‘Ulalena “Talk Story” with Cast Member Vene Chun

Posted on September 23, 2011 by Ulalena Maui

If you’ve ever experienced ‘Ulalena when on Maui, you know how much the performers give to a performance. The show is moving and powerful, but the people behind the characters are who bring the story to life. We recently sat down with Vene Chun, who plays the High Chief (Ali’i) to discover what the show means to him.

Cast Member Vene Chun, his son, and two nephews after an 'Ulalena Performance

Vene is a cultural practitioner whose Hawaiian roots touch everyone he meets. An important figure in Hawaiian Fishpond restoration and master of the sailing canoe (wa’a), Vene truly embodies the Aloha Spirit.

Vene joined ‘Ulalena four years ago and currently plays the role of high chief. In fact, his fourth anniversary was on August 26 of this year. He had never been on the stage, but his commanding presence caught the eye of then stage manager Caro Walker at the local shopping mall.  Through hard work and plenty of natural “mana” or life force, Vene is definitely an ‘Ulalena standout.

Throughout the years, what has made you continue to be a part of ‘Ulalena?

“Truly the story itself and carrying the responsibility (or kuleana) of our ancestors. Highlighting the language, mythology, history and self-sustainable lifestyle of the people who originated here, and being able to share the “Ike” (knowledge) of their way of life.”

What’s your favorite scene and character in the show?

“My favorite scene has got to be the Lua scene. It’s full of energy and highlights the secret Hawaiian martial art that people rarely get to experience. My favorite character is Haloa, or the taro, because he is the first ancestor of our kupuna (elders). Hawaiians believe that he is always near, watching the changes and transformations of Hawaiian people. In our mythology Haloa is the strongest warrior of all the Hawaiians.”

Three words to describe the show:

“Our tagline says is best: Creation, Transformation, and Rebirth.”

Three words to describe Hawaiian culture:

The breath, the source, and Akua (God).

How would you describe the show to someone who has never seen it?

I can’t put it into words. ‘Ulalena is a feeling, a story that can only be understood by the heart.

Interested in seeing Vene perform?  Tickets to ‘Ulalena can be purchased online via the Maui Theatre’s website, on Facebook (don’t forget to “like” us) or by calling us at 1-877-688-4800.  Plus, our V.I.P. packages include an after-show “meet and greet” with Vene and all of ‘Ulalena’s amazing performers!

Inside Nico’s World: Amazing ‘Ulalena Percussionist and his many “toys”

Posted on July 29, 2011 by Ulalena Maui

Some would say that the sun never sets on Nico Spezzacatena.  Fifty-one instruments, from around the globe, adorn his spot on ‘Ulalena’s bandstand.  They call his instrumental lair “the cage,” but it can hardly contain his passion and enthusiasm for indigenous music.
 
“Music brings people together, wherever you are.  It is a necessary part of life,” he explains.
 
Spezzacatena, from Hoboken, New Jersey, has devoted the last twenty years of his life to learning, teaching and performing traditional music and dance.  He earned his BFA and MFA in World Music Performance at the California Institute of the Arts but traveled as far as West Africa, Puerto Rico and Bali to explore the societal connections between percussion, song and dance.
 
Spezzacatena describes some elements that are integral in traditional music forms: “You cannot have one component without the others.  Instrumentation + Song + Dance = Music, in the non-western society.”
 
These are sage words from a man who makes his living supplying the heart-beat to a show, like ‘Ulalena:  a production that dances, chants and sings its way through the Hawaiian mythos.
 
Nico believes his cultural travels and studies “fit in perfectly with the story of ‘Ulalena, as do the instruments.”  Thus, he has been a fixture, on Maui, and at the Maui Theatre, for the past ten years.  
 
Thanks to the power of the world-wide-web, he has managed to continue his musical education, while residing in the middle of the Pacific.  He is able to study with authentic, indigenous, teachers from foreign countries, via Skype.  
 
Nico furthers his life-work, contributing as a board member and field-researcher for the Nada Brahma Foundation – a non-profit organization dedicated to the preservation of indigenous cultures.

