  • Though it’s located on a military base, this venerable organization is a true community theater, attracting actors and audiences from around the island. Their standard fare is the familiar musical.

  • The largest of the community theaters offers beloved musicals to pidgin English fairy tales, contemporary drama to comedy.

  • This one-time movie theater has been wonderfully renovated, and now offers a full and varied season of everything from hula hālau fundraisers to visiting dance companies.

  • The campus theater includes a 600-seat main theater and a smaller Earle Ernst Lab Theater. The season includes plays and musicals, and Kabuki and Noh Japanese theater.

  • The focus of this 100-seat experimental theater is new work from around the Pacific.

  • Mamiya, named after the pioneering heart surgeon who endowed it, is used for recitals, dance, and performances.

  • This small but highly respected theater is a former church hall out in a graveyard in misty Mānoa Valley.

  • When Honolulu lands a rock show or traveling circus, this basic hall is where it happens.

  • The 2,185-seat concert hall is home of the Honolulu Symphony, the Hawai’i Opera Theater, Ballet Hawai’i’s annual holiday Nutcracker , and most other symphonic events.
