Join us at one of Honolulu's finest community theatres providing cutting edge, award winning productions not seen in other theatres on the island. For the next three years, in addition to the plays in our regular season, which includes a Sam Shepard title, a recent Broadway hit, two plays written by local playwrights and August Wilson's American Century Cycle in historical order. From 1982 to 2005, August Wilson penned ten plays that captured the Black experience in Pittsburgh throughout the 20th century. Wilson's plays such as Fences, Ma Rainey's Black Bottom and The Piano Lesson will be produced live on stage.

1st Viator Customer - Awesome Play
The show was awesome! Cast was superb. Has the opportunity to sit in on the q&a after the show and it was most interesting. We attended the play, My Name is Asher Lev based on the book written by Chaim Potok. Very thought provoking.
Operator response
