The Great Race: The Story of the Chinese Zodiac @ The Alden
Join Po Po and Kung Kung in celebrating Chinese New Year with their grandkids by making dumplings and sharing the story of The Great Race— a beloved tale in Chinese folklore and the origin story of the Chinese Zodiac.
When the Jade Emperor needs a way to tell time, he decrees that there will be a Great Race, and the first 12 animals to cross the river will have a year named after them. This show mixes theatrical storytelling with traditional Chinese music, Jingju, and martial arts to see how each animal earned a place in the Chinese Zodiac.
Honolulu Theatre for Youth brings The Great Race to The Alden Theatre stage on February 28, 2026.
