The Discovery Series is offered to families on Sunday afternoons throughout the year. All performances are selected for their high artistic quality, family appeal and age appropriateness. The series celebrates human creativity, imagination, interpersonal communication and the magical bond forged between performer and audience. See Discovery Series performance schedule.

Performances include theatre, opera, dance, music, puppets, musical theatre, black light theatre, juggling and more, all linked to the curriculum for grades K – 10. Over thirty-five thousand students and teachers participate in STARTS programs annually. See STARTS school performance schedule.
