The little known story of a pioneering black fighter pilot who later worked with Josephine Baker and Duke Ellington has inspired a new show drawing contemporary parallels.
Eugene Bullard’s extraordinary life story traces many of the twentieth century’s most important moments and is brought to the stage by imitating the dog.
Named after the inscription on Bullard’s World War One fighter plane, All Blood Runs Red weaves together his experiences and story with that of actor Morgan Bailey who has co-written the production with imitating the dog’s co-director and artistic director, Andrew Quick.
