78th Season
78th Season
Langhorne Players is excited to present the final production of our 2025 season: The Thanksgiving Play by Larissa FastHorse!
Things get awkward when the local school board commissions three teachers to devise a culturally sensitive Thanksgiving show. They’ve secured grant money and a professional LA actress to play the American Indian lead, but everything comes crashing down when her actual heritage is discovered. Larissa FastHorse’s wickedly funny satire spotlights the absurd nature of the politically correct, lampooning the virtue signaling of “enlightened white allies” and the verbal gymnastics employed in modern progressive thinking. “The familiar, whitewashed story of Pilgrims and Native Americans chowing down together gets a delicious roasting from expert farceurs.” – The New York Times
Performances run Oct. 17–Nov. 2, Thursdays through Sundays, at the Spring Garden Mill. The Oct. 17 performance will be followed by our Opening Night Reception, and the Oct. 26 performance will be followed by a talkback with the cast and crew.
