your favorite tunes, sing along with your favorite songs, heck….even belt it out to the rafters. (You’re at home…go crazy!) But remember, this special performance is one night only, so add it to your calendars and don’t miss it.

This event is free to everyone, but we are also using this as a fundraiser and asking for donations to help keep our theatre running in these "safe at home" times. Theatre will always be there for you and we hope you can help us through this period of keeping the stage dark.

WHERE: In YOUR Living Room!

WHEN: December, 12 @ 7pm PST

No ticket required, simply visit: http://5startheatricals.com/thankful/ and enjoy the show!!

5-Star joins hands with the LA and San Diego theatre communities to mourn the loss of beloved performer Clay Stefanki. Clay was a 5-Star family member, having performed in our productions of both "White Christmas" and "Guys and Dolls".

A brilliant dancer, singer, and actor, Clay was a cherished member of the theatrical community. He is remembered for his generous and kind heart, sparkling sense of humor, fast-tapping feet, and ability to light up any room he was in. He will be deeply, dearly missed.

We send our love to his family, and to all who loved him.

PERFORMER SPOTLIGHT! 🎭🎶⁣

His portrayals of Ethan Winthrop on "Passions" and currently Brady Black on "Days of our Lives" have resulted in numerous industry accolades. He made Daytime television history in 2014 by being the first actor ever to win an Emmy in the Best Supporting Actor category for "Days of our Lives." His television credits expand into primetime (Extant, NCIS, Rizzoli & Isles), and his musical theatre repertoire consists of over 40 productions, including his critically acclaimed role as the Pharaoh in the Osmond Broadway Tour of Joseph. Fans of the DC Universe will most notably recognize him as Justice League member and futuristic hero Booster Gold from the series “Smallville”.”
