The Thanksgiving Play

Good intentions collide with absurd assumptions in this wickedly funny satire. A troupe of terminally woke teaching artists scrambles to create a pageant that somehow manages to celebrate both Turkey Day and Native American Heritage Month. How to be historically accurate and offend no one may be an impossible task, but these four bravely bumble through the challenge. This sly comedy penned by Lakota playwright Larissa FastHorse serves up a delicious roast of modern society.
