Our objective has long been to make theatre as accessible as <br /> possible — and to reach as many young people as we could, a commitment we proudly stand by <br /> today. <br /> Our season is comprised of literary, curriculum- and character-education based classics that are as <br /> entertaining as they are educational. From historical productions like Heroes of the Underground <br /> Railroad to character-education based works like The Lady of Bullyburg and Sadie's Spectacular <br /> Saturday, Bright Star offers something for everyone. In fact, this year we have over 56 different <br /> productions hitting the road with our season including puppet, science, anti-bullying and so much <br /> more! <br /> The founder of Bright Star Touring Theatre, David Ostergaard, is no stranger to the theatre world. <br /> Committed to professionalism, he has assembled a talented and dedicated team of actors, <br /> directors and designers. He's an Emmy winning actor who's work has been seen at Cannes Film <br /> Festival, the Showtime Network in the Academy Award winning short-Two Soldiers and much <br /> more. <br /> Organizational Budgets from 2014-15, 2015-16, 2016-17 <br /> Please see attached. <br /> f <br />
