The PAC Calendar

The KCC Performing Arts Center is a multiple use venue with a 600 seat mainstage, a mammoth Dance Studio with Kauai's only sprung dance floor, ballet bars and mirrors, two dressing rooms, huge Green Room, Music Studio (coming soon) and a beautiful Lobby with rotating art shows complimented by fourteen high top cafe tables with bar stools.

The PAC will launch an ongoing FREE Movie Series beginning this Saturday, July 5, 4pm. There is no cost to enter, but if you can drop a donation into the hat to support the KCC Student Clubs, that would be greatly appreciated.

We will try to do one movie weekly to start off with. As the attendance grows, we will look to increase that schedule. We do not have an advertising budget, and rely solely upon this email list and our social media. We need your help enlisting new people to subscribe to the list. Please spread the word by giving your friends and colleagues my email address to signup KCCPAC.

The Movie Series will strive to show you films you have never seen...but are fun, funny, thrilling, sexy...sometimes at the same time! Also, the film will be a surprise with me just providing a minimum of intel...like genre or theme and country.

Because it's 4th of July WEEK, the film on Saturday with be from the ole US of A. Music is key to it...and that predominantly is music from the 70s, often referred to as Singers & Songwriters. I really love this film, not only because of the music, but also the humor and the innovative ways the director presents them.

I promise, if you don't like it as much as I do, I'll refund your admission fee. Let me know if you are planning to make it, Saturday, The 5th of July, 4pm. Click KCCPAC

The UH Manoa production of RENT directed by Joshua "Baba" Tavares, will travel to Kauai with a company of 50 made up of actors and techies, August 8 - 10. They will do three performances, including 7pm on Friday & Saturday and close with a 1:30pm Sunday matinee.

This huge production needs community assistance to make it possible. We are seeking 3 sponsors + 3 co-sponsors, one each for each of the performances. The sponsorships include tickets, marketing plus a donation made to the Food Bank

Air transportation courtesy of Southwest Airlines. If you would like a sponsorship packet, contact Gregory von Hausch, Greg3512@hawaii.edu.

The week started out great as well, when UHNews published a story written by KCC's Marketing Director Caitlin Fowlkes on the PAC. UH News also distributed the video-story to multiple Hawaiian television outlets, and they picked it up! Thanks Caitlin!