‘Ulalena Adds a Special Touch to a Special Wedding

Posted on June 30, 2011 by Ulalena Maui

The view from the intimate stage where we sang for the wedding party.

Picture this:  a beautiful summer night on Maui. The wind lightly caressing your skin, and the sound of the ocean whispering in the night air. Last night was a night such as this, and for two people, it was one of the most important of their lives.

A very special program was prepared for this intimate wedding, and ‘Ulalena was there to help make it come to life.

‘Ulalena Musician Anthony Natividad helped the bride work on ‘Olelo Noeau (Hawaiian proverbs) that would serve as the backbone of the performance. He shared the Aloha spirit throughout the reception, which was filled with beautiful music,song, and poetry provided by the groom, bride, & other special guests.

The finale of the reception was the icing on the cake. ‘Ulalena vocalist Lia Krieg sang the title song of the show while Anthony played the drums and nose flute. Guests were treated to a surprise when the bride, groom, and others joined Lia in singing the ‘Ulalena chant.

New Faces Grace the ‘Ulalena Stage, including a former Broadway Star!

Posted on June 2, 2011 by Ulalena Maui

Broadway performer, Tahitian dancer join ‘Ulalena

Maui Theatre’s ‘Ulalena show, recently welcomed two, new, cast members into the fold.

Chloe Stewart grew up on Oahu, where she attended Castle High School.  After graduating, she left Hawai’i to perform in a First National tour of the, Tony winning, production: Miss Saigon.  She moved to New York, shortly thereafter, and worked on the Broadway version of the show.

As an original cast member of four First National tour shows, she performed roles such as “Marguerite,” in The Scarlet Pimpernel and “Tuptim” in a Broadway revival production of The King and I.

Stewart toured as a featured singer in Andrew Lloyd Webber’s Music of the Night and has performed across the United States and Europe.  She has appeared on TV, several times, and worked with directors such as Nicholas Hytner (Artisitic Director of London’s National Theatre), Acadamy Award-winning director, Eric Simonson, of Steppenwolf Theatre Company, and Scott Ellis of Roundabout Theatre.

She studied acting in New York and Los Angeles, with a bevy of renowned instructors, but most recently, Stewart has been teaching acting at the prestigious Orange County High School of the Arts; an experience she found “incredibly rewarding and inspiring.”

“Right now there is nowhere in the world I would rather be than back home in Hawai’i.  I’m grateful to be part of ‘Ulalena and I feel honored to be performing with each and every member of this cast and crew.”

Born in Tahiti, Tereva Fontaine grew up in a family of dancers.  Her mother, Muriel, was a backdrop dancer in the famous Mutiny on the Bounty starring Marlon Brando.  Her sister, Heira’i, is a three-time winner of the Heiva I Tahiti solo competition.

Tereva started dancing Tahitian at the age of thirteen in the Conservatory of Tahiti.  She started as a jazz and modern dancer but migrated to Tahitian dance under the influence of her sister.

At fourteen, she started performing with Les Grands Ballets de Tahiti: the prestigious, contemporary, Polynesian dance group.  She, quickly, became the “pride and joy” of Les Grands Ballets, where she was nicknamed “The Washing Machine” for her amazing ability to mimic its motion.

At the age of eighteen, she took third place in the solo competition at the Heiva I Tahiti.  Shortly after, she moved to Maui and fell in love with the island and its people.  She has lived there, ever since.

‘Ulalena’s ‘Imiloa Team: Focusing on Perpetuating the Hawaiian Culture

Posted on May 18, 2011 by Ulalena Maui

‘Imiloa is a Hawaiian word that means “exploration driven by a sense of wonder and imagination”. What better word to describe what the ‘Ulalena staff stands for as it seeks to inspire and educate the world about the Hawaiian culture.  As if the ‘Ulalena show is not testament enough, the cast, crew, and staff have decided to take their mission a step further by getting involved with the community and cultural practitioners in a unique way that expresses the true spirit of ‘Ulalena’s message.

