You are purchasing a ticket for the staged reading of Feast for the Dead by Madeline Easley! This reading is a part of our 30th Anniversary Celebration and includes attendance to our 6 p.m. reception in the Plaza.


Play Synopsis: After the fall of the Indian Child Welfare Act in the days leading up to the zombie apocalypse, Kay was illegally adopted out of her Tribe by a wealthy family who then abandoned her when they escaped the carnage by sea. Seven years later, Kay is a thriving citizen of a Confederacy of Tribes who took over governance of Turtle Island after the settler government fell. Just as suddenly as they appeared, the zombies disintegrate, and the one percent return from the sea, ready to re-colonize. The only solution? Revive the centuries-old, Huron-Wendat tradition of holding a Feast for the Dead.


Please note: During the Festival of New Plays, we will have TWO different staged readings. Each reading is ticketed separately. If you’d like to attend both readings, please make sure to buy a ticket for each.
