PlayMakers Repertory Company’s fall season helps settle a timely debate. George Balanchine may be best known for his forward-thinking, often tutu-less ballets that forged a new style of American ballet. That’s the idea behind UNC’s Process Series, which stages professional presentations of works in progress.

Written by Native American playwright Larissa FastHorse and fresh off a 2023 Broadway run, The Thanksgiving Play pokes fun at performative wokeness by following a few well-intentioned teachers as they try to create a Thanksgiving play of their own.
