Summary:
FLOWERS OF HAWAI'I includes the title play and three others (Aloha Attire, The Great Kaua'i Train Robbery, and Uncle's Regularly Scheduled Garage Party is Cancelled Tonight) by notable playwright Lee Cataluna. "These four collected plays also illustrate some of the power of the body of Lee Cataluna's work from their commonalities: authentic language, strong memorable characters, effective plots, and strong narrative," writes actor, director, and theatre educator John H.Y. Wat in his introduction which provides context and analysis for each play. Cataluna's further introductory notes give readers insights into the inspirations for each play as well as some background and production history. Infused with Cataluna's unique brand of humor and style, this new collection brings Hawai'i life from the stage to the page.
