Larissa FastHorse is a member of the Sicangu Lakota Nation and the first known Native American female playwright to have her work produced on Broadway.
She wrote The Thanksgiving Play, a farcical look at four white people attempting to tell a culturally sensitive version of the Thanksgiving story to elementary students, which ran at the Hayes theater this past spring.
Larissa joins Heath to discuss her journey to becoming a playwright, the challenges with white allyship, and what it takes to make a theater more inclusive to all audiences. Her current show For the People, which she co-wrote with Ty Defoe, runs through November 12 at the Guthrie Theater in Minneapolis.
