The Frybread Queen reading at La Jolla Playhouse and the Autry National Center

Saturday, June 20, 1:00 p.m., Mandell Weiss Forum Studio, La Jolla Playhouse
Saturday, June 27, 1:00 p.m., Wells Fargo Theater, Autry National Center

The Frybread Queen by Carolyn Dunn (Muskogee Creek, Seminole, Cherokee)
Directed by Scott Horstein
Dramaturgy by Robert Caisley

Three generations of Indian women come together for the funeral of a beloved son. The collision
of personalities forces them to confront long-simmering tensions that threaten to tear them apart.

This quietly poetic drama has all the haunting qualities of a tragicomedy—Navajo
style! A reception follows the reading and discussion.
