Christmas Stars is made up of volunteer performers ranging in age from kindergarten to senior citizen who are from Appleton and surrounding communities. Established in 1992, annual performances were initially held at the Appleton West Auditorium. After four years, a decision was made to move the production to the newly constructed, state-of-the-art Xavier Fine Arts Theatre. A hiatus was taken in 1997 and performances resumed in 1998. Ten performances are held each year over the first two weekends in December. The company also includes a professional director, a costumer, choral directors for each of the four choirs and a choreographer. Dozens of volunteers work backstage and during the shows.
