	BROADWAY ENTERTAINMENT Presenting live Broadway theatre since 1951, the not-for-profit Starlight Theatre Association is Kansas City's oldest and largest performing arts organization. The Association operates, programs and maintains the largest stage in the United States, as well as the 16-acre Starlight Theatre complex. The theatre seats approximately 8,000 and is located in Swope Park, the largest park in Kansas City. While assuming all annual operating costs for the complex, the Association also raises funds for capital improvements and a variety of programs, including Broadway musicals, concerts, community outreach and education. Since 2000, the Association has contributed more than $25 million of privately funded improvements to the Kansas City, Mo.-owned Starlight Theatre. In 2013, Starlight recorded more than $1 million of depreciation expenses related to the theatre facility, equipment and offices. Starlight Theatre continues to win local, national and international awards. In 2013, these honors included: 2013 Venue Excellence Award - International Association of Venue Managers; 2013 Best Outdoor Theatre and 2013 Best Theatre - The Pitch; Best Entertainment Venue 2013 - 435 magazine; Best Performing Art Venue 2013 - Ingram's magazine; Best Theatre 2013 - Ingram's magazine; 2013 Family Fav Award: Favorite Night Out For Parents - KC Parent magazine; 2013 Certificate of Excellence Winner - Trip Advisor. Total attendance for Starlight Broadway shows, concerts and Children's Theatre productions was more than 230,000 in 2013. Starlight Theatre's annual Broadway series features national Broadway tours, co-productions with other regional and national theatres, and its own locally produced shows. The landmark outdoor theatre, one of only three of its kind remaining in the United States, draws theatre fans in the summer from throughout the Kansas City area, as well as surrounding cities and states. In fact, nearly every summer Starlight welcomes visitors from all 50 states and several nations. The 2013 Broadway season brought many top shows to the 12,000-square-foot Starlight Theatre stage - Spamalot, Catch Me If You Can, Flashdance - The Musical, Disney's The Little Mermaid, Footloose and Miss Saigon. A highlight of the Broadway season was the "Under the Sea Festival," held prior to all performances of Disney's The Little Mermaid, which included free interactive activities and family entertainment. Total attendance for the Broadway productions was approximately 155,000. Audience members enjoyed many favorite Starlight amenities including pre-show dining, the gift store, expanded concessions, picturesque fountains and lushly landscaped grounds.

	CONCERT ENTERTAINMENT In addition to offering award-winning Broadway theatre, Starlight Theatre is a favored performance venue for top concert artists. Starlight's climate-controlled stage, rehearsal spaces, dressing rooms and many amenities are considered state of the art in the outdoor concert industry. Starlight's seating capacity is another major plus in attracting today's leading performance artists. Starlight's 2013 Concert Series featured 13 concert performances covering the gamut of musical genres. The lineup ranged from classic rock favorites such as Styx, REO Speedwagon, Ted Nugent, Heart, Lynyrd Skynrd to A Prairie Home Companion to current chart-toppers including Imagine Dragons, Train, Tate Stevens and Tame Impala.

