Carver Matinee: Honolulu Theatre, The Pa’akai We Bring

This original production introduces young audiences to Native Hawaiian ideas of balance and healing by exploring our relationship to Pa‘akai (salt). Traditionally, pa‘akai is food, medicine, and sacrament; it is essential to our individual, communal, and environmental well-being. Through stories, songs, laughter, and audience participation, the ensemble joyously celebrates ancient and modern ways we can restore and maintain balance.

Recommended for all ages.
