Wings
by Arthur Kopit
Synopsis
This remarkable play starred Constance Cummings in a Tony-winning performance on Broadway.
Emily Stilson seventy years old and a celebrated former aviatrix and stunt pilot suffers a stroke and is plunged into a world of disorientation and grief.
Memories flood in between painful attempts to relearn the basic functions of everyday life.
Aided by a dedicated young therapist Emily's flights of memory and emotion create an evocative portrait of the ability of the human spirit to renew and survive
