The Thanksgiving Play

by Larissa FastHorse

This play won Outstanding Debut Performance from Theatre World with its Broadway premiere in 2023 and we’re thrilled to bring it to Helena. We hope thoughts of it will enliven your Thanksgiving this fall.

Our production is directed by Haley McKnight and features a lively and hilarious cast.

This comic story features a troupe of white theatremakers attempting to devise a “polictically correct” play on the origins of Thanksgiving. Native author Larissa FastHorse wants to give up permission to laugh at the ways we tell our stories, while reminding us that the stories really do matter.
