Synopsis

The world premier of this newly-written work, performed by the Purple Theatre Company. An original show, written by a Hillingdon resident, Phil Burton, along with Bas Dickson Leach and Toby Vennard.

This is the hilarious tale of what it means to live up to the title of superhero, whilst living in the world they have to protect. And what’s more, doing it to music! Come along and see the Purple Theatre Company do what they do best - saving the world one laugh at a time
