With Hōʻike 2024 tickets now on sale, here’s a fun throwback to the last time "Kū i ka Mana" was on stage with the Kū Kanaka scene from the show.
This year’s show will feature a new style, and we’re excited to see how our haumāna will elevate this production the second time around. Get your tickets now on the Kamehameha Schools Hawaiʻi page on GoFan (gofan.co/app/school/HI69218).
Hōʻike 2024 takes place March 14 and 15 at 6pm in Koaiʻa Gym. "Kū i ka Mana" is a Hawaiian language rock opera that shares the drama and political intrigue behind the election of 1874 between King David Kalākaua and Queen Emma Rooke, after the death of King William Charles Lunalilo left the Kingdom of Hawai‘i without an appointed successor to the throne. “Kū I Ka Mana” dramatizes in music and dance the events leading up to the election of 1874. In the running are Queen Emma, beloved by the people, and the charismatic David Kalākaua.
