Why see Fake It Until You Make It?
A Little Bit Of Belief Goes A Long Way
Exciting times are upon us as the world premiere of Larissa FastHorse's new play, Fake It Until You Make It is heading to the Mark Taper Forum this January. Fasthorse, the multi-award-winning and first-known female Native American Broadway playwright, is breaking more firsts as the first Native American writer to stage a play at the LA-based theater. Working together with director Michael John Garcs, Fake It Until You Make It is a thought-provoking comedy taking a bold look at identity and the Native American experience.
FastHorse is a member of the Sicangu Lakota Nation and has a huge wealth of experience, not limited to the theater world. She was a ballet dancer and choreographer, a United Nations delegate, and has worked for Universal Pictures and Paramount. She is also the Vice Chairman of the not-for-profit Off-Broadway theatre Playwrights Horizons. Additionally, her work has been performed by Hollywood superstar and all-around nice guy Keanu Reeves.
