LAHAINA — Theatre Theatre Maui (TTM) wrapped up its 29th summer season of youth theatre culminating in digital productions of “The Trial of Goldilocks,” “Alice in Wonderland” and other shows, thanks to the phenomenally creative team of Kristi Scott, Francis Taua, Felicia Chernicki-Wulf, MaryBeth Chin, Heidi Turner, Annabehl Sinclair, Aida Rose, Chloe Chin and Kathleen Schulz.

Much support was provided by volunteers Luis Barreno, Rebecca Tinkler, MaryBeth Chin and Rory Delaney, along with Student Interns Makani Aniban, Gianna Bauchman, Moses Flores, Isabelle Perchard, Naara Tinkler and Mia Utrillo.

Heartfelt thanks for the generosity extended to TTM by this summer’s venue provider, Maui Preparatory Academy, as well as T-Shirt Sponsor Rob Shelton with Island Sotheby’s International Realty.

Very special mahalos to our community of parents and their keiki for their trust in TTM (especially during these unprecedented times) and to the many volunteers, donors, sponsors and grantors who provide invaluable support to make these productions possible: the County of Maui’s Office of Economic Development, Lahaina Music, Lahaina News, Maui Family Magazine, Maui Ku’ia Estate Chocolate, Maui News, MauiTime Weekly, Maui Visitor Industry Charity Walk, Jen Mather, Alexa Hanohano, Penny Wakida, Deanna Pennington, Somerville-Ollson Charitable Trust, Ralph Pais & Gayl Huston, Rob & Louisa Shelton, Jurg Munch, Beverly DeLorenzo, and Lisa D Hawks & Debbie Brooks.

Thanks also to Lahaina Intermediate School, where TTM staged their carwash/bake sale in July, and all who supported the fundraiser.

The proceeds from TTM’s car wash and bake sale are part of the 42nd annual Maui County Charity Walk. For more information, and to register and/or donate, text MAUI305 to 71777.

During the month of September, TTM’s banner will be displayed at Lahaina Foodland for Foodland’s annual “Give Aloha” fundraising campaign. TTM’s number is 78402; present your Maika’i card at checkout and let the cashier know how much you want to contribute to TTM. Any amount is appreciated!

In addition to Give Aloha, TTM is also one of the nonprofit beneficiaries of Maui Ku’ia Estate Chocolate’s “Laulima Program.” Visit www.mauichocolate.com and find the TTM page. Participating non-profits receive 40 percent of the proceeds from each sale contributed back to them. This is another way to show your support through a local business.
