“An Officer and a Gentleman”

Based on the Oscar-winning film, this breathtaking production celebrates triumph over adversity and includes one of the most iconic and romantic endings ever portrayed on screen. Zack Mayo’s got smarts and a body built for U.S. Navy pilot boot camp, but he also has too much swagger … until he meets a drill sergeant who’s determined to drill his arrogance out of him. Zack finds comfort in the arms of a local factory girl. But it isn’t until tragedy befalls a fellow candidate that Zack learns the importance of love and friendship, finds the courage to be his best self and win the heart of the woman he loves.
