It's been 35 years since the original Baywatch TV series premiered on NBC in the 1989-1990 season. One year later, it was syndicated and became one of the most popular TV shows on the planet. The show's original cast included David Hasselhoff, who stayed with the series through its entire run. During that time, he was joined by other actors, including (but not limited to) Pamela Anderson, Alexandra Paul, and Jason Simmon. At the time, Simmons, who is gay, was in the closet.

Moses Goods’ “superhero origin story” Lovey Lee finally comes back home to Kumu Kahua Theatre Four years after its digital premier over Zoom in 2020. Based on the true story of māhū icon Kealoha “Lovey Lee” Kelekolio, the show paints an intricate, beautiful, and often heartbreaking portrait of queer Hawaiian existence in the 1970s, straddling the very different worlds of Lovey’s one hānau and San Fransisco. As with much of homegrown hana keaka, the themes of “family” and “home” are wrapped up in the journey toward Lovey’s identity and ultimate truth, set against a backdrop of sex, drugs, disco, and the historic voyage of the Hōkūle’a.
