42 Balloons
Details
A new musical from the award‑winning producers of SIX. July 2, 1982. With a lawn chair and approximately 42 helium-filled weather balloons, truck driver Larry Walters defied all odds (and FAA airspace regulations) to achieve his lifelong dream: soaring 16,000 feet above Los Angeles. No, seriously—in a chair. Inspired by the unbelievable true story of how Larry and his partner Carol Van Deusen rallied their friends and family to help them reach new heights, this heartwarming and hilarious new musical makes its North American Premiere following a celebrated UK run. Featuring an irresistible 80s-inspired pop score, 42 Balloons asks: How far would you go to make your dreams take flight? Is the sky really the limit… and what happens when things don’t go as planned?
