Fragments of Ricky the Superhero: A Story About Love

Feed The Herd Theatre Company presents the journey of the titular orphan, found one very dark and stormy night in a basket on a porch. Dark, in danger, and “protected” only by his very overprotective and overencouraging adoptive parents, Ricky grew up to be an imaginative, strong, and deeply lonely young man. Despite the best efforts of Mother and Father, Ricky becomes increasingly isolated, paranoid and afraid. Enter Micky, the local alienated girl behind the ice cream counter, the only girl that can give and receive his true love. And enter Fred, friend and mentor? Or lurker in the shadows, arch nemesis and the tool of all our destruction! So, how can this scared boy save the world for love? With one word…hope.
