On Saturday September 22 the curtain came down on the last performance of the world premiere of the Maltby/Shire/Weidman musical, 'Take Flight', at the Menier Chocolate Factory - just proverbially of course, as the beautifully intimate space created by set designer David Farley dispensed with the use of a curtain. Instead the audience were drawn into a world on an open sand-strewn playing area that from the first moments captivated them in a triangular storyline concerning the trials and tribulations of the Wright Brothers' premiere flight as well as the lives of two other pioneers of aviation - Charles Lindbergh and Amelia Earhart.
Take Flight is a new musical by award-winning song writing duo Richard Maltby, Jr., and David Shire, with book by John Weidman. The creative team sees the award-winning trio of Sam Buntrock (Director), David Farley (Designer) and Caroline Humphris (Musical Supervisor) return fresh from their Olivier Award-winning success with Sunday in the Park with George.
