Our season starts with “New Works, New Voices” where we produce a staged workshop or reading of either a commission of a new play to be developed with the playwright specifically for our campus or seek new work from professional playwrights.

This year, the work will be a devised production created in collaboration with students and faculty.

The Thanksgiving Play

The Thanksgiving Play

Written by Larissa FastHorse

Wednesday-Saturday, November 12-15 @ 7:30 PM
Sunday, November 16 @ 2:00 PM
Mago Hunt Theater

Four well-meaning theatre people are tasked with the creation of a Thanksgiving pageant for children that won’t ruffle any feathers. What could possibly go wrong? Playwright and MacArthur Fellow Larissa FastHorse, (the first female Indigenous playwright on Broadway!) guides us through a farcical roast of the politics of entertainment and political correctness alike. The Thanksgiving Play, which premiered in Portland at Artists Repertory Theater in 2018, puts the American origin story itself in the comedy-crosshairs.
