Now at L’Alliance New York, *Superheroes: A Living Myth* frames rock and pop songwriting as a modern folklore project, using the superhero figure as a shared vocabulary for power, vulnerability, and public image. The performance treats familiar icons less as spectacle than as cultural evidence, asking what these myths do for a city that lives on reinvention. In New York, where comics history, immigrant storytelling, and performance culture intersect, the subject lands with local weight. The sharpest choice is its restraint: it observes the myth rather than selling it.
