About this event
Good intentions collide with absurd assumptions in Larissa FastHorse’s wickedly funny satire, as 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.
The Thanksgiving Play premiered off-Broadway at Playwrights Horizons in New York City on October 12, 2018.
Performances by Abe Daniels, Ann Van Haney, Kevin Hayles, Kurt Schauppner, and Katherine Wehler.
Directed by Miri Hunter.
A Thought Theatre production and program of the NEA Big Read Morongo Basin.
