Surface to Air is the second in Symphony Space's annual Summer Stock on Broadway series.

Surface to Air is "the story of a family forced to confront long-repressed issues and current realities when the remains of their son, a Vietnam veteran, are returned to them 30 years after his plane was shot down over Vietnam," according to press notes.
