Ho’o Infinity

New work in development to premiere at La MaMa in 2027.

Are we really all stardust? Our hearts? Our food? Ho'o Infinity travels from scarcity to abundance through the lens of hula and humanity. Taking inspiration from home parties filled with mele and hula and the Kumulipo (a historical chant that charts the final Hawaiian monarchy's genealogical path from the beginning of time), this new work layers poetics and science with dance, theater, and food! It begins with the lipo emptiness and evolves to delicious communal celebration.

Special thanks to Green Space and the EstroGenius Festival for presenting workshop productions and supporting this process.

The creative team includes Pele Bauch, Eva Burgess, Marina Celander, Erika Comrie-Krupa, Claudia Goddard, Kahu Oli Lae O'o Kris Kato, Kiku Sakai, Jessie Winograd, featuring Hawaiian cuisine by Pa’aki’s chef Kini Kahauolopua.
