Honolulu Theatre for Youth, like many theatres around the world, is temporarily closing the doors to their home theatre to audiences, but not to creativity.  With the support of their Board and community partners, the company has opted to continue the employment of a full company of Resident Artists and Educators, but partially shift the company’s focus to serving their audience through digital content creation until it is deemed safe for audiences to gather again.

“This is a moment when lots of families are at home and are looking for good information, creative ideas to pass the time and connections with their community.  These are all things our company is uniquely qualified to provide. We just have to shift our creative efforts to a new medium,” says HTY Artistic Director, Eric Johnson.

The company is currently exploring ideas and devising new material with hopes to have the content available very soon.  The ensemble is bringing years of experience and cultural diversity to the development of material while embracing a new mode of reaching audiences.

HTY looks forward to welcoming you back into the theatre.  Until then, look out for our new digital content.  We are excited to continue serving Hawaii’s keiki and their families.

We hope you and your ohana stay safe and healthy during these challenging times.

Aloha from all of us at HTY