PART VI, SECTION A, LINE 2: DISCLOSURE REQUIREMENTS PER FORM 990 INST	GOVERNING BODY AND MANAGEMENT	DID ANY OFFICER, DIRECTOR, TRUSTEE, OR KEY EMPLOYEE HAVE A FAMILY OR BUSINESS RELATIONSHIP WITH ANY OTHER OFFICER, DIRECTOR, TRUSTEE, OR KEY EMPLOYEE? Members of the Board of Directors of Starlight Theatre Association of Kansas City represent local companies where business relationships between such companies are the norm and exist in the normal course of business. There are no relationships between individual Board members or their companies that would require disclosure under a strict interpretation of the Internal Revenue Service's instructions. The relationships that are present are strictly a part of regular business transactions and would be offered to the general public. Given the nature of the business relationships and disclosures provided on a Conflict of Interest questionnaire submitted by each Board Member, Starlight believes the relationships that are present do not meet the disclosure requirements as stated in the instructions to Form 990, Part VI, Section A, Question 2 - Did any officer, director, trustee, or key employee have a family relationship or a business relationship with any other officer, director, trustee, or key employee. Accordingly, the question will be answered no to remain compliant with IRS reporting and disclosure requirements. Starlight Theatre Association of Kansas City purchases services from companies affiliated with members of the Board of Directors. When applicable, services provided by related parties go through an appropriate competitive bid process. Services purchased from these affiliated companies during 2013 and 2012 amounted to approximately $560,813 and $1,240,173, respectively, and related to utilities, insurance, construction, and architecture fees.
PART VI, SECTION A, LINE 7A and B	GOVERNING BODY AND MANAGEMENT	The Board of Starlight Theatre Association of Kansas City puts together a nominating committee that identifies potential candidates. Once the potential candidates are identified, the committee presents the nominations at a board meeting. A full vote of the Board is required to approve a potential candidate as a new member of the Board. All decisions of the governing body are subject to approval; however, if a board member is identified as having a personal interest in the decision the board member will excuse themselves from the vote.
PART VI, SECTION B, LINE 11	FORM 990 REVIEW PROCESS	A COPY OF FORM 990 IS REVIEWED 'IN DRAFT FORM' BY FINANCE COMMITTEE MEMBERS PRIOR TO BEING FILED WITH THE INTERNAL REVENUE SERVICE. THE FULL FINANCE COMMITTEE CHARTER AVAILABLE UPON REQUEST. THE CHARTER APPROVED BY BOARD OF DIRECTORS ON APRIL 15, 2010. THE FINANCE COMMITTEE ANNUALLY REVIEWS AND UPDATES THE CHARTER AS DEEMED NECESSARY.
PART VI, SECTION B, LINE 12C	CONFLICT OF INTEREST POLICY	Starlight Theatre Association of Kansas City strives, at all times, to conduct its relationships in transactions with individuals and other business concerns on a highly ethical basis. To this end, the primary consideration of any Starlight director, officer, committee member, employee, associate, or volunteer in all transactions arising or related to such persons duties to Starlight must be the best interest of Starlight. Consequently, in all dealings with and on behalf of Starlight, these persons will be held to a strict rule of honest and fair dealing between themselves and Starlight. The purpose of this policy is to protect the interests of Starlight when it is contemplating entering into a transaction or any other arrangement that might benefit the private interest of a director, officer, committee member, or employee, or might result in a possible excess-benefit transaction to such person. This Policy is intended to supplement but not replace any applicable state and federal laws governing conflict of interests applicable to Starlight. Duty to Disclose: In connection with any actual or potential conflict of interest, an interested person must disclose promptly the existence of his/her financial interest and all material facts to the Board and members of the committee with Board-delegated powers considering the proposed transaction or arrangement. Determining Whether a Conflict of Interest Exists: After disclosure of a financial interest and all material facts related thereto, and after any discussion with the interested person, the interested person shall leave the Board or committee meeting while the determination of a conflict of interest is discussed and voted. THE FULL POLICY AVAILABLE UPON REQUEST. THE POLICY APPROVED BY BOARD OF DIRECTORS ON APRIL 16, 2009.
PART VI, SECTION B, LINE 15	COMPENSATION POLICIES	Starlight Theatre Association of Kansas City seeks to provide a reasonable and competitive executive total compensation opportunity consistent with market-based compensation practices for individuals possessing the experience and skills needed to improve the overall performance of Starlight and accomplish its exempt purpose and mission. The Board of Directors of Starlight has the authority to establish, review and approve compensation policies, programs and guidelines to ensure that they support Starlight's mission, attract and retain high-caliber executives, balance the need to be competitive with the limits of available financial resources, and comply with Starlight's tax-exempt status and applicable state and federal law. Starlight's executive compensation program is administered by the Executive Committee of the Board. THE FULL POLICY AVAILABLE UPON REQUEST.

PART III, LINE 4D	STATEMENT OF PROGRAM SERVICE ACCOMPLISHMENTS	EDUCATION PROGRAMS The momentum for performing arts education continues to build at Starlight Theatre. The commitment to education is deeply held at Starlight as evidenced in the theatre's vision statement: Starlight Theatre is the premier entertainment treasure of the heartland, where performing arts share center stage with education. In keeping with its not-for-profit mission and in response to growing community interest, Starlight continues to expand its portfolio of education programs. As expenses significantly exceed revenues for its education offerings, many of which are offered at little or no cost to participants, Starlight funds this important initiative with operating funds and private donations. Educational programming in 2013 included: * College internships in multiple theatre production and administration roles, through the Bob Rohlf Internship Program. * Starlight's Blue Star Awards, the second largest high school musical theatre awards program in the country. In 2013, 43 schools presented 50 productions representing more than 4,500 high school students from throughout the metropolitan area participated in the program. * Rising Star Scholarships for Blue Star Awards for participating high school seniors and Vincent Legacy Scholarships for ethnically-diverse middle-school students. * The Starlight STARS of Tomorrow musical theatre training and performance troupe for 7th through 12th grade students. * Act Like an Animal summer camp, featured two, two-week sessions for youth ages 5 to 10 held in partnership with The Kansas City Zoo. * Expansion of Starlight Theatre Academy offerings to include Frosty Fun Days, day camps during the winter holiday; Spring Break Camp; Camp Take-A-Bow, a new summer camp for youth 11-14; and three Master Class sessions. * Continuation of Starlight on Site's in-school theatre education curriculum at Hogan Preparatory Academy Middle School offered to students at no cost. * Continuation of the Just Imagine program, an interactive theatrical performance for children receiving services from hospitals, domestic shelters and child service organizations. Highlights of Starlight's 2013 Education programs included the expansion of on-site Master Classes and camps; the celebration of the 11th Anniversary of Starlight's Blue Star Awards; and the addition of three new scholars to the Vincent Legacy Scholarship program - expanding the total to 19 recipients since the program's inception.
