Rising Star Stage#

The theater has a floor which can be seen only during the Hooktail fight. A clock is on the left wall near the stage; part of it is visible during Hooktail's brief death animation.

Slightly above the curtains are sets of light bars, complete with emitted light, that cannot be seen by normal means.

Across from the boombox is a set of boxes against the wall the stage background is placed against.

The right side of the stage features a broom, ladder, and what appears to be some type of vase with liquid in it. If a Shy Guy hops onto the stage, you may be able to briefly glimpse some of these objects.

B-List Star Stage#

The walls around the theater are in all stage ranks and are not seen in normal play. The wall texture used is the same for all levels of stages, and the texture is stretched for the side walls. As mentioned prior, the floor can be seen in the Hooktail fight, but the player must be at Level 10 to obtain the B-List Star Stage, a task very unlikely to complete so early in the game.

These ceiling lights are slightly above the curtains and cannot be seen. There are colored textures for each light that can be seen facing away from the audience.

Aside from the addition of a door, the right side of the B-List Star Stage features the same objects as the Rising Star Stage. The vase-like object is toppled over this time.

The left side of the stage features a boombox with a low-res texture, a desk, and a door identical to the one on the right side. A third of the desk is behind the curtain.

A-List Star Stage#

Like the B-List Star Stage's floor, the A-List Star Stage's floor is unlikely to be ever be seen in a normal playthrough since it requires reaching Level 20 before the Hooktail battle.

Like the B-List Star Stage, the A-List Star Stage has colored ceiling lights except they now face towards the audience. Unlike the B-List Star Stage, there are even more offscreen ceiling lights next to the colored ones. Unlike the colored lights, these ones actually emit light.

The right side of the stage features two cameras that cannot be seen by normal means. These cameras are also on the left side of the stage, facing the opposite direction (towards the center of the audience).

The left side of the stage has a chair, control panel, and table. On the table is a transparent container that gets more transparent the more the camera is zoomed out along with two entirely red tennis racket-shaped objects. On top of one of the tennis racket-shaped objects appears to be a powder sponge.

There is a window on the left side of the stage near the chair. Interestingly, the wall appears to use the same texture as the one for the audience floor.

Superstar Stage#

Like all the other stages, the Superstar Stage has its own unique floor. This time, seeing it requires reaching Level 30 before the Hooktail battle.

On the left side of the stage is a set of stairs leading to two different doors; the bottom-most one is also present on the right side of the stage. The table with the powder sponge is identical to the one in the A-List Star Stage.

Behind the stage and slightly to the right is this control panel. It's completely behind the back wall, so there's no way to see it in-game normally. Its purpose is unknown.

In the same fashion as every other stage, the Superstar Stage has a set of ceiling lights just barely above the curtains. However, these ones act as an occasional hazard and fall down to damage a character onstage.
