This one’s for Jerrie 1931-2019

They Promised Her the Moon is the story of Jerrie Cobb – a woman who was not afraid to dream big a world record holding pilot – an almost astronaut – 40 years in the amazon as a bush pilot – a story we should know. 

Jerrie just passed away yesterday at 88 years old.

So this play is for her.

Read more about Jerrie at the National Aviation Hall of Fame.
