Honoring Okinawan Roots on Stage | Honolulu News

Celebrate 125 years of Okinawan resilience in Hawaii with the groundbreaking new play “Our Okinawan Ohana” — a powerful stage tribute built on real stories from 80 Uchinanchu elders. Playwright Lee Tonouchi and Playbuilders Hawaii have spent two years weaving personal journeys of exile, plantation life, and cultural survival into this emotionally rich production, complete with traditional Okinawan music. Auditions are now open — July 22nd and 27th at 6 PM at the United Church of Christ on Judd Street — for actors of all experience levels to help bring this vital heritage to life.
