    Went to see the SpongeBob musical and it was beyond fun, cute, and colorful. Imaginative costumes creating jellyfish and sardine characters. Courteous ushers. Practical and essential snack bar which carries diamond head theater reusable bags featuring the play season headliners in the design. Can't wait for the 2026 season. My cat loves to get in the bag. Ample free parking. Still a wonderful gem for entertainment. Great value for the incredible talent.

    Squeezed in a visit to Arendelle during my Hawaii trip -- Frozen the Musical, that is! I believe this was a local community production, but done so well! Didn't feel like an amateur or youth production, very professional, even the sets/costumes. Strong cast, singing on point. The venue was very nice! Comfortable seating, easy to purchase and decently-priced tickets online, great acoustics. Parking lot right across the street, and even a great view of the Waikiki skyline at night! The performance itself was very very good, especially the leads playing Elsa and Anna. Didn't purchase any concessions, but for this show they also had light-up snowflake wands for the kiddos to light up at a certain moment at the end of the show. Cute!

    Frozen... Currently running from July 26th to August 25th is Dinsney's Frozen the Musical and at the last moment I got a chance to experience it all with the flair that I could never imagine. As I got the notice of an extra ticket I literally flew at the chance to see Frozen and who wouldn't as it was an honor to even be though feeling so grateful and humble I was basically speechless for this opportunity. Tonight was hosted by First Hawaiian Bank and I was so impressed with the selection of activities as there was photo booth, food, drinks and even shaved ice (of course!) along with Elsa and Anna who was amazing and stunning with us all, the vibe was a bright and festive with the theme as I enjoyed my "Do You Want to Build a Snowman?" drink swirling my rock candy keeping things cool. The play was just wonderful the performers along with the theater staff who notify in a fun and polite way of the time we had before the show starts it was certainly the night to remember as I never experience anything like it. Thank you for my invite I'm so thankful and enjoyed the night very much, time spent with quality is certainly well worth the value. Remember to support the local artist along with Diamond Head Theatre who knows how to put on a show and more...bravo! Thank you!

    Diamond head Theater has improved a lot from the previous years with their new Theater. The seating is much better and more comfortable and the walk space to get in and out is wider. The restrooms are way more rooming with more stalls and sinks compared to the old building they had which the lines for the restrooms were backed up with long lines. The line of plays get better every year and fills up very fast. Wheelchair accessible

    Little sweetie has a performance this morning

    3-25-23 little sweetie's drama class presented what they learned on stage . The theme was a two person dialogue so each student was paired with a classmate. Only one pait had scripts in hand while the rest did a good to excellent job of memorizing lines and stage presence to be heard. The theatre holds several rows of seats. The theater is new with only 2 performances held. Do you believe all theaters are haunted?

    Love, love, love this newly-renovated venue! The auditorium is so light & spacious and clean, and seating has ample keg room for those of us with long legs. We saw "Mama Mia" last night and simply enjoyed every, single minute of it. You could tell the performers really enjoyed what they were doing so it translated into a very happy audience who could sing along to their favorite ABBA songs. The singers voices were awesome, especially Alison Aldcroft, who played the bride's mom. If you haven't been to this lovely space yet, find yourself an upcoming performance you'd like to see and check it out for yourself.

    Aloha, the newly redone DHT is beautiful. Great stage, sets and comfy seats. There truly is not a bad seat in the house. Nice lanai on the lee side of the theater to avoid wind and rain. Great access to nice clean restrooms and a nice cafe for a drink or snack. We saw My Fair Lady, great timeless musical. Easy handicap access. Awesome venue. Make your way to your favorite play or musical. Enjoy!

    New Theater, coming up.

