I-LAND Opening Night!

It was the opening night of I-LAND at the CCP last night. For those of you wanting a taste of HawaiIan culture, this is the show to see!  I found myself gyrating my hips and doing the hula after the show.

The show is all about the life of Keo Woolford.  He is the star of this one man show.  It showcases his journey from a troubled past, all the way to HULA enlightenment.

I was so happy that my friends came to see opening night!  We all  had a fantastic time!   A big bonus is the fact that we had the chance to see more of the art that decorated the lobby of the little theater at the CCP.  We all were in love with the space and we all kept on imagining different events that could take place there.  I, for one, would want to have a fun party with a great DJ! LOL!

I am in love with this mural!  I think it is by Arturo Luz?  Its so graphically beautiful!

I encourage all of you to see the show.  It’s something different and it opens your mind to a culture that seems so similar, but is really quite different.  The show will be ongoing till this Sunday, January 25. The proceeds of the show will be benefiting the scholarship program of the Asian Cultural Council.  Do call the CCP and catch I-LAND!

See you soon!
HUGS!
RAJO!
