BRAVO! BRAVO! BRAVO! PACK’s latest production of Westside Story was phenomenally great! Like really, really good! Westside Story is one of my all-time favorite«classic» movie & musical play and I must say, PACKids did this production justice! Who can resist singing along to «When you’re a Jet,» or «I Wanna Live in America,» or even belt out, «take my hand and I’ll take you there…» or «I Feel Pretty, oh so pretty!» PACKids really outdid themselves by singing, dancing and acting their hearts out on stage — it was truly believable and something they can be proud to have been a part of. I know I was proud to have witnessed such a beautiful musical. It’s no secret, i embrace local entrepreneurial endeavors and that affinity does not end with just my purchases. I support local talent when I can. Here in west Oahu there is not a shortage of talents and skills. PACK is a local, non-profit, after school musical theatre group that puts on 4 – 5 musical productions in a year. Children audition for parts and should be able to sing, dance, recite and act. It’s the real deal at PACK! Since moving to west Oahu I have seen School House Rock Jr., their Christmas Holiday production, Little Mermaid and now, Westside Story. These kids are amazing! I’ve seen them grow with each performance and their sets get better and better. No need to drive into town anymore to catch a play at Diamond Head, Manoa Valley or Hawaii Theatre… PACKids ROCK!
