THE THANKSGIVING PLAY
By Larissa FastHorse
OCTOBER 24-NOVEMBER 2, 2025
Single tickets on sale September 29
A group of well-meaning (but hilariously misguided) theater artists scramble to create a politically correct Thanksgiving pageant – without any Native Americans. In a brilliant send-up, this fast-paced play skewers performative activism, cultural cluelessness, and the pitfalls of “good intentions” with wit and bite. Smart, edgy, and uproariously funny, The Thanksgiving Play is a feast of laughs and a clever commentary on who gets to tell whose story. A sharp, satirical comedy that leaves you laughing— and thinking!
