Twelve Dreams is a 1981 play by James Lapine that was inspired by a case study contained in Carl Jung's 1964 book Man and His Symbols. The case concerns a 10-year-old girl who gave her father, a psychiatrist, an unusual Christmas present — a handwritten booklet describing twelve dreams that she had had when she was eight years old. The play was first performed as a work-in-progress in 1978. A more complete version was performed in 1981–1982, and it was revived in 1995.
