Why attending matters:
Theatre is vital to the health of the Maui Community, and Maui Onstage is only as strong as our loyal supporters. Next year, the county begins a long-planned roof replacement at the Historic ‘Iao Theater, and our stage will go dark for several months. “Join the build” by attending, participating in silent auctions, raising your paddle, pledging a donation, or engaging in one of the other opportunities to contribute.
Your support of Raise the Roof:
- Helps Maui OnStage to continue to operate through the closure
- Helps preserve the Historic ‘Iao Theater
- Ensures that live theatre continues to inspire audiences, educate young artists, and bring our community together for generations to come
- Keeps the lights on while the roof goes up
Dress the part: Dress is resort casual with creative construction-themed attire encouraged. Blueprints and boat shoes, safety goggles and sundresses, high-vis alohawear. A door prize goes to the most creative look of the night.
Tickets: $225 per person. This is a fundraiser open to all friends of the theater through September 15, and we expect to sell out. Space is limited. Reserve your seats now.
Every performance begins with a stage. Every standing ovation begins with a community. Together, we'll raise the roof and build the next one hundred years of theater on Maui.
