Photo Coverage: NY Jets Visit BLACK ANGELS OVER TUSKEGEE

Based on true events, six men explore their collective struggle with Jim Crow, their intelligence, patriotism, dreams of an inclusive fair society, and brotherhood as they become the first African-American fighter pilots in the U.S. Army Air Forces. Black Angels Over Tuskegee goes beyond the headlines of the popular stories of the Tuskegee Airmen and exposes the men who exhibited the courage to excel in spite of all the overwhelming odds against them.

In addition to being an official selection of the 2009 National Black Theater Festival, Black Angels Over Tuskegee recently won a 2009 NAACP Award for Best Ensemble and a 2009 Artistic Director Achievement Award for Best Play. It was also presented at the 2009 National Tuskegee Airmen Convention in Las Vegas for over 30 chapters. Original Tuskegee Airmen Ted Lumpkin, President of the Los Angeles Chapter, said, "I love this play. It's real and it reminded me of my times at Tuskegee. [It's] a great show."

The playing schedule at the Actors Temple Theatre will be Monday at 8pm, Tuesday at 7pm, Saturday at 8pm, and Sunday at 7pm. Special matinee performance Saturday June 5th at 2pm (no evening performance that day).

Tickets from $36.50 are available at Telecharge.com or by calling 212-239-6200.
