Kumulipo Theater
Kumulipo Theater Multimedia Object Theater (2006) ‘Imiloa Astronomy Center of Hawaii Hilo, Hawaii Science North, in partnership with AldrichPears Associates in Vancouver and The Taylor Group in Toronto provided exhibition design-build services for the new ‘Imiloa Astronomy Center of Hawaii. This group of Canadian firms designed, fabricated and installed the exhibits and theaters for this world-class center. Science North produced an object theater that is an artistic and sensory re-enactment of the Kumulipo. The experience transports audiences into another world where they journey back to the origins of life. Ingrained in this story of origins is the story of Piko, which celebrates the connection and continuity between Hawaiians, the islands, and the diversity of life. The theater brings the story to life with dramatic visuals and an immersive environment. Compelling chant and stimulating lights and sounds tell the Hawaiian story of creation in a theatrical and entertaining way. 28 100 Ramsey Lake Road, Sudbury, Ontario, Canada P3E 5S9 T: 705.522.3701 F: 705.522.4954 W: sciencenorth.ca/exhibitsalesandconsulting
