Arthur Kopit’s brilliant contemporary drama 'Wings' completed a celebrated original Broadway premiere run at the Lyceum Theatre in 1979, running for an accomplished seasonal commercial residency and capturing the Tony Award for Best Actress following its hit Public Theater workshops. The textually rich, avant-garde psychological narrative chronicles Emily Stilson, a courageous former wing-walking aviator woman who battles severe clinical aphasia and memory loss following a stroke, fracturing her reality into a sensory labyrinth. Directed by John Madden, it starred Constance Cummings.
