My First Ulalena Maui Experience




My experience was held as a Tweetup at the Ulalena Maui in
Lahaina. I was invited through twitter and if you bought a local made dish for pu pu's you could see the show for free.I took advantage because I haven't seen this amazing show at all. It has been playing a while now. I was very excited too, to meet other Maui tweeters. It was the biggest tweet up yet.

I am glad to have made new friends in real life and to re unite with others that I had previously met through twitter.I hope to meet all my Maui followers/following .
The food was good. The theme was to bring a local made dish,so I contributed baked purple potatoes. I tried a bite of just about every dish As the show began ,I am excited,just to be in a wonderful theater atmosphere. I was impressed with it all! The live drumming,the songs, the interpretation,the costumes,the special effect curtains,the acrobats ,the stilts. I liked how the background changes from being in the mountains/rain forest , to looking up at the night sky, and the feeling of really being under water with the swimming fish And the drummers were just incredible. After the show, we got to stay for an question and answer segment and I liked learning about the backstage production part. I want to say that social Lia who I meet at a previous tweetup was one of the main performers,she has such a great voice! The whole cast was in its element. AUTHENTIC,ENERGETIC,HEARTFELT
Thanks to those on twitter that took a chance to meet me and see who I am and enjoyed the show as much as me!
Until the next mauitweetup.............................follow me
