Holy addiction! Superhero Celebrity Rehab, a new musical comedy by William Segal and Brendan Snow, is about a bunch of oddball superheroes who retreat to the Origins Rehab Center in order to deal with their various dependencies on drugs, sex, Pop-Tarts, etc. Directed by Matt Johnston, the show stars Bill Coyne as Supernova and also features Bryce Kempf as The Great Fondue, Corrie Beula as The Black Hole, Jana DeBusk as The Scarlet Letter, Melody Moore as Dr. Bonnie, Sam Perwin as Nightmare, and Will Cooper as Critter. It will be presented for four performances only, June 5-7, at the Access Theatre. Here are my photos of the production; for more information, visit superheromusical.com .
