History
Lanai's only theater was commissioned in 1926 by James Dole to entertain the plantation workers and families that resided on the island. For more than 70 years, it served as a gathering place where the community enjoyed hundreds of films, live plays and musical performances. The theater closed its doors in the 1990s and remained a landmark of Lanai's history until 2015 when it was fully restored and reopened under the name Hale Keaka (theater in Hawaiian).
