"They have been trained to meet danger head-on, to execute vital strategic maneuvers while flying at breathtaking speeds," according to production notes. "But after a series of fatal accidents, a close-knit squadron of male Navy pilots begins to splinter—and becomes the focus of a criminal investigation. As a government agent digs to uncover the cause of the accidents, two of the pilots engage in a secret, forbidden relationship. Their affair is exposed…and the squadron is engulfed by an incendiary scandal that will challenge each pilot’s notions of friendship, love, honor and courage."
The 104-minute film is rated R for "language, some sexual content and graphic nudity."
Greer's take on the "Don't Ask/Don't Tell" military policy opened Oct. 16, 2002, at Off-Broadway's Samuel Beckett Theatre. It played a limited engagement through Dec. 15, 2002.
