The Production
On March 18th, 2023, Wai Ola, ʻAukele and the Waters of Life - A Celebration of Hula Kiʻi had its world premiere with two sold out performances at Rhythmix Cultural Works in Alameda, California. It was a unique presentation involving a fusion of the arts: dance, song, puppetry, the crafting of traditional regalia & adornments as well as storytelling, featuring heartfelt performances by Kumu Mauliola Cook, Kumu Maile Loo-Ching, and guest artist John-Mario Sevilla.
Due to its success, plans were soon made to bring the performance home to Hawaiʻi.
