Description:
Join the East/West Players as they present a production of Patsy by Alison Minami and directed by John Miyasaki.
Kailani is an 18-year-old senior and star athlete at Maui High School. While anxiously waiting to find out if she's been accepted into her dream school, Patsy Mink, the first Asian-American congresswoman and former valedictorian of Maui High School, appears before her. As Patsy walks Kailani through the many trials and tribulations she faced throughout her political career and life, Kailani realizes that no matter how many setbacks she encounters, she can succeed as long as she perseveres.
