CAESAR: FILMED ON STAGE Thursday March 13th at 7pm CAESAR: FILMED ON STAGE Thursday March 13th at 7pm Relive the thrills and chills in an all new film adaption that brings you back to those fateful Ides of March. Adapted & Directed by Theon Weber Starring Jeremy Lee, Erin Healani Chung, Saul Rollason William Shakespeare’s iconic tragedy came to life on the Palace stage on March 15th, 2024. The Palace Theater is proud to present a filmed version of Theon Weber’s bold adaptation of the timeless political thriller. CAESAR brings William Shakespeare’s classic 1599 tragedy of ambition, assassination, and civil war to terrifying, fully modern life in an audience-immersing multimedia production directed by Hilo Shakespeare veteran Theon Weber. Starring Jeremy Lee, Erin Healani Chung, Saul Rollason, and the Palace Theater itself; and featuring video segments by MERMAID’S LAMENT cinematographer Roselio Hernandez, CAESAR is a 425-year-old play telling a 2068-year-old story that could only be told like this now, and only at the Palace. Beware the ides of March. *This show is for mature audiences, with a suggested rating of PG-13 for brief bloody violence and threatening situations
SHIKATA GA NAI Sunday March 9th at 1pm It is 1999 SHIKATA GA NAI Sunday March 9th at 1pm It is 1999, and Tatsuo “Tats” Kaneshiro is a veteran of WWII living out his autumn days in the quiet seclusion of his suburban home in Hawaii. A member of the famed 442 RCT, the all Nisei (second generation Japanese American) infantry regiment that became the most decorated war unit in American history, Tats spends his time doing the crossword puzzle, tending to his garden, watching television, cooking his favorite SOS (Shit on a Shingle), and occasionally entertaining company like an old army buddy he plays chess with, and his single parent daughter and attention deficit grandson. But the peace that seemingly hovers over his daily existence masks his internal struggle. For though the war has been over for 50 years, Tats relives it every day due to a haunting secret about his time in battle that he has kept to himself. Inspired by the true life tendencies of many 442 veterans who have never told their families of their war experiences, “Shikata Ga Nai” tells of the battles that these now declining heroes have faced on their own without no one else knowing. Filmmakers will be in attendance for discussion. Visit our website at hilopalace.com to purchase tickets, and we’ll see you at the show!
