Flight 360
by Leslie Fields

Dramatic Adventure Theatre
Teatro IATI & Red Room, July 2008

Four actors, one playwright and I traveled across Ecuador teaching theater skills and basic English, offering community aid, laying the groundwork for future work, and developing Flight 360.

Eyes closed, this story begins with a flight. As they are lifted from the comforts of home, these characters begin a journey that will demand much from them. They land somewhere between dream and reality, paradise and poverty, and soon find themselves tested with physical, mental, and emotional challenges. We witness them twisting and turning into the wonder of the unknown. Eyes open, this story ends with a flight... and although the destination is clearly marked on the ticket, a new world awaits.
