The Amaya Family
“Sunrise, Sunset”
September 21, 2025
7:00pm
Magic & Wonder Dinner Theater
Sunday Night Cabaret Series performances are held at Magic and Wonder Dinner Theater (3065 Lincoln State Rte, Paradise, PA 17562). All shows are pay-what-you-will, in keeping with our mission to make exceptional theatre accessible.
Come spend a night with us celebrating the “sunrises” and “sunsets” of our lives together as we share the moments that led us to where we are today! Inspired by our shared experience in Servant Stage’s Fiddler on the Roof, where we shared the stage together for the first time, this cabaret will highlight the songs that brought us together, the songs that tell our story, and the songs that we simply love to sing. It will be a night of laughter, some happy tears, and LOTS of heartfelt singing where we will share our journey with you! From the moment we met to the quartet you see today, life in the Amaya family has been wonderfully unpredictable, but always full of blessings… and we wouldn’t change it for the world. We hope to see you there!
Robert, Colleen, Sophia, and Angelina Amaya have been familiar faces with Servant Stage for years, delighting audiences with their talent and warmth on stage.

MEET the amayas
Robert Amaya is honored to share this special evening with his family and the Servant Stage community. Audiences may know him from film, most notably as Javier, the unforgettable “Snake King,” in Sherwood Pictures’ Courageous. A multi-faceted artist, Robert is an award-winning actor, author, songwriter, director, and internationally sought-after speaker. On screen, he has become a family favorite in films such as Mom’s Night Out, Family Camp, and Unlikely Angel. On stage, Robert has performed with the Walt Disney Company as a featured vocalist with the critically acclaimed Voices of Liberty, and in regional productions including Les Misérables and Miss Saigon. Local audiences may also recognize him as Tevye from Servant Stage’s Fiddler on the Roof, where he performed alongside his talented family. Passionate about the Gospel and its impact on the creative arts, Robert created a coaching program for actors and filmmakers named The Creator’s Call (JoinCreatorsCall.com)— unique mentorship style training for actors and creatives. Furthermore, he founded the Lancaster Film Initiative (LFI), a non-profit, to create opportunities for Lancaster’s Faith-based film and acting community. Robert is grateful to God for the many blessings and seeks to honor Him in all he does. He is especially grateful to share the stage tonight with his high school sweetheart, Colleen, and their two daughters- Sophia and Angelina. @realrobertamaya
Colleen Amaya is delighted to return to Servant Stage, a community that has meant so much to her over the years. Performing alongside her family in past productions such as The Sound of Music (Elsa) and Fiddler on the Roof (Golde) has been especially meaningful, and she’s grateful to continue that tradition with this evening’s performance. Originally from South Florida, Colleen has starred in regional productions such as Show Boat, Guys and Dolls, 1776, and The Music Man, which earned her a Carbonell Award nomination for Best Actress in a Musical. Her professional experience includes performing with the Walt Disney World Company, most notably as a featured vocalist with the critically acclaimed Voices of Liberty. Currently, Colleen is the external female understudy in the production of Jekyll and Hyde at the Fulton Theater. This past holiday season, Colleen portrayed the lead role of Carol in the Christmas movie, Carol, and had the opportunity to be an on-screen family with her 2 lovely daughters, as well as share heartwarming scenes with her talented and funny hubby, Robert. Colleen is the proud owner and founder of the Colleen Amaya Voice Studio, where she has taught proper and sustainable vocal technique to artists worldwide for over 25 years. She is thankful to God for the opportunity to share the arts with her family and the Central Pennsylvania community.@colleenamaya
Sophia Amaya feels blessed to be part of this special evening and is deeply grateful to Servant Stage and the Lancaster theater community for their unwavering support of young performers. She recently completed her third production of Fulton Theatre’s 2024/2025 season, appearing in Frozen (Ensemble), Aladdin (Scheherazade), and Cats (Electra). She became part of the Servant Stage family as a member of the teen ensemble in Rock Around the Clock and since then, she has performed in Ragtime (Ensemble), The Sound of Music (Liesl u/s), Big Fish (Mermaid u/s), Anastasia Jr. (Lily), and Newsies Jr. (Katherine). One of her most meaningful experiences was playing Chava in Servant Stage’s beloved production of Fiddler on the Roof, a show made all the more special by the opportunity to share the stage with her family, just as she does again in this cabaret. Originally from Miami, FL, Sophia began performing at a young age. Her early regional credits include The Lion, the Witch and the Wardrobe (Lucy) at Actors’ Playhouse and Pippin (Thea) at the University of Miami’s Ring Theatre. A nationally awarded competitive dancer, Sophia currently trains with Pennsylvania Regional Ballet and continues to pursue excellence across multiple dance disciplines. Last Christmas season, she made her feature film debut as Mindy in Carol, performing once again alongside her family, an experience like no other. Whether on stage or screen, Sophia’s deepest desire is to honor God with every creative gift He’s given her. @itssophiaamaya
Angelina Amaya is thrilled to be back on stage in this family cabaret with the Servant Stage community! This summer, she enjoyed playing the role of Young Elsa in Frozen Kids and her other recent credits include Newsies Jr. (Ensemble), and Anastasia Jr. (Ensemble). Some of her favorite roles include Bielke in Fiddler on the Roof and Gretl in The Sound of Music, where she enjoyed performing with her family. In addition to theater, Angelina has appeared in local business commercials and recently made her feature film debut as Molly in Carol, acting alongside her entire family. She loves all genres of dance and is currently studying ballet in the pre-professional program at Pennsylvania Regional Ballet. Tonight, Angelina is especially grateful to share the stage with her loving mom, Colleen; her sister and best friend, Sophia; and her “teddy bear” dad, Robert. Above all, she thanks God for the incredible opportunities He has provided.
