I was lucky enough to see the show today at Long Wharf. It was amazing! Barbot comedicly cuts through the intricacies of the corporatization of identity, while bringing us along for a superhero ride about a small Brooklyn neighborhood. Fighting with your own identity is tough but it tougher when there's an evil villian in the room. The fight scenes were part Power Ranger, Part Beetlejuice and all una show espectacular! See it when you can, you don't wannt to miss this!

Uses, bends, and explores the middle grounds between the mythic and the cartoonish. This play closely examines the fantasy of the superhero, as both a personal symbol of empowerment, and as a representation of the hope for a powerful, benevolent guardian. The dream is distorted by the rising specters of capitalism and corporate cynicism, but even though the threat is vast, there's a genuine sense of hope when our hero comes to stand against them. Barbot's play is remarkable in how it follows the plot structure of a true superhero narrative, and builds on it with purpose.

A terrific exploration of identity and family as two brothers work to prove themselves to the world. Well done!
