CHALLENGER: Soaring with Christa McAuliffe

Who is America's favorite teacher? Ask anyone about Christa McAuliffe and they will tell you exactly where they were when the Challenger shuttle launched; however, few people understand who Mrs. McAuliffe really was. America's Teacher in Space was an educational pioneer and her goals and accomplishments are explored in this multi-media performance experience, which debuted in 2016 in honor of the 30th anniversary of the Challenger shuttle's ill-fated launch.

History At Play LLC Founder and Artistic Director Judith Kalaora shares Christa's spirit with you and chronicles the true story behind the incredible teacher and an American Pioneer. Suitable for all ages.
