On the Rez: A Fiasco Playset

Author Summary: This playset for Fiasco takes place on the Pine Ridge Indian Reservation, one of the poorest places in all of the United States. The Oglala Lakota have lived around here for centuries; the infamous Wounded Knee massacre occurred right here on the rez. 80% unemployment, an average income under $10,000 a year, Prohibition-style laws against possession of alcohol, and a distant legal system reluctant to prosecute crimes--Pine Ridge is ripe territory for a game of violence and desperation.
