   In early April, three pirates hatched a plan to get people out of their snuggly homes and into KumuKahuaTheatre.  HPR’sNoeTanigawa visited the theatre recently to find out why and how.

The New Play Festival runs Sunday through Tuesday, June 21st through 23rd at Kumu Kahua.  Eventbrite is handling advance tickets, or get tickets at Kumu one hour prior to performance.
