Early in her career, she worked in various capacities at the Winnipeg Fringe Festival and later with several Canadian theatre companies, including Agassiz Theatre in Winnipeg; Popular Theatre Alliance of Manitoba; Manitoba Theatre Centre; Nakai Theatre in Whitehorse, Yukon; Society of Yukon Artists of Native Ancestry; Eastern Front Theatre in Dartmouth, Nova Scotia; and Native Earth Performing Arts (NEPA) in Toronto, Ontario.
In 1990, Nolan's first play, Blade, premiered at the Winnipeg Fringe Festival, and it was remounted in subsequent years. She went on to write such acclaimed plays as Job's Wife and Video (both produced in 1992 and published in 1995); A Marginal Man (1994); Child (first produced in 1994); Annie Mae's Movement (1996); Ham and the Ram (2011); The Unplugging (directed by Nina Le Aquino in 2015, produced by NEPA and presented at Factory Theatre), for which Nolan won the Jessie Richardson Award for new script in 2013; the opera librettos Hilda Blake (1999) and Shanawdithit (2018), Tapestry Opera, Toronto, performed in 2019); and the radio play Owen. She has also adapted repertory classics by Aristophanes and Shakespeare. Her plays have been produced in theatres across Canada.
In 1996, Nolan was the first-ever writer-in-residence at Brandon University in Manitoba, where she wrote the first drafts of Annie Mae's Movement (later produced in 2001 by NEPA). She has since been writer-in-residence at other academic institutions such as Mount Royal University in Calgary, Alberta (2009); the University of Regina in Saskatchewan (2011); McGill University in Montréal, Quebec (2018, Department of English); and at cultural and artistic institutions including the National Arts Centre in Ottawa, Ontario (2007-08), and the Saskatoon Library in Saskatchewan (2011).
Nolan has also directed and ensured dramaturgy for many plays written by Indigenous playwrights, such as Philip Adams, Drew Hayden Taylor (Girl Who Loved Her Horses, Centre for Indigenous Theatre, Toronto, 2004), Marie Clements (The Unnatural and Accidental Women, NEPA, 2004; Tombs of the Vanishing Indian, NEPA, 2011), Melanie J.

She was also co-director of the 2017 dance opera Bearing, presented at Toronto's Luminato Festival. She has been President of the Indigenous Performing Arts Alliance, and has served on the boards of the Saskatchewan Arts Alliance and the Saskatchewan Association of Theatre Professionals.
