Korean Cinderella. Honolulu Theatre for Youth’s A Korean Cinderella mixes modern K-pop with traditional Korean drumming, dance and costumes, and will return to Kahilu Theatre on Friday, November 15, 2019 at 7 pm. Written by Alvin Chan, A Korean Cinderella is a musical play that takes Korea’s traditional version of the classic Cinderella tale, “Konji and Patji,” and transforms it into a modern tale through a mixture of culturally specific theatre techniques and modern aesthetics popular in the host culture. “We’ve interwoven the colorful, flashy world of K-pop with traditional Korean costumes, musical instruments and dance. Audiences are in for a wild ride,” says Eric Johnson, the play’s director. http://kahilutheatre.org/Home
