It seems the production grew over time and lasted at least into the 80s.
Which cannibalizing acts from defunct Polynesian floor shows.

An ad from the Pittsburgh Post Gazette from June 19, 1980:

with an all star cast from Hawaii
Pittsburgh's best Hawaiian Extravaganza
formerly booked at the Mauna Loa in Monroeville
for ? smashing years

Coming July 4th
"Hawaiian Odessy"
featuring song and dances from
India Japan China Arabia Europe Latin America Katmandu
Hawaii and Tahiti
Our newly designed ? Showroom the largest in Pittsburgh
Enlarged 300 seating

Yes, at one point there were two competing Polynesian shows in the eastern suburbs of Pittsburgh!
