Stuntboy, In the Meantime
Adapted from the book by Jason Reynolds • Illustrated by Raúl the Third
Meet Portico Reeves—aka Stuntboy—the neighborhood superhero!
From the imaginative mind of New York Times bestselling author Jason Reynolds, comes a vibrant stage adaptation of Stuntboy, In the Meantime, brought to life by TheaterWorksUSA. This high-energy, heartfelt musical tells the story of Portico Reeves, a kid with a big imagination who takes on the world as his secret superhero alter ego, Stuntboy. His mission? To protect those around him from hurt, harm, or danger—even if that includes battling bullies, dodging “frets,” and navigating the very complicated vibes of his parents’ recent split.
Filled with catchy songs, comic-book energy, and messages of self-care and resilience, Stuntboy is a superhero story that proves sometimes the biggest superpower is just being yourself.
