Hawai‘i’s first Olympic gold medalist and the father of modern surfing\, Duke Kahanamoku is unquestionably one of the most important and beloved figures in Hawaiian history. Duke lived through Hawaiʻi’s transition from an independent Nation to a U.S territory and on to statehood. In many ways his extraordinary life served as a guiding light for Hawaiʻi’s people in their struggle to find identity in a changing world. Known for his humility\, kindness and love of community Duke’s fame and renown made him a role model and source of inspiration for all.\nDuke premiered in October 2015 at Honolulu Theatre for Youth\, where it ran for five weeks with more than 10\,000 people attending the show. The play’s development coincided with the Bernice Pauahi Bishop Museum’s landmark exhibition commemorating the 125th anniversary of Duke’s birth. In 2016\, Moses Goods brought Duke to Pregones Theater in The Bronx\, New York\, and to Yale University\, hosted by the Yale Indigenous Performing Arts Program.\n100% of net proceeds from the “Duke” 2026 Summer Tour to benefit INAMONA\, a Hawaiʻi nonprofit founded by Moses Goods and dedicated to preserving Native Hawaiian stories by providing resources in film\, storytelling and theatrical arts to the community.\n  \n			\n				\n				\n				\n				\n				About the Artist\nMoses Goods\nIn a career spanning 30 years\, Moses Goods has become one of Hawaiʻi’s most prominent actors on both screen and stage.
