Fort Knox, Kentucky
On February 25th, the Fort Knox community and MWR welcomed one of the longest-running off-Broadway productions to Fort Knox. A large crowd came out to the Wayburn Theater to enjoy this amazing and award winning show.
The play uplifted and inspired the audience as the narrative documented the lives of prospective aviator candidates as they sought to overcome collective struggle to debunk the myths regarding their ability, intelligence, patriotism, and ultimate dreams of an inclusive society. The production movingly illustrated how the men united in brotherhood to achieve a communal vision.
Heralded as uplifting and inspirational by the New York Times, Black Angels Over Tuskegee goes beyond the traditional accounts of the Tuskegee Airmen and delves into the story of men who exhibited the courage to excel despite having the odds stacked against them.
