OUR MISSION or... Why put a theater inside a
Mall?
The Starlight Theater and The Oakland Theatre
Guild are determined to be a positive force in our
community by presenting the finest in theatrical
entertainment, by providing classes in Acting and
Theater Arts, and by promoting the talents of local
performers. A lively theatre must be committed to all
the cultural aspects of community life. We subscribe to
the philosophy of THEATERWORK in saying “A
Theater should be a gathering place, a place of ideas,
stories, reflection and dialogue...a place of culture. A
lively theater sees its community as producers and
creators of culture, not consumers. Culture is not
something we have, it is something we make...and it is
a collective enterprise. A lively, robust theater, in the
heart of its community, has to continually examine its
role in building up a cultural democracy...no stories left
untold, no lives left uncelebrated!” ...This commitment
to culture must be renewed with each generation, or it
will die. This is why we chose to build our theater inside
the Summit Place Mall, close to the people we serve.
We hope you will be a part of this Adventure.

October 16 to 31, 2009 -- Fridays & Saturdays at 7:30
The Rocky Horror will be performed, live on stage, at
the Pontiac Northern High School Auditorium from
October 16 to 31, 2009. This phenomenally popular
movie and stage show tells the story of two clean
cut, recently engaged kids, Brad Majors and Janet
Weiss, who run into car trouble and seek help at a
"light down the road". Little do they realize that the
odd light is coming from the mansion where Dr.
Frank N Furter is in the midst of his maniacal
experiments. The play is a rock musical, a spoof of
science fiction movies, and a story of seduction and
sexual confusion...(not recommended for the very
young). It features the songs The Time Warp, Toucha,
Toucha, Touch Me, Science Fiction/ Double Feature,
Sweet Transvestite and many more.
