PRODUCTION HISTORY
 Dakota
Sky (originally titled The Fifth Season)
was developed in part by a 1994 New American Works Grant
from the National Endowment for the Arts. It premiered
at Olney Theatre in 1996, directed by Jim Petosa, and
was the recipient of a Helen Hayes Nomination for best
actress (Anita Hollander). It was awarded the 1996 Jane
Chambers Playwriting Award (the first musical in the
award's 13 year history to be so honored), and has been
showcased by the Dramatist Guild in New York City. Its
most recent production was at Texas Woman's University
under the direction of Charles E. Harrill.
"Among the show's assets is its highly
American subject matter; not just in terms of history,
but also the quintessentially American theme of reinventing
yourself" - The Baltimore Sun
