The Great Leap by Lauren Yee, Directed by Leslie Ishii

The Thanksgiving Play
By Larissa FastHorse

This Broadway comedy by previous Perseverance Theatre collaborator and 2020 MacArthur Fellow playwright Larissa FastHorse (Sicangu Lakota Nation) is the wacky story of wokeness and centers around a group of four well-meaning but culturally insensitive white theater artists who attempt to create a politically correct elementary school play about the first Thanksgiving while struggling with their own biases and the lack of Native representation.
