He played leads OR led the orchestra AND?OR did a pre-show narrative. Audiences loved them – and the “family” atmosphere of community theatre was enhanced by wonderful music and spot-on lyrics. [Kilauea Drama and Entertainment Network: KDEN is finally repeating a summer musical after 20 years of solid quality entertainment next door to an erupting volcano!] Head to Hawaii Island in July for the entertainment of a lifrtime!

My 10 year old daughter and niece were in “LOVE” with The Prince (we all were). I wasn’t aware of his reputation then, Job well done by the entire cast!
