#DanaHPlay
Kirk Douglas Theatre

Critic’s Choice!

This fascinating 75-minute play is a sly referendum on how we process a survivor’s story. Deirdre O’Connell is one of the underrecognized great talents in the American theater.

A gripping world premiere. Blurs the lines between documentary and drama.

World Premiere

Dana (Deirdre O’Connell) was a psych ward chaplain. Jim was a patient, an ex-convict who told her he was searching for redemption. Dana H. recounts the harrowing true story of the five months Dana was held captive—trapped in a series of Florida motels, disoriented, terrified, and with her life in Jim's hands. Told in Dana's own words and reconstructed for the stage by her son, award-winning playwright Lucas Hnath (A Doll’s House, Part 2, The Christians), this innovative work of theatre shatters the boundaries of the form and of our understanding of good and evil.

Produced in association with Goodman Theatre

Lucas Hnath is a rockstar playwright.
