The Storyteller

Friday, November 20, 2026 at 7:30 PM at Kennedy Theatre. From Pō to Ao, from sky to earth, from ocean to land, to man, to gods, and back again. When Haumea receives a hōʻailona, (an omen) she strives to avert a tragedy that not even the most unyielding of mothers can avoid. When Makaliʻi and Hōkū arrive at their grandparents' house, the family confronts a new reality, where grief is cried from the living and from the dead. This is a story of how moʻolelo infuses resilience and pieces together lives, all woven by the Kumulipo, the ultimate storyteller, who echoes who we are and where we are going.
