RISE ABOVE at the Columbus Air Show

Step Inside History with the RISE ABOVE Mobile Movie Theater at the Columbus Air Show!
The fully functional RISE ABOVE Mobile Movie Theater features two compelling original short films, RISE ABOVE: The Tuskegee Airmen and RISE ABOVE: The WASP, sharing the stories of the extraordinary obstacles these heroes overcame to serve during World War II.
Housed in a climate-controlled 53-foot semi-trailer with expandable sides, the theater is equipped with a ramp and hydraulic lift to ensure accessibility for all, comfortably accommodating up to 30 visitors per showing. Its dynamic 160-degree panoramic screen creates the thrilling sensation of soaring in the cockpit above the clouds alongside these historic figures.
The Tuskegee Airmen and Women Airforce Service Pilots (WASP) were trailblazers who broke barriers in a time of segregation and discrimination. The Tuskegee Airmen were the first Black military pilots in U.S. history, proving courage and skill could overcome systemic prejudice. The WASP were the first women to fly military aircraft for the U.S., paving the way for future generations of female aviators. Both groups not only contributed critically to the Allied war effort during WWII but also challenged societal norms, inspiring lasting change in military service and civil rights.
