Founded in 1995, StarStruck Theatre is a non-profit organization whose mission is to enrich the lives of youth and our community by providing theatre arts education, performance opportunities, and musical productions of uncompromising quality. Our programs develop leadership, emphasize responsibility, cultivate self-confidence, and foster teamwork in a supportive environment. This upcoming season marks StarStruck Theatre’s 20th anniversary of producing quality musicals in Fremont! StarStruck mixes a professional training and performance environment with the relaxed fun and enthusiasm of a youth community theatre. It is this combination that attracts both the youngest, most inexperienced beginners and the theatrical veteran alike. Our inclusive atmosphere allows them all to share in the magic of creating a musical. All cast members receive intensive training in singing, dancing and acting, while learning about other technical aspects of theater as well. StarStruck prides itself on the fact that it is the only year-round non-profit youth theatre company in the Tri-City area. Many of our graduates have gone on to continue studies in music and theater in college and even professional theater companies from their training. StarStruck produces two main stage shows a year (January and July/Aug) at The Smith Center at Ohlone College. Recently, StarStruck has added a spring show that performs in the Valhalla Theatre at Irvington High School. StarStruck’s education program, START, Student Training in the Arts offers year round classes in all areas of theatre as well as summer camp programs.
