Star Productions International,
Inc. (SPI), is a small theatre company composed of nine artists
committed to exposing their craft, in varying genres, to
children and adult audiences. SPI is both a presenting and
performance venue for artist to work in collaboration with
other art mediums such as music, literature, and visual arts.
Twice a year artists collaborate to conduct a 10 week theatre
camp and performance presentation. The camp consist of workshops, field
trips and theatre experiences that are taught to children ages
8 - 17. Our mission is to become an artist workplace for the
development or advancement of current work or new works in
theatre.

The theatre company was created by playwright C. Maria Macon
who had her directorial debut in March 2004 with the play The
African American Talking Museum. The signature production for SPI is the award winning children's play "The Star That Hangs
Closest to the Earth" written by Macon and performed by
children that graduate from the 10 week theatre camp.
The 10 week workshop recently
ended with two performances of the
"The Star That
Hangs Closest to the Earth". To read recent review and
