Photo Flash: Kumu Kahua Theatre Presents Da Kine Space

In Lee Tonouchi's Da Kine Space you will meet Cy, a failed artist frustrated by his life and relationships, and Jader, a wannabe filmmaker with some odd ideas about art. As Cy and Jader confront the creative process, pop culture, the generation gap and more, the theatre becomes a living art gallery in this innovative new comedy. Lee A. Tonouchi, the author of Living Pidgin and Gone Feeshing, brings his sharply-honed pidgin and offbeat sense of humor to this wry study of art and life in contemporary Hawai‘i.
