The more I think about it the more I think the way they cast here was more sound than casting a Native American. Neverland isn't North America. Tiger Lily and her tribe are not part of any real nation but are ugly racist stereotypes of Native Americans. This isn't a case of a non-Native American playing a specific person from a specific nation. Like an English actress playing Pocahontas. This is a case of an actress playing a fantasy character on a fantasy island that was drawn to be a racist caricature.

I'd rather they go with a more novel approach like they did in the movie with a multi-ethnic tribe, yes, the tribe is made of not just white people but of actors of multiple ethnic backgrounds than with having to make up a tribe out of whole cloth and go with outdated stereotypes.

This.

It may not be meant to be "real", but it is still a freaking racist stereotype. And yes, they are deliberately acting as Native Americans, not a fantasy made up group of people who coincidentally seem like Native Americans. Hell, the musical even uses the slur "redskins".
