Celebrate our 15th year Anniversary!

We thrilled to announce it is our 15th year anniversary. We would like to raise $15,000 to commemorate this milestone and celebrate our Native-led, Native-serving theatre. Thank you for your support today to help us reach that goal. We are excited to showcase our performances, host camps, and support Native artists. We invite you to come check out our shows! All our welcome. 

Based in the Twin Cities, New Native Theatre is a new way of looking at, thinking about, and staging Native American stories. Created in 2009 by playwright, Rhiana Yazzie, NNT produces, commissions, and devises authentic Native American stories for the stage which means NNT’s artists are intricately connected to the concerns and voices of their communities. NNT’s plays are shorthand meant to be played for its most vital audiences, Native people, because when specific stories are made for Native community itself, they become undeniably powerful for the broader community too, no translations required.
