"Leolani Hill’s beautiful portrayal [of] the royal bearing of this icon of Hawaiian history."
Howard Wahlberg's character's
"humor and self importance."
Another Plug! DC Theatre Scene's Laurel Elliott:
"Actress Leolani Hill is inspiring." The script both is "politically informative but also provide[s]
intimate details," and continues: "One compelling detail is that the script makes the narrator the antagonist; the audience isn’t supposed to root for him, yet we are dependent on him to tell the story. This creates a very interesting relationship which further
engages the audience."
"A credit to the creative team. The piece is recommended for conspiracy theorists, American history enthusiasts and anyone who can appreciate a good Hawaiian love song."
