Hōʻike 2023 - PAIʻEA, A Glam Rock Opera - Friday Night Performance

Kamehameha Schools Hawaiʻi Kula Kiʻekiʻe presents Hōʻike 2023: PAIʻEA, a glam rock opera in ʻōlelo Hawaiʻi.
This show was recorded before a live audience on Friday, March 10 as part of Hōʻike 2023. Our annual Hōʻike is a treasured signature event for our kula. PAIʻEA honors the chiefly lineage of our kula, and celebrates the life and achievements of Kamehameha Paiʻea, the great-grandfather of Ke Aliʻi Pauahi. This powerful moʻolelo is brought to life with a contemporary twist, as a glam rock opera.
Beyond the live presentation and recording, PAIʻEA will live on as a story as our performing arts students plan to take this show to the world's largest performing arts festival in Scotland, the Edinburgh Festival Fringe, this summer. They will also present the traveling version of the show three additional times on our Island. On July 8 at the Kahilu Theatre in Waimea. On July 14, here on the KS Hawaiʻi campus at the William Charles Lunalilo Center. And on July 21 at the University of Hawaiʻi at Hilo. All three shows are fundraisers to help our students defray travel costs associated with bringing the show to Scotland. More information on tickets and show times will be posted on our Hawaiʻi campus channels and on our website, www.ksbe.edu/e....
PAIʻEA is the first in a trilogy of rock opera performances being developed at Kamehameha Hawaiʻi campus, focusing on Kamehameha I.

Kamehameha, laua o kukailimoku did not exist simultaneously, confused child of no Hawaiian blood. Paiea is not fact, but a 'fictional' tactical lie, to introduce a child that 'resembled' them "ali'i" of a place called Hawaii.

Paiea did not wear that. Horrible, horrible ideaology, presentation and language.
