• Indigenous Peoples' Day Panel: Native Women Leading

    Featuring Lofanitani Aisea, Jeanette Harrison, Murielle Borst-Tarrant, Moderated by Amber Ball (Dakubetede, Shasta, Modoc, Klamath)

    For Indigenous Peoples' Day, In the Margin Theatre hosted conversation with Lofanitani Aisea (Black, Tongan, Modoc, Klamath, Tahlequah) artist-activist-actor, Jeanette Harrison (Onondaga Descent) co-founder of AlterTheater, and Murielle Borst-Tarrant (Kuna, Rappahannock) artistic director of Safe Harbors NYC.

    In this conversation we discuss artistic leadership, practices, and methodology from an Indigenous perspective. It is our goal to highlight and amplify the work these three Native women continue to contribute to the arts world.

    This is the first livestreamed event on HowlRound TV for In the Margin Theatre's The New American Theatre Festival. The other livestreams are: Power in Theatre Coalition Building (Wednesday 20 October), and Adaptation and New Creation (Thursday 21 October).
