The People's Theatre

Event Description
Ecstatic Dance Honoka‘a is back with another special Saturday Evening Dance on Saturday, March 18, 2023.
We invite you to move with us on “Honoka‘a Green & Gold Day” as we celebrate Spring Equinox and promote Hō‘ā & Hāmākua Harvest’s Aloha ‘Āina Spring Equinox Planting (Sunday, March 19), and Hawai‘i Farmer’s Union United.
Facilitating this dance, we’re honored to host one of the Big Island’s dance music pioneers, Odysseus.
From what we gather, Odysseus has something very unique planned for us, as he will be accompanied by special guests performing alongside him during his set. Joining him for this dance are Samantha Smith, Marika Ripke, Hayden Spector, and Michael Drummer.
We can’t wait to see what he has up his sleeve!

More Information
Odysseus
Odysseus (Lush Hawaii) began his musical journey in the mid-nineties as a resident DJ for the California desert tribe Integral Gathering and for the LA-based Zodiac Tribe, playing eclectic sets often with live musicians, mixing Asian, Middle Eastern, and African elements into diverse beats.
After moving to Hawai‘i, Odysseus spearheaded legendary Big Island dance events at the turn of the millennium. He became one of the original Ecstatic Dance facilitators at Kalani, an event pioneered by his friend and fellow DJ Max Fathom. Odysseus has performed with Bass Nectar, Tipper, Treavor Moontribe, and many other lesser-known but just as talented artists. He simultaneously cultivates an underground club presence and has just returned from an invigorating tour of Amsterdam, Germany, and Belgium.
