An original, Broadway-style production commissioned by the Arsht Center brings to the stage one of the greatest stories in American history- Wilbur and Orville Wright’s discovery of human flight. Kitty Hawk launched in 2017 and is a live theater performance Science, Technology, Engineering, Arts and Math (STEAM) initiative that aims to educate all 25,000 seventh graders in Miami-Dade County Public Schools about the Wright brothers’ world-changing discovery of flight. Students are transported to the Arsht Center each year at no cost to them or their schools.
