Directed by Dr. Nathan Stith

Larissa FastHorse's The Thanksgiving Play, which premiered on Broadway in 2023, is a hilarious satire of white American liberalism.  A group of intensely PC teaching artists attempt to devise a Thanksgiving-themed play which is historically accurate, honors Native American Heritage Month, and is appropriate for elementary school students.  Larissa FastHorse is the first known female Native American playwright to have a play produced on Broadway and she expertly skewers performative wokeness and satirizes American mythmaking in a play that will give us all something to be thankful about.

The Thanksgiving Play performs in the Attic Theatre, with 60 seats available per show. Performances are Fri/Sat at 8 pm, Wed/Thu at 7 pm, and Sunday at 2:30 pm. Seating will be first come, first served. Reservations will not be needed for this production.
