About the Event
There are many stereotypes that Native Americans—living and dead—have had to contend with. One of the most pervasive in film, history and wooden statues is the stoic, wise leader. He never smiles. He rarely speaks. He is always a he. But we know better, and for Native Voices 14th Annual Short Play Festival, you will too!
This year, seven Native playwrights delve into this image of stoicism to showcase the wit and empathy lurking behind our stoic facades. Join us for an afternoon of staged readings where these plays will make us laugh, teach us a lesson and show us stoicism as we have never seen it before.
Each play will be entered to win the Thomas Studie Gadugi Audience Prize of $500 and the Von Marie Atchley Excellence in Playwriting Award of $1,000!
