The story of the Batman mythology's creation returned to the Bronx in GRAND Style on Saturday night! DeWitt Clinton High School Campus' Elegant Walter J. Degnan Auditorium was converted into a virtual Batman's 75th Anniversary Celebration on Saturday night for the long-awaited premiere of Roberto Williams' stage drama FATHERS OF THE DARK KNIGHT!!
Historians, authors, theater reviewers, and Batman fans from around the country made the trip up to the "castle on the parkway" to enjoy two hours of excitement, and Batman creation history. The story of Bob Kane, Bill Finger, and Jerry Robinson's fateful collaboration was enjoyed by the likes of Athena Finger (Bill Finger's grand daughter), Marc Tyler Nobleman (Author of the acclaimed book "Bill The Boy Wonder", Travis Langley (Author of the book "Batman & Psychology: A Dark and Stormy Knight") and Comic Book artist, historian, and lecturer Arlen Schumer!
Nearly three years in the making from its original conception, FATHERS OF THE DARK KNIGHT was a spectacle that surpassed even its playwright / Director's vision. Brilliant acting, stunning set pieces, hair-raising stunts and fight sequences, top-quality costuming, grand orchestral music blaring from the sound system... It was an experience unlike any other seen at the Bronx auditorium!!
