A musical comedy that floats from the headlines! Be one of the first to love the funny, amazing story of Jerry Gorman, who decides he needs to FlY. He tires of his cookie-cutter neighborhood, his Wal-mart smiley job, and hitches weather balloons to hsi lawnchair, floating 16,000 feet to startle macho airline pilot Big Jack! Jerry's mama tries to keep him earthbound, but girlfriend Gracie says GO! FOLLOW YOUR DREAMS! Stunning New York newcomer Ashley Pankow brings her amazing pop-star belt voice to the Mainstage as Gracie, helping Daniel Black as Jerry FLY OVER the airlines' pompous pilot, Big Jack! Nathanial Hackmann, world-class young San Francisco Opera baritone, as Jack tries to get the government - FFA, NASA, and more! - to keep Jerry DOWN where meddling mama (Carol Irvin) wants him. But Jerry and Gracie's spirits soar (and so will yours!) with this show's glorious music, as he encounters air-pioneer spirits Lucky Lindy in his Spirit of St. Louis (Jason Ross!), Amelia Earhart (Nicole Begue, forever in flight) and visionary, VERY Italiano Leonardo DaVinci, himself.
