An MCU moment becomes an actual stage show with Rogers: The Musical
TARA BENNETT
A Musical Marvel

WITHIN THE CANON of the Marvel Cinematic Universe, Marvel Studios president Kevin Feige has greenlit plenty of outside-the-box creations like Marvel One-Shots (Agent Carter, Item 47), Marvel Studios Special Presentations (Werewolf By Night), in-world books (forthcoming Ant-Man memoir Look Out For The Little Guy!) and theme park rides. Now comes an official musical.

Rogers: The Musical is playing exclusively, just for the summer, at the Hyperion Theatre in Disney California Adventure Park in Anaheim, California. This live, 30-minute, original musical is all about the life of the MCU's version of Captain America/Steve Rogers, told through eight songs that chart his life to the aged version seen at the end of Avengers: Endgame.

No, it's not poking fun. Rather, it's a very earnest throwback, weirdly in keeping with the upstanding, old-school hero that Steve Rogers represents. The concept was born from the enthusiastic response to the faux Broadway show of the same name featured in the Disney+ series Hawkeye.

As audiences watched Clint Barton (Jeremy Renner) wince through a catchy musical theatre number - "Save The Day", written by Marc Shaiman and Scott Wittman - about the Avengers saving New York City, Dan Fields, executive creative director at Disney Live Entertainment, was spurred to act.
