The house lights dim and the humid breath of Waikīkī slips through an open hotel lobby; the ocean beyond seems to hold its own applause. In the intimate Outrigger Waikīkī Beachcomber theatre, ʻAuana opens like a chapter of island lore: acrobats arc through air, hula dancers shape the story, and musicians thread traditional chant with modern pulse.
