The Naa Kahida Theater was established in 1986 by the Sealaska Heritage Institute with support from the Sealaska Corporation, a Native owned corporation. With participation of clan groups, the theater produced dramatic presentations of traditional Southeast Alaska Native legends. The Naa Kahida Theater traveled throughout Alaska, the Pacific Northwest, and to various locations in Canada and the United States. One of their main performances included "Fires on the Water; a Dramatic Anthology of Tlingit Legend". In the mid-1990s, due to funding difficulties, the Naa Kahida Theater productions were stopped.
