Pro Arts has a wonderful remodeled theater with new comfortable seats, a new larger stage, new carpeting, paint and a new sound system, all that create a relaxing setting to enjoy live theater and musical events that engage the audience. Pro Arts follows the country covid protocols which has provided a safer way to enjoy the theater with comfort. Pro Arts has become very innovative and creative in expanding musical and theatrical opportunities that showcase and support community talent. Pro Arts theater has been in Kihei for many years, and continues to get better and better.

We went to a concert here. Was very impressedhow they have things organized to help you feel safe. Had to show Vax cards and id to enter, you were to wear your masks unless eating and saw e eryone complied with this requirement. They have 75% capacity and seats were separated by number of people in your group we had 2 seats together spaced maybe 3' from another group. Then at the end they released you by rows. The sound system and lighting was excellent. Everyone working there was pleasant and helpful. It is easy to find I. The Azeka shopping center and lots of parking with good lightening

ProArts playhouse lives up to and epitomises it's name. "EVIL DEAD THE MUSICAL" was a fun filled campy romp that brought the audience to it's feet by the end after being covered in blood if you sat in the first two rows known as the splash zone! Go see this Halloween spectacular before it's too late!!!

I went to ProArts last night. To write this review I searched under "theatre" and nada about this which sucks. It's a small venue, cool place and good show. Actors and plot were legit and fun. Plus tons of restaurants near it so grab dinner and see a show. We don't get a lot of entertainment in Maui so take advantage and support the local arts scene. Good times. The show I saw was "Sleuth." Aloha

Make sure you check out ProArts for great quality theater!
We were at the Improv Comedy Show Saturday night and LOVED it. The venue is small and intimate. Great Kihei location in the Azeka Plaza so lots of parking and place to grab a bite to eat before the show. We had a lot of laughs and we also volunteered to come up on stage when they needed a married couple. We were thrilled!!! Who knew we were that funny. Such a fun Saturday evening and the cost is so reasonable. They also have regular stage and musical performances as well as workshops so be sure to check it out!

The ProArts theater is a small intimate theater experience. When looking for something to do, we stumbled on the Improvisation night in the Fall 2017. It was really a howl and fun for the whole audience. Unfortunately they only seem to perform once a month or so, but it is really worth scheduling a time to go. We returned to Maui in April, and the first thing we did was to check out what was playing at the ProArts (having come to Maui for more than 30 years - and thought we had done everything). We're scheduled to see the production of "You're a Good Man, Charlie Brown"

This venue is located in the Azeka Plaza Maikai. You'll find it next to Homemaid Cafe which is the only place in Kihei to get loco loco, kimchee, malasadas and corned beef hash in one spot - wow I seriously digress.
We came here for the Maui Comedy Series with our favorite Cool Hand Luke for a series of shows taped for the Akaku Network.
You'll find this place is really the essence of artists finding a space to collaborate and share their craft. I won't lie and say that this is like sitting at the MACC. But it is conducive to all the requirements of a great place to appreciate
