My SuperHero Roberto Clemente


In 2011 Teatro SEA produced the Off-Broadway Musical about the life of Roberto Clemente, DC-7:The Roberto Clemente Story (Winner of 14 Awards) for adults.  DC-7 was so successful, we were inspired to create a new bilingual musical for children, My Superhero Roberto Clemente, which will open on May 24, 2014 at 3:00pm.


We believe that our children need heros, and they will find a hero in Roberto Clemente through his humanitarian work, leadership and his courge to face adverse and challenging situations.

In this new Musical, Bobby and his friends discover the super powers that make Roberto Clemente a Superhero. The life of the baseball great, Roberto Clemente Walker, comes to life in this charming heart-felt musical, that features a brilliant music score by Alejandro Zuleta, spectacular choreography by Danny Soto, and animations and puppetry by our master puppeteer, Jose Lopez.

My Superhero Roberto Clemente draws on the journey of Bobby and his friends who discover that Roberto Clemente is a Superhero, after learning that he was the first Hispanic ever inducted into the Baseball Hall of Fame, from his humble origins to his record-breaking career with the Major Leagues. As a sports star, civil rights advocate, humanitarian, and family man, Clemente defied all odds and triumphed, forging a legacy of motivation and excellence that is still much alive today.  This bilingual musical play is a not-to-be-missed tribute to one of the the greatest Latin heroes of all times!

The show stars Jesus Martinez, Jorge Castilla, Christopher Williams, Ann Flanigan,  Miranda Childrers,and Alan González, 

Roberto Clemente (1934-72) was one of the most beloved figures in the history of the MLB. He was the first Latino to win a World Series as a rookie (1960.) He also won the MVP Award (1966) and the World Series MVP Award (1971.) He finished his career with over 3,000 hits and 12 Golden Glove Awards. He was posthumously inducted into the Baseball Hall of Fame following his untimely death on December 31st, 1972 from a plane crash while traveling to deliver aid to earthquake victims in Nicaragua.
