Synopsis: | Flight is a new play about two ambitious aviatrixes/actresses, who struggle to assemble a Bleriot XI monoplane to fly in a long distance competition from Paris to Moscow in an airplane hangar in a Parisian suburb. Actresses by profession, the women have taken a short break from performing in Chekhov's The Seagull to visit their friend, mentor, and former production manager, Jean Luc, because he has promised them resources that will enable them to fly; resources, it turns out, that they must literally put together. Gerard, a young actor in the theatre company, has accompanied the women on their weekend adventure. The two women are also the subjects of a documentary which is being made by a woman filmmaker, Alisse (Robyn Hunt) as they work to prepare the plane. At a time when society considers flying a masculine endeavor and acting an unfavorable profession for a woman, will they succeed? Flight is the third in a trilogy of full-length productions by Ms. Hunt and Mr. Pearson inspired by Anton Chekhov's plays that integrate art, history, and science with powerful, physically demanding performance. | |||||
