LET IT SNOW

The stage spectacular known as "Slava's Snowshow" returns to Hawai'i Theatre for a 15-show run from Wednesday through Aug. 23.

Created by Slava Polunin for London's Hackney Empire Theatre, the show, which combines theatrical clowning, slapstick comedy and dazzling visual trickery, has played more than 4,000 engagements in more than 30 countries. More than 1,000 performances at the Union Square Theatre in New York City were followed by a sold-out run last Christmas on Broadway at the Helen Hayes Theatre, and a Tony nomination for the special theatrical event award.

This will be the show's third Honolulu engagement.

Slava's Snowshow / Hawai'i Theatre / Aug. 12-23 / 7:30 p.m. Wednesdays and Thursdays, 8 p.m. Fridays and Saturdays, 7 p.m. Sundays, 1:30 p.m. matinees Saturdays and Sundays / $30-$80 / 528-0506, www.hawaiitheatre.com

BOXED IN LIKE CANDLES

REAL AMERICAN HEROES

The big-screen adaptation of the G.I. Joe Adventure Team action figures and animated television series hits theaters today. Will the cast be able to make us love them as much as we loved the original special operations team? We have to see it to believe it.
