About This Show

Melting Pot Theatre Company presents the world premiere of Flight, a new play by Garth Wingfield starring Gregg Edelman, Kerry O’Malley, Brian D’Arcy James, Adam Heller, Rex Young, and Victoria Mack. Nick Corley directs.

This drama follows famed American aviator Charles Lindbergh during fourteen critical years in his life: from his historic flight to Paris, to the kidnapping of his son, to his obsession with science, to his sudden decision to move to Europe and the anti-Semitic remarks he made at the outbreak of World War II. The play is a deconstruction of an American icon and an exploration of the effects the media and fame have on our celebrities.
