2025 Season

Get ready for a season of laughter, heart, and unforgettable stories at Mana Little Theatre! Our 2025 lineup is packed with something for everyone, and we can’t wait to share it with you.

Kicking things off is 21 Minutes, a hilariously dark apocalyptic comedy. Next, we’re proud to present Wāhine Auaha, a dazzling showcase of one-act plays written by and starring our very own local female writers and comedians. Then, we bring you Roger Hall’s classic comedy Easy Money, a side-splitting tale of greed, luck, and the lengths people will go to for a quick buck. And finally, we close the season with a powerful and poignant production that we can’t quite name yet (but trust us, it’s a story you know). This timeless tale of courage and resilience will move and inspire audiences of all ages.

Stay tuned for updates!
