Rogers: The Musical is coming to Disney California Adventure next week, and a sneak peek behind the scenes look has been released.
The behind the scenes video gave a peek into rehearsals for the actors, dancers, singers, musicians, sound crew, and more. It also gave a preview of several sets. A version of the set above also featured a “Milwaukee, Wisconsin” postcard. This is most likely for “Star Spangled Man.”
The bridge set from the “Rogers: The Musical” scenes in the “Hawkeye” Disney+ series was also previewed.
Another set saw the stage transform into a USO hall.
Several shots showcased the performers hard at work in rehearsal, including an actor holding the iconic Captain America shield.
A costume preview revealed a dark motorcycle jacket with silver striping, reminiscent of a jacket worn by Steve Rogers in the Marvel Cinematic Universe.
Howard Stark’s lab where Steve received the super soldier serum will also be included.
Rogers: The Musical will be performed several times a day through August 31 in the Hyperion Theater.
Watch the behind the scenes footage below.
Rogers: The Musical opens on June 30 at Disney California Adventure.
Rogers: The Musical Details
Exploring universal themes of heroism, romance and self-discovery, “Rogers: The Musical” is an exhilarating and heartfelt experience for Super Hero fans, theater enthusiasts and families alike. Avengers aficionados will appreciate creative interpretations of iconic objects and moments from Steve’s journey, while theater fans will love the eclectic array of musical styles in the score and the show’s original choreography.
“Rogers: The Musical” at Disney California Adventure park is inspired by the fictional Broadway musical theater sequence featured in the first episode of the Disney+ series “Hawkeye.” This new musical project will come to life through the creativity of Disney Live Entertainment in partnership with book writer Hunter Bell, star and book writer of the Tony Award-nominated “[title of show],” and will feature five all-new songs with music by Grammy-winning composer Christopher Lennertz and lyrics by Jordan Peterson, Christopher Lennertz and Alex Karukas. Plus, fan-favorites songs “Save The City” from the Disney+ series “Hawkeye” (written by Marc Shaiman and Scott Wittman), and “Star Spangled Man” from the film “Captain America: The First Avenger” (written by Alan Menken and David Zippel).
