Published Reviews

"This ambitious new play ... touches upon issues of race, gender and the quicksilver nature of identity in an epic treatment of turn-of-the-century American history... The sweep of the play ... has the reach of greatness in it. A vast tapestry of romance, politics and personal sorrow, Ghost Dance will not soon be forgotten."
