چکیده	We discuss Geiogamah’s dramatic depiction of the evolving train of thought within the indigenous society through a joined study of his Body Indian, Foghorn, and 49—three full-length, independent works. Application of cognitive poetics strategies highlights the potential within these plays to enlighten the immediate past and contemporary indigenous society and illustrates how storytelling functions as a resuscitating tool within indigenous communities. If read together as a trilogy, these plays reveal Geiogamah’s artistic maneuvers: having depicted the historical trauma which has afflicted the contemporary indigenous society through the textual actual world of Body Indian, he exposes the long-established ideologies at work for Indigenous peoples’ subjugation through spatio-temporal re-locations and ‘conceptual blends’ in Foghorn and, finally, puts forward a sketch of the ideal indigenous possible world in 49.
