This coming Saturday, May 22, 2010 will be the first time the AMAZING show, Ho’omana’o I Na Wa I Huliau, will be shown in Old Wailuku Town at the Historic Iao Theater! Seating begins at 6:30pm.
Ho’omana’o I Na Wa I Huliau is a collection of the images shown in HD on a huge 24ft wide screen, paired with the mana’o of Kupuna Sam Ka’ai, sharing stories and wisdom of the ways of the people of old. Wisdom that still has resonance and applicability in these modern times.
Kumu Hula Kapono’ai Molitau is preparing a one-of-a-kind pre-show journey that will carry you back to a time before outside contact, before the distractions of modern life bombarded us.
After the show will provide a time to kukakuka, talkstory, with the traditional practicioners, Kupuna, and Shane Tegarden, the photographer that brought this vision to life.
Join us in taking this journey to Ka Wa Kahiko, bring your family, your friends, it will be a night not to be missed.
