Marvel at the cast as they take your suggestions and morph them into a completely original story faster than a speeding bullet. Will our hero use his super powers to defeat the forces of evil? Will her kryptonite be math homework, vegetables, or video games? The choice is up to the audience! Created in the spirit of "Choose Your Own Story" theatre, this show is an opportunity for your family to be a part of the adventure.

"I am so excited for this summer's performances of Zap! Bang! Pow!: An Improvised Superhero Adventure," said Director of Children's Theatre Caroline Kaiser. "This show marks the very first time Florida Studio Theatre is offering a performance for children and families over the summer. This show is an opportunity to get kids off of the digital world of iPads, gaming, and TV and get them into the creative world of live theatre. An inventive combination of Improv and Children's Theatre, this show is a great way to beat the heat and have a special one-of-a-kind family experience for about the cost of a movie ticket!"

Directing this cast is FST Improv Director, Will Luera. The cast includes Patrick A. Jackson. A regular cast member of FST Improv, Jackson is also FST's Education Artistic Associate and WRITE A PLAY Program Coordinator. Remaining cast members include FST Acting Apprentices, Alexa Eldridge, Jacob Perkel, and Kihresha Redmond.

These superheroes will even be invading the 8th Annual Sarasota Improv Festival for a special performance of this family friendly show. Attendees will get the chance to enjoy this unique superhero adventure on July 16 at 11am during the festival.
