Last night I had the opportunity for an #Angrygeeks first, I was given the chance to review a play about #Batman. Not the character however but the story…the true story on how this iconic character was created. As my wife and I drove the hour and half to Attleboro Massachusetts Community Theater I wondered if my wife would enjoy herself, mind you she and I are the total opposites from two different worlds, I guess that’s why the past 15 years was bliss, As we entered the Theater we were met by Harley Quinn herself as the Classic 1966 Batman TV show playing on a Batman TV set. Into the auditorium we went to find our seats Front row of course, they mood was set with noting but Batman related music and themes. I was honored when co-Director Dave Almeida announced that I was in attendance this is something that I will never forget, then the show began The story of Bill Finger the story of creation of #Batman, the struggles of one mans inner self to find the courage to say enough is enough, the courage he never found. Actor Bob Lively made you believe he was this man as his performance of Comic book writer Bill Finger was unfolded during the two-hour performance. And as the saying goes in the world of comics the Hero is only as good as its villain enter Actor Johnny Bender. Benders performance of Bob Kane the man for years whom claimed #Batman was his Sole creator did his Job to perfection making you truly believe to quote the play “Son of a bitch” and an “Ass-hole” if Awards were to be given. Benders deserves one. The two beautiful leading ladies Megan Begin and Jasia Mackey whom played as Bill’s first and second wives Portia and Lyn Simmons both gave their all as you felt each of their struggles dealing with Bill as he did his best to cope with his inner struggles. Jerry Robinson whom helped create the Joker and Robin was played brilliantly by Michael Capalbo whose facial expressions reminded me of the Joker himself. And Lastly the most heart felt performance of the night must go to supporting player Matt Moos as comic book historian Jerry Bails. I swear I saw real tears as Moos pleaded
