A mobile game titled World Dai Star: Yume no Stellarium was released on July 26, 2023. Reception

The anime adaptation, Stella of the Theater: World Dai Star, was positively received by critics. Toni Sun Prickett of Anime Feminist reviewed the first episode, saying it more interested in the "actual process of acting", specifically how characters inhabit the minds of the characters they play, and called it "quite a pleasure", especially for those who enjoy Acting School shows, but criticized the "world-building info dumps" by the characters, and character designs of adults which "feel very little different from those of the children."
