 Canoe, The         Happy Birthday

Canoe, The

Synopsis:
The Canoe, directed by Dennis Yep, is a delightful tale filled with the sprit of Polynesia through its mele (song) and hula (dance). Written by Diane Yen-Mei Wong, George "Keoki" Winston has composed and recorded several pieces on the ki ho 'alu (slack key guitar) for this play. Amy Shima-Cornellier of Hapa Hao'le Hula Dancers is the mele and hula consultant. Lighting design is by Dion Cook, whose credits include the Best of Broadway productions. As told by Tutu (grandmother - played by Suzanne Brooks), an eleven year-old girl, Hoku (Juliana Yee), has always wanted to find the magical island that her deceased parents told her about when she was a little girl. Guided by a mysterious Sensei (Brian Doan), she and her rainbow kitty, Kala (Leana Machado), learn to paddle a canoe so that they may search the ocean for the magical island. Palm Tree (Andrea Blalock), the largest tree in the midget jungle, watches with delight as Wind (J. Lawrence Lew) and Turtle (Matthew Robinson) assist Sensei in guiding Hoku in her search for an adventure.

Happy Birthday

Synopsis:
Birthday is a play about women coping with various forms of sexism - principally, 2,000-year-old Chinese cultural attitudes toward women, but also sexism in the American workplace and, to a certain extent, homophobia.
