Friends of the Queen Theater is a community-based campaign to build support for our vision of a venue for live theater, films, concerts and events. Join us in returning this grand theater to her rightful place in Kaimuki.

In 2008 we formed the Friends of Queen Theater and began a community-based campaign to build support for our vision of a venue for live theater, films, concerts and events. The group has provided a magnet for many who have ideas for her and have long yearned to see the building restored. Since our beginning, the organization formed their non-profit status and is applying for the Queen Theater's addition to the State Historic Register.
