SCC's Center Stage Theatre to present 'Next Year's Man of Steel' April 23-27

Published: 03/21/2014

“Next Year’s Man of Steel” is set in 1940 when a struggling and opportunistic writer, Everett Gardner, is given the chance to make a mark in the still infant comic book industry. All he has to do is create a hero, which turns out to be more difficult than he expects. Everett learns that heroes can arise in the most unexpected places.
