You will receive a unique password-protected link on the morning of November 7 and can watch the performance anytime during the week from 10 a.m. on November 7 until 11:59 p.m. on November 11.

The cost of war, the complexities of Britain’s colonial past, and the true story of a soldier’s survival.

Underachiever extraordinaire William Avery Bishop is the Royal Military College's worst student ever. But before he can be expelled, he enlists for service in the miserable trenches of the First World War. One day, the brash recruit spots a single-seater plane circling overhead, igniting his passion for flight. Defying intense prejudice and astonishing danger, he rises through the Royal Canadian Air Force ranks and transforms from a rebellious young man into the most successful fighter pilot of his generation.

This powerful and gripping theatre experience about one of Canada’s most irreverent heroes has been captured for you to enjoy at home. You won't want to miss it!
