the musical
book by David Newman and Robert Benton
music by Charles Strouse
lyrics by Lee Adams
(based upon the comic strip “SUPERMAN”)
directed by Harry White and Raphael Berglas
Foster Cat Productions joined DC's SUMMER OF SUPERMAN with our biggest scale musical yet!
Co-Produced with MacPac Entertainment, behind TONY-WINNING MUSICAL, BUENA VISTA SOCIAL CLUB.
From the Academy Award-winning writers of Bonnie and Clyde, Kramer vs. Kramer, and Superman (1978), and the composer of Annie and Bye Bye Birdie, comes a rarely seen musical, campy and fun, that brings the man of steel to the stage in a hilariously unique story that explores the differences of alter ego Clark Kent and who he becomes when he dons the famous "S". He's caught in a love triangle with Lois Lane and an overly ambitious Daily Planet reporter who is eager to leak Superman's true identity. All the while, a vengeful scientist plots something sinister...
Foster Cat Productions had the honor of doing a sneak preview of this musical on KTLA, as well as an interview with director Harry White and star Emily Jones. View it here!
“The production gleams with retro flair: pop-art sets, technicolor lighting and costumes”
“True independent theatre.”
