Second Stage Theater has announced the cast for its upcoming production of Larissa FastHorse’s play, THE THANKSGIVING PLAY: Emmy Award-nominee D’Arcy Carden (“The Good Place,” “A League of Their Own”), Two-time Tony Award-winner Katie Finneran (Noises Off; Promises, Promises), Scott Foley (“Scandal,” “The Unit”), and Two-time Emmy Award-nominee Chris Sullivan (“This Is Us,” Hadestown).

MacArthur Genius Larissa FastHorse’s shocking satire flips the bird on one of America's most prolific myths. THE THANKSGIVING PLAY arrives on Broadway in a brutally funny and raw new production directed by Tony Award-winner Rachel Chavkin (Hadestown, Great Comet). When a troupe of really, really well-meaning theater artists attempt to put on a culturally sensitive Thanksgiving school pageant, things get messy. Hilarious and poignant, this delicious play skewers everything right, wrong, and woke in America. The creative team for THE THANKSGIVING PLAY includes scenic design by Riccardo Hernandez, costume design by Lux Haac, lighting design by Jeanette Oui-Suk Yew, sound design by Mikaal Sulaiman, and video/projection design by David Bengali. Casting is by Telsey + Co.
Tickets for THE THANKSGIVING PLAY are currently available by phone at 212-541-4516 and at 2ST.com. A limited number of $30 tickets are available to people aged 30 and under with valid ID. THE THANKSGIVING PLAY is supported in part by the National Endowment for the Arts.
