Event Details
Amelia Earhart is performed by actor Sheryl Faye, who has been uniquely and memorably bringing stories of historical women to life for over a decade.
Even as a child, Amelia Earhart’s fearless, adventuresome spirit is evident by hair-raising rides on her homemade rollercoaster and her fascination with the wonder of a new “flying machine” she learns about on a family vacation to the Iowa State Fair. Although considering a career in medicine, her $1 trip in an airplane sparks a passion for flying and the science of aviation. Amelia follows her dreams with an indomitable spirit and her inspiring story reinforces the importance of family, respect for the individuality of others, and the pursuit of budding inspirations.
