A National New Play Network Rolling World Premiere, The Rocket Men launches a conversation about power, complicity and the stories we choose to celebrate. Six women step into the roles of former Nazi scientists who became the backbone of the NASA team that sent America to the moon. These men fled Germany after World War II, remaking their lives in the American South and trading one allegiance for another—building the machinery of the space race while carrying the weight of their past. Told with theatrical invention and gripping urgency, Crystal Skillman’s new play confronts the uneasy bargain between ambition and accountability. Moving between past and present, The Rocket Men unravels the buried truths behind a celebrated chapter of U.S. history, forcing audiences to reckon with the costs of progress. Stay tuned for upcoming panels and conversations that dig even deeper—featuring bold perspectives and sharp minds exploring the themes of the show from all angles.
