Good intentions collide with absurd assumptions in MAT’s THE THANKSGIVING PLAY
Mariposa Arts Theatre is thrilled to bring our February 2025 production of THE THANKSGIVING
PLAY to the Orillia Opera House. This contemporary play is the creative brainchild of Larissa
FastHorse, the first known female Native American playwright to be produced on Broadway.
Since its Broadway debut in 2023, THE THANKSGIVING PLAY is now one of the top 10 most
produced plays across North America, and premiered in Canada with Mirvish Productions in
Toronto this past fall.

The show follows four well-meaning but misguided white theatre and education professionals as
they set out to create a Thanksgiving pageant for an elementary school that somehow manages
to succinctly summarize, and celebrate, the first Thanksgiving and Native American Heritage
Month— without ruffling any feathers. This sharp comedy spotlights the contradictions of “woke”
culture, dishing up the hypocrisies of North America and performative activism with a generous
side of satire.
