The group originated in Waialua, Hawaii in 1986. Entertaining for many occassions, the group participated in various Christmas craft fairs, The Fourth of July celebrations, and local church bazaars. The dancers were also known as the World Pacific Dancers in the 1988 "Wave of the Future" World Pacific Wrestling Show.
In 1989, Isitolo and Evelyn Oloa moved to Pittsburgh, PA to become choreographers and cast members of "Hawaii in Pittsburgh" located in Pittsburgh, PA. The show brought in thousands of people from the eastern United States as well as Canada, bringing memories of the Polynesian islands to many. In 1996, the home base for "Hawaii in Pittsburgh" was sold and the cast members continued entertaining for river boat shows, dinner theatres and private parties.
In 1998, Isitolo and Evelyn Oloa moved to Orlando, FL. With a whole new group, they continue what they had started in Hawaii.
It's Official! 'Polynesian Fire' is a success!
'Polynesian Fire' is seen as "part travelogue, part lounge act, part daredevil show, but all exotic...one of the most unique shows La Comedia Dinner Theatre has ever staged." - Middletown Journal
