Each year the festival will develop work for the stage by Native artists from all over Turtle Island, educate the next generation of Native storytellers and help reclaim the narrative for Native stories.

Join us for a staged reading of the new play Embers Borne West. It’s a time-shifting tale about intergenerational resilience and identity, as two very different generations of a Cherokee family move to Los Angeles, in 1927 and in the present day. Stay after the show to participate in the audience discussion with the writer – a crucial part of developing new work!

First Storyteller’s Festival: Pink Man or the Only Indian in the Room

Dairy Arts Center 2590 Walnut St, Boulder

Pink Man: or The Only Indian in the Room follows a young Ojibwe on a semi-autobiographical, semi-realistic journey of self-discovery as he battles tradition, stereotypes, and himself. Mixed-blood and white-presenting, Pink Man deals with internal and external struggles over identity and heritage, always worried about how others see him.
