O Pioneers is a musical based on the novel by Willa Cathers, adapted by Robert Sickinger. The songs "Summer Days", "Possibilities", "Just Like a Woman", "The Letter", "Second Chances", "Beautiful Dream" and "Never Fear" have music and lyrics by Mel Atkey.

"As Marie and Emil, Lisa Neubauer and Matthew Morse were an extreemly attractive and compelling couple, and made beautiful music of their duets, "Summer Days" and "Beautiful Dream"...The vitality of [Robert] Sickinger's direction, the lush melodies and the verve of the large cast made this an engrossing, touching show." -- Backstage (New York)
