City Lights Theater Company presents “The Thanksgiving Play,” about 4 teachers trying to create a holiday pageant that doesn’t offend anyone.
The four white artists tasked with putting on a culturally sensitive theatrical masterpiece for kids that honors both Native Americans and the thorny holiday of Thanksgiving seem to be off to a rip-roaring start.
These lily-white theater people are feeling frisky about their 45-minute opus. Artistic integrity must not be compromised — accuracy and truth, however messy, must be reckoned with. Yet, there are a whole lot of scenes on the horizon that showcase the normal and happy Thanksgiving holiday in November that everyone knows and loves. Can’t have too much bummer on our proverbial plates. There are kids in the audience, after all.
Getting paid for any gig is the dream of new actor Caden , an elementary school teacher who is madly in love with the work of Jaxton and the direction of Logan. This gig is a dream job for Caden, the admiration for his new collaborators cemented by watching Jaxton in the “Let’s Learn!” series, a show he saw at another elementary school, taking a personal day off to do so.
