Na Lei Hulu i ka Wekiu returns to the Palace of Fine Arts with Mahu, an all new hula production featuring a captivating cast of mahu guest artists: Hinaleimoana Wong-Kalu, Kuini, and Kaumaka?iwa Kanaka?ole.
Artistic director Patrick Makuakane says, "This year's show features some of the most talented mahu artists in Hawai'i today--each of whom possesses a unique vibe and persona which arouses a distinctive choreographic approach generating hula that feels fresh, possibly forbidden, and slightly dangerous."
"Each song, dance and luxuriously-sequined garment was chosen as a deliberate opportunity to be extravagant, or at the very least pleasurably provocative. No fillers allowed."
