Smart, sharp, and hilariously on point, The Thanksgiving Play by Larissa FastHorse is a biting satire that takes aim at performative activism, cultural appropriation, and the pitfalls of “woke” theater-making. When a group of well-meaning white educators attempts to devise a politically correct Thanksgiving play for their school, chaos—and comedy—ensues. As their efforts spiral out of control, the play exposes the absurdities of trying to do the right thing without truly understanding the story. Fast-paced and thought-provoking, The Thanksgiving Play is a laugh-out-loud comedy that holds a mirror up to our good intentions—and asks us to look a little deeper.