Kipe Ebana, original cast member and former dance captain, was recently appointed the head of ‘Imiloa as Cultural Advisor. What does this mean for the show? Ebana says that “it means working with the creative team and different cultural advisors to make
sure ‘Ulalena is culturally sound, not in only what we say but what we
do.”

Ebana has scheduled workshops for the cast and crew to help develop and maintain ‘Ulalena’s cultural relevance and accuracy. Many notable Hawaiian Cultural Practitioners such as Clifford Naeole, Charles Kaupu, O’Brian Eselu, Hokulani Holt Padilla, and Nalani Kanakaole will share their knowledge and expertise in their respected fields to help ensure that ‘Ulalena continues to be relevant and true to its roots.

The cast has already undergone an ‘Oli (chanting) workshop with Charles Kaupu, a lecture with O’Brian, and looks forward to learning more from the masters of Hawaiian art and culture as part of ongoing training. In addition, ‘Ulalena has adopted “Hui O Wa’a Kaulua” as its community service project for the year.  Ebana states that “Clifford Naeole thought that the idea our company in one

wa’a ‘moving’ together would be very symbolic and perfect fit for us.
We are putting together a cultural package with Maui Ocean Center,
Trilogy, and ‘Ulalena where a % of the proceeds will go this awesome
organization.”  The ‘Ulalena staff will also donate their own personal time to the organization, which seeks to educate the keiki (children) of Maui about the ancient Hawaiian art of navigation.

‘Ulalena Cast Member Kipe Ebana and Halau Ke Kai O Kahiki seek overall winner “three-peat” at Merrie Monarch

Posted on April 29, 2011 by Ulalena Maui

Halau Ke Kai O Kahiki seeks to “three-peat,” as overall winners, at the 48th Annual Merrie Monarch Festival.   The three-day event, held in Hilo, Hawaii, begins on Thursday, April 28th with the Ms. Aloha Hula competition.  On Friday, kahiko (traditional hula) is judged and Saturday exhibits the ‘auana (modern hula) dancers and the awards ceremony.


The highly-regarded dance group is headed by kumu hula O’Brien Eselu (an original cultural contributor, and choreographer, for ‘Ulalena) who, recently, paid a visit to the cast and employees of the Maui Theatre:

“I was crying, you know, sitting over here.  I look at the show and how it’s evolved.  Gang, when the audience gives you a standing ovation, that’s what we entertainers live for.  You got to their heart, their na’au.  Being a performer is who we are.  Onstage and offstage, it’s who we are.”

'Ulalena Original Cast Member: Kipe Ebana

Kipe Ebana, an ‘Ulalena, original, cast member, will join Halau Ke Kai O Kahiki at this year’s competition.  It will be his 7th Merrie Monarch appearance with the group.  His first time was in 1983, at the age of 13.  He, also, participated in the 2004 competition when they won first place for men’s kahiko.  Ke Kai O Kahiki was the “overall” competition winner in 2009 and 2010.

Ebana detailed his training regime with Eselu: “I’ve been flying to Honolulu, twice a week, for hula practice.  Only six to eight of the boys from our halau will compete.  Both of the mele that we’re performing, this year, honor the island of Kauai.”

At the Maui Theatre, Eselu shared stories of working with owner Roy Tokujo, producer Roger Parent and the experts responsible for the Hawaiian content in ‘Ulalena.

He worked alongside Charles Ka’upu (chant instructor), Nalani Kanaka’ole (chants and hula) and Lyons Naone III (Hawaiian martial arts or lua).   They were guided by two kupuna (elders),  Auntie Nona Beamer and Auntie Irmgard Aluli, who helped put the show’s cultural value beyond reproach.

O’Brien affirmed, “You guys: know that you have a good show.  Know that there’s no other show, in Hawaii, like this.  They try… just try – they cannot.”

