Bill Dana pivots to Hawaii for a new act after Jose Jiminez
In Honolulu Bill Dana markets a brand new old traditional Hawaiian revue with Hawaiian music and ecology themes. He says Jose Jiminez is dead and his new show centers on Dana as a performer and producer while maintaining the Latino character as a dialect joke. Dana, 46, builds a Maui home and plans to keep busy in show business with a multi-hat role in creation and performance.
