Hawaii’s Jamie Offenbach returns as The Bonze!Without these three, this production would not be possible! In 2009, Dean Shibuya (Set Designer) and Anne Namba (Costume Designer) joined HOT’s Artistic Director Henry Akina (Stage Director) in Finland to bring some Aloha to the Savonlinna Opera Festival! This production has wowed international audiences since and has finally made it to Honolulu for a homecoming!
