Good day!

My name is Kirsten Almeida, the Founder/Artistic Director for Star of the Day.

In March 2011, I lost my best friend, Beth, very suddenly to cancer. She was diagnosed and died in just one week. She was never sick, and it has been a difficult loss for all who loved her. It was around that same time when I almost stopped performing, because I felt so guilty being alive when Beth could no longer live out her dreams. But, I was moved to help gas explosion victims in Allentown, PA by organizing a cabaret to raise money to help the families displaced. So many people came forward to help, and the event was a big success. It was in that moment that I breathed life into Star of the Day. It was in that moment I realized Beth would not want me to give up on my dreams. In fact, she was one of my biggest cheerleaders.

On April 11, 2011, Star of the Day was born. Fast forward to 2015 when we produced our first theatrical stage production. It has not been an easy road, but it's been a rewarding journey. We have overcome tremendous obstacles and managed to turn lemons into lemonade.

In 2020, we have big goals and a big season. We will be announcing exciting news on Saturday, November 16th at our All That Glitters Gala honoring Chris Hamm. This is our biggest fundraiser of the year and the ticket price is budget friendly. Our $35 ticket price includes food, desserts, entertainment, awards, and special announcements about our 2020 season.

I am personally inviting you to join us. All our welcome. It's family-friendly. And it's truly an wonderful evening of friendship and fellowship.

Meet Our 2020 Gala Honoree

Star of the Day Productions is pleased to announce that on Saturday, November 16, 2019, it will honor its esteemed music educator and sound engineer Chris Hamm at the All That Glitters 5^th Anniversary Gala and 2020 Season Reveal.

Mr. Hamm has been an important member of the Star of the Day’s staff since 2012. His contributions to the organization’s growth include sound design for the monthly Spotlight Cabarets and every theatrical production since October 2012. He has also helped create music curriculum for the company’s Summer Spotlight Academy’s music education program. He has acted as a mentor for Star of the Day’s teen apprentice program and has musically directed each season. Chris is also a gifted vocalist and musician.

Outside of Star of the Day, Mr. Hamm is a music educator in Lehigh and Berks counties as well as an active member in the arts community throughout the valley.

“We are so fortunate to have supporters like Chris in our organization, who care about the health of the arts in the community.” says Kirsten Almeida, Artistic Director at Star of the Day.

In acknowledgment of his exemplary commitment to the arts in the Lehigh Valley, Star of the Day is delighted to bestow upon Mr. Hamm the organization’s singular honor for 2019.

Past honorees include: The Reverend Dr. Paul Knappenberger (Pastor St. John’s UCC Emmaus/Arts Advocate), Mark Marina (Musician/Realtor – Weichert Realtors), Dirk Leisher (Set Construction/Arts Advocate), Alexis Leon (Stage Manager/Performer/Mentor/Arts Advocate/Scholar).

Every year Star of the Day raises critical revenue through Gala ticket sales, program advertisements, sponsorships, contributions, and the proceeds from a raffle. These funds are used to further the organization’s mission of entertaining, educating, and encouraging the community through music, theatre, and dance and offering scholarships for college and summer educational programs.
