HAPA: The Musical About Being Many Things

Ages 4+

 
 

By the HTY Ensemble

If variety is the spice of life, Hawai‘i is red-hot and full of flavor! This brand-new musical created by the HTY Ensemble is a celebration of diversity within our community and within every individual. “Hapa” in Hawaiian, means “part”. No matter our race, all of us are part something and part another thing. See how the HTY ensemble honors the many parts of an individual in an uplifting, age-appropriate musical.