Ko’ie’ie: Rebuilding a Traditional Hawaiian Fishpond

Posted on March 29, 2011 by Ulalena Maui

On the “mokupuni” (island) of Maui Nui, within the “moku” (district) of Kula, isPhoto Courtesy: Scott Inesan ”ahupua’a” (land division) called Kaono’ulu.  In ancient times a land division or ahupua’a consisted of an area which ran from mountain (mauka) to sea (makai).  Along the shoreline area of the Kaono’ulu ahupua’a there remains an ancient fishpond called “Ko’ie’ie Loko I’a.” (also known as Rushing Waters)  Located on the “Kona” or south-side of the isle,  this fishpond is a reminder of the people who once cared for the land before us.  They were called Kanaka Maoli, also known today as the Hawaiian People.  This ancient civilization cultured a connection between the heaven, the earth, the ocean, and man.  It was through their observations of nature, and the life cycles of its natural resources, that the ancient people were able to sustain themselves.  For thousands of years, the Hawaiian Islands were an estuary of food, water, medicine, and building material for almost a population of 1,000,000.  The key to their success … FISHPONDS!

The ancient Hawaiian fishpond is a sophisticated land and ocean resource management technique.  Utilizing raw materials such as rocks, corals, vines, and woods, the Hawaiians created great walls (kuapa) and gates (makaha) for these fishponds.  The fishponds allowed the ancient Hawaiians to provide food stock for the people who lived within its ”ahupua’a.”  This food stock mainly consisted of herbivore fish such as ‘ama’ama (striped mullet, Mugil cephalus) and awa (milkfish, Chanos chanos).  The main difference between a Hawaiian fishpond from all other fishponds in the South Pacific was the unique design of the makaha or sluice gate.  The kuapa-styled or rock-walled fishpond was built near streams that entered the ocean over or near a coral reef.  It was this rich soup of organic matter, sunlight, and oxygen that created “limu” (seaweed), algae, and other micro-organisms (such as phytoplankton) – food source for the herbivore fish.  There are basically five (5) types of fishponds ranging from freshwater, to brackish water, and ocean water designs.  Ko’ie’ie Loko I’a is a kuapa-styled wall.

According to the mo’olelo or story of Ko’ie’ie, it was said to have been built by the Menehune (mystical beings).  In the 16th Century, under the rule of a Chief called ‘Umi, ten thousand (10,000) maka’ainana (commoners) were enlisted with the task of rebuilding this fishpond.  All kuapa fishponds belonged to the Chiefs and were considered “royal” or kapu to the Chiefs.  This makes Ko’ie’ie fishpond at least 500 years old.  In the late 1700s came the arrival of foreigners to the islands which would change the Hawaiian Culture forever.  Disease decimated the host culture.  The ancient way of life for the Hawaiian people would slowly collapse with the introduction of Western ideas and influences.  The beloved Islands of Hawaii would someday be governed by a foreign nation!  Along with this change, came the destruction and degradation of the Hawaiian fishponds.

Today, there are those Kanaka Maoli who hear the calling of fishpond revitalization and restoration.  The one time 11-acre fishpond of Ko’ie’ie has been reduced to 3-acres, but the foundation of the wall remains at this site.  It is my goal and “kuleana” (responsibility) to restore  Ko’ie’ie.  Currently, the wall is approximately 1,100 ft long, 20 ft wide at the base, 10 ft wide at the top, and approximately 5.5 ft high.  Prior, to the tsunami on March 11, 2011 we were approximately 750 ft. completed.  The fishpond has taken some damage!  We will continue to “holomua” and move forward with its restoration.  ‘Ao’ao O Na Loko I’a O Maui is a non-profit organization dedicated to restoring fishponds on Maui, starting with Ko’ie’ie.  The wall will stand again!  Ko’ie’ie Loko I’a is an educational, archaeological, cultural, historical, and recreational treasure which we will no longer admire as a thing of the past, but the key to our future!

‘Ulalena Show Lyrics & Translation, Laka: The Forest Dweller

Posted on January 7, 2011 by Ulalena Maui

Dedicated to Laka, the Goddess of forest growth, creator of Hula, and sometimes known as the Goddess of Love, this song is performed as the Mo’o (Lizard guardian) playfully “dances” in the waterfall.

Laka is a very important Goddess in Hawaiian mythology and is often associated with Pele (the volcano Goddess) and her sisters. Laka is revered by hula practitioners and many Hula chants and dances are dedicated to her.

