The Wake Forest Renaissance Centre for the Arts will present two morning performances of the “Super Me” Anti-Bullying Show on Tuesday, Oct. 17. Show times are 9:30 and 11:30 a.m.
Presented by Story Ship, “Super Me” is a fast-paced theatrical adventure that combines high-energy hip-hop dance, intense video gaming, astounding magic, interactive animation and a live actor. Audience members are taken on a virtual journey into a comic book world to help a young boy escape from bullies.
During the program amazing animated and real life videos are projected onto a large screen during the performance allowing audience members to interact with the characters. The audience must help the boy overcome obstacles and solve puzzles using super powers onstage (Super Human Strength, X-Ray vision, Telekinesis, and Aquakinesis.)
As part of the show, kids are taught a hip-hop dance based on the “Super Me” theme music. At the end of the show, the kids must perform the dance to move to next level of the Super Me training program. The Super Me song summarizes all the Anti-Bullying methods provided during the show. Kids not only see real life examples of bullying, but are given clear step-by-step actions to help stop bullying.
Each performance will last approximately one hour.
