R. Ed Davis – (Founder, Executive/Artistic Director) Ed’s dream and vision started Starlight Mountain Theatre, and he continues to oversee its operation on a daily basis. He is responsible for show selection, auditions, casting and directing every show, and is the loving father-figure of our theatre. Without Ed, there would be no Starlight!
Jan Cooksey Davis – (Co-Founder, Artistic Director, Choreographer, Playwright) Jan is responsible for creating the musical tone for each show, and choreographing the dance numbers to go with them. She also writes new shows for Starlight, and lends a hand with directing shows along-side husband, Ed.
Dugan Jackman - (Educational & Outreach Director) Returning for his 4th season, Dugan is not only one of the actors but the Educational and Outreach Director. As such he invites everyone to sign up for this year's Summer Theatre Camp and also for the 4th Annual Spring Break Camp, Wizard of Oz (contract pending). His recent credits include Jim in "Gifts of the Magi", Ozzy in "The Scarlet Pimpernel", and Linus in "You're a Good Man Charlie Brown" at the new Star Theatre. Many thanks to his family and GG comrades and Leftover Brigade who crack the whip to keep him in shape!
Ed Sr., and Thelma Davis – (Co-Founders, Producers) Although “retired”, you’re still sure to see the Senior Davis’ helping around the theatre and encouraging a new crew of young actors. Retirement means more time for Ed and Thelma to travel and visit family members, especially all those dozens of grandchildren, and great-grandchildren that they love to spend time with!
Angie Anderson - (House Manager Extraordinaire!) Angie started out as Starlight's biggest fan, so we put her to work. By day, she work at Ennis Fine Furniture. By night, She's in her fifth season as house/company manager for SMT. Look for her on stage in State Fair. Yes, it's true!!! Special thanks to my SMT family and all who bring magic to theatre!
ReNea Nelson - (Administrative assistant, Sound). ReNea's biggest job is keeping Ed and Wes organized. She oversees finaces, grants, the gift shop and just about everything else. You will find her in the box office by day and the sound booth by night.
