Access to Tickets
Kumu Kahua Theatre is a proud participant of PLAYWRIGHTS WELCOME.
If you are a playwright, you can see our shows for free through this initiative! Playwrights Welcome is a program created to support and inspire playwrights, composers, lyricists, and librettists. Developed for the Dramatists Guild of America members, Playwrights Welcome is a national ticketing initiative created by Samuel French, a Concord Theatricals company, along with input from other publishing and licensing houses.
By offering free tickets to dramatists, we believe that theatres and arts organizations are able to increase their reach by offering plays to artists who may not be able to see them otherwise.
Fuller houses, fuller communities, fuller artistic lives. Hurray!
To reserve your free ticket, please contact our box office at 808-536-4441, by emailing officemanager -at- kumukahua.org, or by visiting us at 46 Merchant Street. (Our office hours are Monday to Friday, 11:00 a.m. to 3 p.m.)
Access to Plays
The NATIONAL NEW PLAY NETWORK (NNPN) is an alliance of professional theaters that collaborate in innovative ways to develop, produce, and extend the life of new plays. Founded in 1998, NNPN continues to revolutionize the new play landscape through the strength of its member theaters, collaborative efforts, and its nationally recognized programs and services for artists and organizations.
NNPN boasts a diverse roster of Member Theaters through its two-tiered membership structure: Core Members, the governing network of theaters with annual budgets over $150,000 and missions that affirm a dedication to new works; and Associate Members, companies that produce or develop at least one new work per year and demonstrate a commitment to NNPN’s values.
