Live theater is back at the ʻAʻaliʻikūhonua Creative Arts Center in Makawao with the Seabury Hall Performing Arts Department presenting the musical “The World Goes ‘Round” Nov. 19, 20 and 21.

“The World Goes ‘Round” celebrates the songs of Kander & Ebb, one of the longest and most successful songwriting teams in American musical theater history. Their Broadway shows include Cabaret, Chicago, The Act, Woman of The Year, The Rink and Zorba — and films Funny Lady and New York, New York.

“Even during COVID, we’ve had a record number of students trying out,” director and choreographer David Ward said. “Kids are hungry for this experience.”

Molly Schad, the vocal and musical director, added: “Because students have lost so many of their usual activities, we wanted to offer this opportunity to as many students as we could.”

The cast of 33 is headed by principals Jack Bendon, Marina Carosso, Bobby Goldyn, Jadyn Gurly, Joshua O’Connor, Stef Peterson, Sophie Preiser, Kristian Lloyd Roque, Preston Summit, Max Tramontin and Leela Waterford, with two dozen other singers and dancers.
