March 16, 2011: "Next Year's Man of Steel" Theatre Production

Next Year's Man of Steel A new play titled "Next Year's Man of Steel" is playing at the Varscona Theatre in Edmonton, Alberta, Canada.

    The play focuses on the 1940 comic-craze in New York City, when Superman-mania was reaching its first frenzied prime.

    "Apparently Superman-mania dwarfs what we know as Beatlemania. It swarmed the countryside," explains Jenkins. "Comic books up to that point were different; the creation of Superman created a whole genre. They were creating more than just a character and a book, but a new way of storytelling."

The play will run through April 3rd, with tickets priced between $18-$26. Visit the Edmonton Journal website for further details.
