iHula, written by Ryan “Oki” Okinaka, is about cultural perpetuation and legacy. The art of hula is interwoven into this story about four very different women trying to overcome their fears, pride, and insecurities in order to discover the true meaning of hula. Okinaka is the recipient of WCC’s inaugural Emerging Island Artist program, mentoring WCC Theatre students in a series of workshops throughout the 2021-2022 academic year.

Walter is adapted by Taurie Kinoshita from Woyzeck by Georg Büchner—considered the first truly modern play and based on actual events leading to the first attempt at an insanity plea in 1824. Walter is set in a contemporary world, and reflects the animalistic nature of society. This production uses non-realistic drama and expressionistic techniques to show struggles with mental illness.
