The amazing show – which is being hailed as the most technically advanced live show ever – features cutting-edge special effects, pyrotechnics, aerial stunts, martial arts, motorcycles and more. It debuts in Tampa this Thursday with multiple shows each day through July 13, before hitting the road on an 85-city tour.
The story is framed around the battle over the Cosmic Cube, the source of ultimate power and one of the most feared and coveted treasures in the Marvel Universe, that has been shattered into pieces by the Mighty Thor in order to prevent it from falling into the wrong hands. With the pieces scattered across the globe, Thor’s villainous brother Loki devises a scheme to clone its powers, inciting a threat that could not only decimate Earth but also obliterate the Universe.
To defeat Loki, Marvel’s biggest super heroes must band together, including The Avengers – Iron Man, Captain America, Hulk and Thor along with Spider-Man and Wolverine – must trek across the globe to retrieve the Cosmic Cube fragments and unite them. As the super heroes track the Cube, they will encounter some of their biggest adversaries including Green Goblin, Doctor Octopus, Red Skull, Madame Hydra, Aldrich Killian, Electro and more, in the quest for the very same fragments.
Tickets are on sale now. For more information visit the Tampa Bay Times Forum website.
