Early Native American culture was rich with ceremonies, rituals and storytelling.[1] The stories that inspire Native American theatre have been around for hundreds of years, but did not gain formal recognition by colonial America.[1] This lack of recognition lasted until the 1930s when Lynn Riggs, a playwright of Cherokee descent, brought Native Theatre into the spotlight through the Six Nations Reserve Forest Theatre in Ontario. Through these events, Native Theatre has been introduced to mainstream society and contemporary Native American Theater was born.[1] Indigenous American cultures have been a major aspect of Chicano drama.[2]
