It’s not unusual to see a musical based on a movie or TV show or even a comic. But “” might be the first one created from a throwaway joke in a TV show spun-off from a film series based on comic books. Audiences can now check out the mini-musical, which runs about a tight half hour, at Disney California Adventure’s Hyperion Theater, through Aug. 31. I was lucky enough to witness the opening performance last week, followed by a panel discussion with some of the key creatives.
So though we catch less than a minute of the stage show on “Hawkeye,” in those few seconds it achieves something sublime: It’s silly but self-aware; a hilarious commentary on consumerism airing on a network owned by Disney; and, perhaps most important, a genuinely clever and catchy number.
For the book, they called on Hunter Bell, a Tony Award nominee for his work on “[title of show],” to cull hours’ worth of stories from the Marvel Cinematic Universe into a sitcom-length program. Bell knew pretty quickly where he wanted to center “Rogers” — on the story between Steve and Agent Peggy Carter. It makes sense, as “The Avengers” in many ways begins chronologically with “Captain America: The First Avenger” and closes in “Avengers: Endgame” on a shot of the duo.
“[We] wanted to give everyone — both musical theater fans and superhero fans — something they would love about the music,” Lennertz revealed. He was also excited by the idea of spanning 70 years with the music, which gives the audience a chance to several different styles, from Busby Berkeley-inspired big band numbers to a Stephen Sondheim-esque patter song where Nick Fury explains what Rogers has slept through during his 70 years on ice.
