HOT's General and Artistic Director, Henry Akina, is

and other friends and supporters who attended Otello.

Former state legislator from Mililani Sam Lee poses
for a snapshot during intermission of Verdi's Otello.
Behind him are HOT mugs, T-shirts, and other opera
memorabilia for sale in the lobby.

Local opera expert Jim Becker has his binocs ready for
the rest of Otello. Next to him are Jim Moffitt whose
bass clarinet tones could be heard rising from the
pit, and Mazie Hirono, former lieutenant governor and
opera fan.
Alex Santiago, chair of the Democratic party of
Hawai'i, talks with Jim Moffitt outside the lobby of
Blaisdell Concert Hall on the Sunday afternoon
performance of Otello.
Jim Decker, Eric Mathis, and Mike Szabo make up the
trombone section of the Honolulu Symphony. Former
Symphony trombonist, Mike Becker, joins the section
for Otello, as Verdi's score calls for large
orchestra. Here at intermission the players are not
rehearsing - rather they are reading through some
non-Verdi charts just for kicks.