Below are the lyrics to the song, as well as the translation into English.

Laka: The Forest Dweller

O laka kaulana puoholani

Eo mai oe e laka i ka nahele

‘O wao ka muo e kali nei

E hanai ai a hewa ka waha

Ua hele au me ‘oe e laka e

O Le’a a Loa ke kama nahele

I ke kuahiwi ka hoa o ka wao

I ke kani o loko nei au e

E laka e, e laka e

Eo mai ‘oe i a’u e

E laka e, e laka e

E li e li ka u mai e

E hou’lu mai ka honua mai

Ulu ka ohi’a lau noka ‘ie ‘ie

O Laka kuahu wahine a Lono

O lono e hui kalani hui honua

E laka e, e laka e

Eo mai ‘oe i a’u e

E laka e, e laka e

E li e li ka u mai e

E laka e, e laka e

Eo mai ‘oe i a’u e

E laka e, e laka e, laka e

English:

O, Laka, famed one, the soul awakener

We call upon  We call upon you, o dweller of the forest

It is a bud waiting for nourishment

To partake of all there is

I stand at the forest’s edge in anticipation

To see you, o dweller in the mists

That is my burning desire

That your spirit inspires my soul

There roamed I , too, with Laka

Of Lea and Loa, a wilderness child

On ridge in forest boon companion she

To the heart that throbbed in me

To bloom forth from Mother Earth

Like the Ohia that grows & the ‘Ie ‘ie leaf

O goddess Laka of the altar,

Sister of Lono

Lono who joins both heaven and earth

O Laka, O Laka

Hark my call

You approach, it is well

You possess me, I am blessed

It is a bud

‘Ulalena Grants a Christmas Wish for a Maui Family

Posted on December 30, 2010 by Ulalena Maui

This Christmas ‘Ulalena was blessed to be able to grant a wish for a less-fortunate Maui family.  The Ka’auai family’s only two Christmas wishes were new bedding for their 8 children, and a chance to see the ‘Ulalena show.  The family currently resides at the Hale ‘O Waine’e shelter in Lahaina, and is solely dependent on the income provided by the oldest sibling, and their father who lives and works on Moloka’i. The children range in age from 2-21 years old and are a lively bunch full of Aloha.

Front of house supervisors, Robyn Hussey and Mel Facuri-Juario received a call from a Diamond Resort Activity agent who was trying to make the Ka’auai family’s dream come true. Diamond Resorts had already generously donated brand new bedding for each of the Ka’auai children.  Both Mel and Robynn wanted to take the family’s wish a step further and approached the ‘Ulalena staff with the family’s story. In addition to a Christmas Eve show at ‘Ulalena, they were able to gather donations from the cast and crew so that each child would have a gift waiting for them under our ‘Ulalena Christmas tree. “It feels great to know we are helping someone have a brighter Christmas.” said Robynn, “Giving them tickets to the show is easy, we wanted to go a step further to make it really special.”

Dennis Pruessler, our general manager, also stepped in and sought the help of one of our dinner partners, Lahaina Prime Rib and Fish Company on Front Street. They generously offered the family a complimentary dinner before the show so they could enjoy the full ‘Ulalena experience.  The family was greeted by cast members after the show, and the family truly enjoyed themselves.

The cast members were touched by the family’s presence at the show. It reminded them that what our shows finale is all about, hope for the future of our island’s people. What a way to celebrate Christmas with this wonderful family.

‘Ulalena Show Lyrics: Navegante

Posted on December 17, 2010 by Ulalena Maui

The scene depicting Western contact in our show is one of the most emotional. Showcasing the struggle of embracing new ways while preserving ancient ones, this scene captures the feelings of discovery, excitement, confusion, sadness, anger, and frustration in a beautiful moment.

The song “Navegante” is sung in Portuguese, paying homage to the great Portuguese explorers… Its beautiful lyrics and haunting orchestration provide the backdrop to a emotionally charged scene in our show.

Navegante (Portuguese)                                                  Navegante(English)
