Production Tips for
The Super Non-Heroes

by Taryn Temple

Have you ever felt like you don’t belong? Powerless Charlie sticks out like a sore thumb in a school full of superheroes. Smellinator can’t control her powers and forgot to do her Villain 101 homework. Golden Boy won’t follow protocol. And Toxic Sludge is, well, toxic sludge.

When a supervillain attacks the school Charlie must dig deep within herself. She may not be a superhero but she discovers her unique talents to save the day.

A fabulous middle school play that looks at friendship, acceptance and discovering yourself. Who doesn’t want to be a superhero?

Tips from past Producers

Costumes play a large role in establishing characters, but they are fairly simple costumes to find or produce.

Get creative with the Special Effects, especially making Smellinator's superpower come to life in making things appear. We used a student in a black morph suit to "magically" get things onto the stage.