    Diamond Head Theater has been a part of the Kaimuki community for many, many a year. What started out as a military theater for the Fort Ruger complex, it has been a long time location for Honolulu's performing arts, our community theater location. Quaint, intimate, cramped- the theater has been the home to popular plays, musicals and a host of other performing arts productions. Along the walls you have posters from past productions which give you a view of the rich tapestry of what has been available over the years. One can only imagine the enjoyment patrons have had watching classic musicals like South Pacific or more contemporary productions like Elf. In fact, the theater has just opened up (12/2021) again and their first production is Elf- perfect for the holidays. The big news is a new theater is in the making and anyone passing by the area can see it being constructed just mauka of the existing theater. It looks much larger than the current theater so it will be exciting to see what it has to offer. Support your local theater- Diamond Head theater could be considered the heart of the Kaimuki performing arts community.

    This was our first time at the Diamond Head Theatre and we're already excited for the next show! I never saw their old theater, but the new one completed in January 2023 is gorgeous. I definitely see why they're known as "The Broadway of the Pacific". And for such a fair price, too! The staff were all so friendly and helpful, offering a true serving of the aloha spirit. You can tell everyone is happy to be there! We didn't get any food or drink this time, but from what we saw, their menu offers a lot for both young and old! Also, their sipping cups allow you to enjoy an adult beverage without worrying that you'll spill and mess up the aisles.

    Free parking!

There's no stairs so be prepare to walk down the ramp and it'll be on your left facing Kapiolani Boulevard street. I didn't see any signs either except for the one by the door which isn't that big. The store is huge with a variety of costumes to choose from. Everything is pricey so either you pay for your costumes for convenience or come up with your creative design it yourself (DIY). Also, no returns are allowed after 10/22/24. There was only 1 staff I found on the floor to help me find the angel wings. She pointed on the back direction which is not hard to find. It's all I needed to buy. When I got to the line, there were 3 staffs on the counter chitchatting. I don't know if you need that many people on the counter. Oh, I was the only one in line ;). The store is open Monday to Friday from 10:00 am to 10:00 pm. Saturday from 9:00 am to 10:00 pm. Sunday from 9:00 am to 9:00 pm. Thank you for reading my review. Have a great Trick or Treating.

This time we came 2 weeks BEFORE! So ADVICE... come here EARLY to avoid the CROWD. There was a LONG LINE last time because so much people were going in for the last minute sales. Even then the price was high! We paid $70 for a damn KNUCKLES FIT FOR A 3 year old boy. And it only came with the gloves for the hand and the head was attached to the suit. But even THAT didn't hold up well. I had to improvise by using a hat underneath to hold the spike up! So if anyone knows any 3-4 year old who wants to be knuckles for Halloween, I have the SUIT FOR SURE. I think we have to look for the gloves. Anywho, I'll be back if anything's different. Otherwise thanks for looking and good luck! Happy Hallows Eve!

Not sure what's her name, but she was an older Caucasian lady. They were there for about 3 hours or so and never once did I see a line to get a balloon. Probably because 1 of many reasons.... 1. I witnessed one of my nephews trying to get a balloon and he had to explain to the lady why he was getting another one. **he should not have to explain to the lady why he needs another balloon. The balloons are unlimited for 3 hours! There wasn't a line. The lady was just sitting there. 2. My friend told me that she had to help my other 5 year old nephew get a balloon because the balloon twister refused to help him since she was unable to make the balloon he wanted. She just so happened to be next to the vendor and heard her tell him to "go get your mommy". Instead of showing him the balloon folder of what she could make, she just refused to make him a balloon. My friend went over to help him pick one from the folder of pictures . **I don't understand why she couldn't just show him the balloon folder to begin with... maybe she just didn't want to deal with him. AGAIN, there was no line. ** 3. My daughter has a whole lot to say about the balloon lady. She kept saying how rude she was... In all honesty, I wasn't going to write a review about the rude balloon twister, but my daughter randomly brought it up again after 1 month. She said "remember that balloon twister lady... she said multiple times that she needs to save her balloons because she has other parties to go to"... **again, THERE WAS NEVER A LINE.

They arrived early to set up and immediately went to work and were cranking out balloons and face paints non stop for 2 hours and the kids kept getting back in line giving them no time to rest. They handled it like champs and I would recommend them to anyone.
