Buffalo’ed
Hawai‘i Premiere by Jeannie Barroga
Directed by Reb Beau Allen
Drama of Our Forgotten History
Kumu Kahua Theatre begins 2017 with a story of Anglo colonization reaching into the Philippines, and the men and women who fought to stop it
The Buffalo Soldiers were primarily in the U.S. cavalry assembled during the Civil War. Their bravery impressed everyone and they were ‘invited’ to participate in more wars for ‘freedom’ world wide: Spanish-American War, San Juan, Puerto Rico, Cuba, then Hawai‘i and Alaska, the Boxer Rebellion, the Philippine War for Independence.
Told through the conduit of a wide range of theatrical tropes, this is a timely story of a part of history that needs to be told: the Filipino and African-American experience at the hands of “manifest destiny.”
Thursday, Friday & Saturday 8pm: January 26, 27, 28; February 2, 3, 4, 9, 10, 11, 16, 17, 18, 23, 24, 25, 2017
Sundays 2pm: January 29; February 12, 19, *26, 2017
*American Sign Language Interpretation upon request
(No show Super Bowl Sunday, February 5)
