Kahilu Theatre Presents the Pop Culture Phenomenon Schoolhouse Rock Live!

A great night of family entertainment based on the popular 1970s cartoon series, Schoolhouse Rock Live! is a fast-paced musical that teaches lessons with clever, catchy tunes and will take the Kahilu Theatre stage on Thursday, February 20, 2020 at 7 PM.

The Emmy Award-winning 1970s Saturday morning cartoon series that taught history, grammar, math, science and politics through clever, tuneful songs is not only making a small-screen comeback, instructing a whole new generation to “Unpack Your Adjectives” and “Do The Circulations,” it’s lighting up stages everywhere, from school multi-purpose rooms to university and regional theatres all around the country.

The story follows Tom, a nerve-wracked school teacher anxious about his first day of teaching. Tom tries to relax by watching TV when various characters representing facets of his personality emerge from the set to show him how to win his students over with imagination and music. Through this fast-paced musical reintroduces beloved Schoolhouse Rock songs as “Just A Bill,” “Lolly, Lolly, Lolly” and “Conjunction Junction.”

Bringing its infectious zest to a cross-generational audience, Schoolhouse Rock Live! will perform at the Kahilu Theatre on Thursday, February 20, 2020 at 7 PM. From children just discovering the TV series to “Generation X-ers” seeking a taste of nostalgia will delight in this sure-fire entertainment that’s simply good, clean—and educational—fun. Generously sponsored by Frances and Roy Simperman and The Westin Hapuna Beach Resort.
