Demigods Anonymous
Action, magic, and humor abound on stage in Demigods Anonymous. This queer-centered, superhero fantasy tells the story of people manifesting ancient kupua (demigod) powers to transform into animals.
Demigods Anonymous follows Noe Lahana, who struggles with shapeshifting into a giant lizard, at her mandated Demigods Anonymous meetings. She, her girlfriend Marcella, and their friends face their meeting facilitator, who is condescending at best, evil at worst.
The cast includes Reece Flores as Noe, Sydney Ishikawa as Marcella, and Marie Richter as the menacing counselor.
Noa Helela is a Hawaiian-Asian-European multimedia artist whose work includes filmmaking, playwriting, music, and poetry. As a Windward Community College alum, Noa is a Hawai‘i Conservatory of Performing Arts emerging island artist. Most of her projects involve fantasy realism and dark humor, with intersectional themes including mixed racial identity, diaspora, native issues, racism/racial violence, colonization, feminism, queer relationships, and trans identity.
