Good intentions collide with absurd assumptions in this sharp-witted satire, as earnest but misguided elementary school teachers are tasked with staging a culturally sensitive Thanksgiving pageant – with no Native Americans involved!
*CHARACTERS
Logan: Female, white/white-passing, the high school drama teacher who’s always pushing the envelope in potentially inappropriate ways. Earnest about theatre and proving herself. Is producing this play as a desperate attempt to save her job.
Jaxton: Male, white/white-passing. Actor/yoga practitioner, Logan’s boyfriend. Politically correct to a fault, a big one. He’s the confident guy that everyone loves, but his overly logical PC thinking takes weird turns.
Alicia: Female, brunette white/white-passing, with looks that would’ve been cast as “ethnic” in 1950s movies. Without guile. Sexy and hot, but not all that bright.
Caden: Male, white/white-passing. The academic. Awkward elementary school history teacher with dramatic aspirations but no experience.
Performance dates: October 16 – November 2, 2025
Rehearsals begin September 4
