Conquest of the Air

jurasco—The Cinematheque

From a childhood looking longingly towards the sky to an adulthood lovingly rebuilding a civilian aircraft by hand through multiple mishaps, writer and performer Wayne James’ love of flight is clear to see. Interwoven with the political and interpersonal dramas that animated the early history of manned flight, you can really see the passion Wayne brings. Unfortunately, during the show I attended, there were a number of missteps requiring the technician to call out some lines, but even with those the entire experience was extremely enjoyable, both to learn this history and the personal story he tells.
