Did you miss our 15th Annual Short Play Festival but still want to see the plays that were featured this year? The filmed performance of this year’s festival To Indigeneity and Beyond! will be available to watch for ONE WEEK ONLY and features 8 short plays! 

For far too long, when most people thought of Native Americans, they often conjured up outdated images of exotic figures from history, adorned in leather and feathers, trapped behind museum glass. Few see a beautifully vibrant culture that thrives today. For our 15th Annual Short Play Festival, we asked Native playwrights to boldly go where few have imagined Native people before: the future! What captivating tales have they woven? Come witness a future filled with hope, the delightfully absurd, and the downright terrifying. Perhaps we will be able to laugh at our future selves, recognize our humanity, and possibly even course correct to create a better future. 

Video will be available to view on this webpage, as well as the Native Voices YouTube account, from June 3rd-10th, 2025. To be notified when the video is up, make sure to subscribe to the Autry’s email list.
