Metro Theater Company and Soundwave Comic Xpo Present: 'It’s Hero Time!' A Family-Friendly Superhero Day at the Missouri History Museum on October 19
Metro Theater Company (MTC), in partnership with Soundwave Comic Xpo, invites families to join us for an action-packed day of superhero fun with It’s Hero Time! on Saturday, October 19, at the Missouri History Museum from 10:00am to 3:00pm, featuring a day of family-friendly activities. This event is free and open to the public.
Come dressed as your favorite hero or in your superhero t-shirt and enjoy our gaming room, coloring station, cosplay photoshoots, museum scavenger hunt, live DJ, vendors, and much more. Food is available for purchase at The Key Bistro at the museum.
Watch the world premiere of An Unlikely Hero, A New Superhero Play by Emilio Rodriguez commissioned by Metro Theater Company, Trike Theater, and the Arkansas Museum of Fine Art. In a world of heroes and villains, where do you belong? Jordan doesn’t fit in at school and spends every free moment immersed in comic books. A sudden invitation to attend Haven High, a school for superheroes, sends Jordan on a journey of self-discovery. Will Jordan prove to be a villain or a superhero after all? Thanks to the generosity of The Norm Way, 250 FREE community tickets are available to see An Unlikely Hero live on stage. This production is made possible with the support of the National Endowment for the Arts and the Whitaker Foundation.
This full day of family-friendly fun is free and open to the public. Families are encouraged to reserve tickets for An Unlikely Hero early, as the free community tickets will go fast!
