An elementary school director is putting together a 45-minute Thanksgiving play. She first hires her boyfriend, a street performer who will work for free. Next, she hires a local teacher to be the history expert. Lastly, with the money from a Native American grant, she hires a professional actress from Los Angeles. All together they plan to devise the perfectly politically correct and racially appropriate play that won’t offend anyone. It all goes comically wrong.
Larissa Fasthorse has written a very funny play poking fun at woke culture. The characters truly take it to the extreme and the audience loves it.
Paloma Nozicka is so funny as the LA actress, who plays up her simplicity and beauty. Audrey Francis is great as the director, who is incredibly ambitious in her goals for this school play. Nate Santana is superb as the boyfriend who is equally ambitious and socially conscious to the extreme. Tim Hopper is solid as the teacher overjoyed to be contributing to this work of art.
