Academy Award nominee and Tony Award-winner John Lithgow (Dirty Rotten Scoundrels, Shrek, 3rd Rock from the Sun) takes the title role in Arthur Wing Pinero's uproarious Victorian farce, directed by Olivier Award-winner Timothy Sheader (Crazy for You and Into the Woods, Regent's Park Open Air Theatre, London).

In a similar vein to The National Theatre's smash-hit classic comedies, She Stoops to Conquer and London Assurance, The Magistrate is sure to have audiences doubled up with laughter. When amiable magistrate Posket (John Lithgow) marries Agatha (Olivier Award-winner Nancy Carroll, After the Dance), little does he realise she's dropped five years from her age - and her son's. When her deception looks set to be revealed, it sparks a series of hilarious indignities and outrageous mishaps.

Hawai'ian Music Hall Of Fame Honorees.

Robert and Roland - The Brothers Cazimero - are consummate performers who have made their indelible imprint on the face of contemporary Hawai'ian music. Their musical talent, incredible showmanship and infectious humor have placed them in a league of their own, untouched by any other performer in the history of Hawai'ian music.

The early 1970s were a remarkable time as the Hawa'iian culture and music began an amazing resurgence in Hawai'i. Leading the way down this amazing new path were The Brothers Cazimero, carrying a torch that sparked a new interest in music performed in the Hawai'ian language with a contemporary sound that has never been duplicated.

Brothers Cazimero are remarkable entertainers on stage who achieve a full-bodied sound that emanates from two traditional instruments, the acoustic bass and a twelve-string guitar. Their music has been celebrated around the world and has been licensed for use in film, television and commercial projects, and was featured in the hit movie Forgetting Sarah Marshall.
