The Thanksgiving Play


  • Verge Theater 111 South Grand Ave., 107 C Bozeman, MT 59715 United States (map)

This wickedly funny satire takes a sharp look at cultural representation, performative activism, and what happens when good intentions go hilariously wrong.

 In The Thanksgiving Play, a group of “woke” teaching artists attempt to create a politically correct Thanksgiving pageant for their students, leading to a comedic collision of art, education, and identity. Praised for its sharp wit and timely social commentary, the play challenges audiences to laugh while reflecting on the complexities of modern culture.
