NR'S Charlie McCullagh reprises his lead role of Larry in this new musical. 

Making it's North American Premiere, 42 Balloons is a soaringly original musical. On July 2, 1982, truck driver Larry Walters defied the odds (and FAA airspace regulations) to achieve his lifelong dream of flying. In a lawn chair attached to 42 weather balloons, Larry—supported by his girlfriend and a community of unlikely heroes—ascended 16,000 feet into the blue sky above LA… and from the moment he landed, their lives would never be the same. Featuring an irresistible ’80s pop-inspired score, 42 Balloons is a funny, moving, and thrillingly staged new musical that asks: How far would you go for your dream… and how far would you be willing to fly?
