HTY Announces SHHHHH

Audiences will be charmed by Annie Cusick Wood's latest play, Shhhhh. Developed for our littlest audience members (3+) and their ohana, Shhhhh is a heart-warming and music-filled piece with plenty of physical and nonverbal antics and nonsense. Little ones will discover a quirky, magical world where words are locked up. Shhhhh shares with us the joy of having the courage to speak up for yourself and others.
