Sharpen your superhero senses and prepare for a one-of-a-kind family theatrical experience.
Marvel at the cast of professional actors as they take your suggestions and morph them into a completely original story at lightning speed. Will our hero use his superpowers to defeat the forces of evil? Will her kryptonite be math homework, vegetables, or video games? The choice is up to the audience! Created in the spirit of “Choose Your Own Story” theatre, this show is an opportunity for your family to be a part of the adventure.
Bounding into Bowne’s Lab at Florida Studio Theatre in downtown Sarasota on June 30th , this show runs through August 5. Performances are select Thursday and Fridays at 10am and 1:30pm with a special Saturday performance on July 16th. For a complete schedule see below.
“I am so excited for this summer’s performances of Zap! Bang! Pow! An Improvised Superhero Adventure,” said Director of Children’s Theatre Caroline Kaiser. “This show marks the very first time Florida Studio Theatre is offering a performance for children and families over the summer. The show is an opportunity to get kids off of the digital world of iPads, gaming, and TV and get them into the creative world of live theatre. An inventive combination of Improv and Children’s Theatre, this show is a great way to beat the heat and have a special live theatre family experience for about the cost of a movie ticket!”
