About Us

Sparkle Theatricals is a dynamic Twin Cities-based performing arts company dedicated to producing original, inclusive, and fun theater experiences.

We push boundaries by performing in unexpected venues, from traditional stages to unconventional spaces like one-bedroom apartments.

We foster a thriving artistic community where everyone feels welcome to share their unique voice. 

And we provide a platform for artists and audiences of all backgrounds to collaborate, grow, and connect on a deep level.

β€œ[Sparkle Theatricals events are] like a sparkler… Imagine someone is eating a muffin, and the weather is very standard and overcast. A stranger comes and sticks a sparkler in that muffin and says,  'I hope you have a really lovely day.' They walk away. And you're left with your muffin and your sparkler.”
