Here’s what people say about

The NiteStar Program… 
 
 

“The NiteStar Program is a model of how to effectively disseminate essential information to our youth.  I congratulate you on your outstanding achievements.”

“Bringing HIV/AIDS prevention information to young people through the magical experience of theater is a uniquely powerful way to help them make choices that can truly save their lives in the age of this massive pandemic…  I believe that this work has not yet begun to be recognized as the highly important tool that it is – but there is no doubt that this will happen.  We are very pleased to have this partnership with you.”

“The performance by NiteStar was outstanding and instrumental in ensuring the success of the event in the Dag Hamnmarskjold Auditorium at United Nations Headquarters.  It certainly made the day unforgettable for the young people celebrating International Youth Day here in New York.”


“I am pleased to inform you that St. Luke’s Roosevelt Hospital NiteStar Program will be an award recipient at our annual WORLD AIDS Day Breakfast…  The invaluable work that you provide undoubtedly has saved the lives of many and improved the quality of life for many more.”

 

“On behalf of the students, staff, and parents of The Brooklyn Transition Center, I wish to express our sincere thanks and appreciation for the outstanding work that you presented to our assembly…  The audience loved you and I received many compliments on your behalf as I was stopped and asked, “where did you get these people from?  They were wonderful!”

“The NiteStar Program/STAR Theatre is the epitome of the use of theatre as a component of primary prevention strategies addressing urgent teen issues.  The actors/educators serve as role models for the young people they meet, and the program sets the standard for all such initiatives across the country.  With uncommon energy, wisdom and creativity, The NiteStar Program/STAR Theatre has developed into a vehicle that is worthy of being viewed as a national model.”

“I thought the performance was hot.  It was informative, entertaining and funny at different points.  I saw the show last year and I enjoyed it just as much this year as I did last time.  I know that there is a lot of hard work and time put into the plays, but the only constructive criticism that I have is the show could be a little longer, because they are so good!”

“I am the mother of a HS student at the Academies@Englewood, in Englewood, New Jersey.  December 1, we had a celebration and your group was performing there.  Let me tell you the only reason I was sitting there was because my son was going to perform with the marching band, I was not at all interested in anything else…  From the minute your actors came onto the stage, they enchanted the audience.  They are not only professionals but extremely good actors delivering a huge message to humanity.”

“As always The NiteStar Program was wonderful.  Your program and the amazing actors you bring with you could not be reproduced by anyone.  It is a powerful and perfect way for young people to be introduced to the joys and sorrows of puberty.  The parents and guardians of the children wanted to tell you how grateful they are that the program is here at The Center School.”
