THE DAY I LEARNED TO FLY

A New Play by Wendy-Marie Martin

First Look Buffalo Theatre Company (FLB), which exclusively develops and produces new works, continues their 2024-25 season at the beautiful Canterbury Woods Performing Arts Center in Williamsville. Our next production is a new play titled THE DAY I LEARNED TO FLY by Wendy-Marie Martin.  

Synopsis

One day, while walking her dog, Daisy, fifteen-year-old Hattie was struck by a direct hit from 100 million of volts lightning-tastic electricity and SuperHattie was born.  SuperHattie instantly became fluent in a language of flashes and sparks and zzzzts and screams and learned to use them to her advantage. Five years later, SuperHattie has honed her ability to read minds and withstand unbelievable amounts of pain, but she still hasn’t learned to fly. Will she finally find the courage to let go of her fears and soar?

 “We are so excited to welcome playwright Wendy-Marie Martin to Buffalo. She, like all our playwrights, is a professional of the highest standard and I truly believe our local theatre audience will love this play. It features not only great writing, but also an excellent cast, director and crew. Come fly with us January 17th to February 9th in Williamsville at the stunning Canterbury Woods Performing Arts Center.” -Bob Rusch, Artistic Director/Producer First Look Buffalo Theatre Company.
