Rogers: The Musical is a one-act musical featured in the Hyperion Theater of Hollywood Land at Disney California Adventure. The show is based on a gag from the Disney+ series Hawkeye and is supposed to revolve around a musical retelling of Steve Rogers' life which the Avengers are invited to, with only Hawkeye attending.
History[]
Summary[]
Trivia[]
- Marvel has an infamous history with musical stage-production adaptations of their characters due to Spider-Man: Turn Off the Dark, a broadway musical based on Spider-Man which is the most expensive Broadway production in history with a notoriously bad critical and commercial reception along with various cast-injuries.
- The billboards in New York City contain various easter-eggs:
- Some of the decor is taken from the Marvel Police Precinct meet 'n' greet which used to appear in Hollywood Land.
- There is a promotion for the Lion King on broadway.
- A screen references the, "Secret Empire", a Captain America comic-book storyline where Red Skull brainwashed Captain America into being an agent for HYDRA. The screen uses the storyline's logo.
- There is an advertisement for the Stark Expo, an event central to the theme-park universe's storyline.
- "Stan's Heroes New York Deli" pays tribute to Stan Lee.
- Stan Lee's tribute in Rogers: The Musical is somewhat out of place as while he did some work for Captain America, he did not create the character (that was Jack Kirby and Joe Simon). Stan Lee also was on the side of Marvel Characters Incorporated in 1966 and 1967 which took Captain America's co-creator Joe Simon's legal rights or royalties for the characters which he co-created (under a non-Marvel company), and which was largely responsible for comic-book creators throughout history not being given legal-rights nor royalties for the characters and stories which they create.
