Wings of Courage is a play based on the life of Eugene Bullard, the first African-American combat pilot and adventurer. Bullard’s story would be unbelievable if it were not all true: he traveled with a minstrel show, was a professional boxer, a World War I flying ace, a jazz musician, and a spy. He flew against the famous “Red Baron,” and when the color of Bullard’s skin prevented him from taking his place with other American war heroes, he went on to fame as a Paris bandleader.
