ABOUT THE SHOW
The thing about space is you have to contend with earth.
At the dawn of two different Space Races, aviators traverse time, generations, Newtonian physics, governments, political bodies — and human bodies — to reach beyond our star system for a radical re-start.
"SPACE" intertwines imagined scenes with Congressional transcripts, and feats of endurance with the historical record, to interrogate the story of the Mercury 13 female pilots and their ancestors — Bessie Coleman, Hazel Ying Lee — and descendants — Mae Jemison, Sally Ride — over the course of a national Civil Rights Space Race that has spanned our past century.
"SPACE" asks: What future are we headed towards?
