My wife and I saw Ulalena in 2005 and were really impressed by its infectious energy, its awesome imagery, and, most of all, its incredibly stirring music. The lead musician (who has since left the troupe) was frenetic. He provided a complete show of his own, with the most compelling performance we have ever enjoyed.

What an utter disappointment ...

This was actually not in my plan at the beginning! But after hearing some great reviews about it, I decided to give it a shot. And I'm so glad I made that decision. In fact, it became the greatest thing I have done in this island. My limited vocabulary cannot say enough how much I enjoyed the show. But as a brief description about what Ulalena ...

I had no idea what to expect, but I never would have imagined a production like this one. I wish they had a DVD of the production, I would have bought it that night. I wasn't impresses with the dinner served before the show, and one sections of the play was a bit long (regarding the field workers). Otherwise, it was wonderful.

We expected more, there was a lot of singing, great costumes, very colorful. It's a history presentation. Live sound effects and music. The best parts were a funny part with a pig and acrobat dancing in a hanging ring. Would not waist time.

We thoroughly enjoyed the show, which was about an hour and fifteen minutes. Like everything on Maui, it's expensive (unless you want to sit through someone's timeshare presentation--then it's cheap).

This show is for the whole family, and the colors, dancing, and singing are truly outstanding.

In our first trip to Hawaii on our anniversary, the last thing I had in mind was going to sit in a theater... However hearing buzz about it at a breakfast we decided why not... I am not the sort of guy to intentionally want to go to these type of shows, but I am now... the music and the dance was so awe inspiring. It was possibly the most memorable ...
