Impact Theatre continues its 9th season with the hilarious Meanwhile, Back at the Super Lair by Greg Kalleres. Ten years ago the mayor of Sate City appointed the Super Tribe — four superheroes called The Human Fly, Silver Streak, Rhino Man, and Leopard Woman — to protect the city’s denizens. Despite the members of the Super Tribe lacking any actual superpowers, an early and accidental victory left Sate City crime-free. Ten years later, the Super Tribe is still on the city payroll, but all our not-so-superheroes do is hang around the Super Lair (a subletted apartment) wearing spandex and playing cards.
But now the Super Tribe must battle twin forces of evil: 1) a brand-new, mysterious supervillain, the Eidolon, and 2) city bureaucracy, in the form of an efficiency expert who has been sent to determine whether the Super Tribe is wasting precious budget allocations.
