Kumu Kahua premieres another new work by playwright,
screenwriter, actor and newspaper columnist Lee Cataluna. Having
viewed life in Hawai‘i through the eyes of cable television station
employees on Kaua‘i, fisherfolk on Maui, politicians on the Big Island
and workers and customers at Long’s Drug Stores on O‘ahu, Cataluna now
cultivates her distinctive brand of local humor in new soil – a
Honolulu flower and lei shop. The colorful cast of characters includes
Mrs. Fujiuchi, the shop owner, who doesn’t
like her employees to smell the flowers because she’s convinced they’ll
lose their scents; Romell, a flamboyant delivery man who loves to read
the gift cards and gossip about their contents; Nornette, a sales clerk
who bursts into tears at the slightest provocation; Bertram, a customer
who appears to be sending flowers to several women at the same time;
and June, a big bruiser with a soft spot for flowers. The comic action
kicks into high gear when the building owners decide to sell and close
down the shop .
Thursday, Friday and Saturday 8pm: November 4, 5, 6,
11, 12, 13, 18, 19, 20, 26, 27; December 2, 3, 4, 2004
