    The 30-minute one-act live theater production will be performed several times daily Tuesdays through Saturdays on most weeks during the run.

    Complimentary spots in the “Rogers: The Musical” virtual queue will be distributed via the Disneyland app on show days at 10:30 a.m. for the first two performances and 2 p.m. for the remaining shows.

    If you’re lucky enough to snag a seat you’ll get notified via your smartphone to join the physical queue 30 to 45 minutes before showtime, according to WDW News Today.

    You don’t need to join the virtual queue to see “Rogers: The Musical” — but Disneyland highly recommends it. Stop by the Hyperion Theater main entrance to check on walk-up availability if you forget to join the virtual queue or it sells out quickly.

    The musical’s backstory will follow the journey of Steve Rogers from his service in World War II to becoming Earth’s first known superhero to the birth of the Avengers.

    Marvel fans were introduced to the fictional “Rogers: The Musical” in the first episode of the Disney+ series “Hawkeye.” In the show, Hawkeye attends a performance of the Broadway musical about the life of Rogers, the first Captain America.

    “In the show, all the Avengers are invited to New York for the premiere of the brand new, showstopping musical but only Clint Barton, aka Hawkeye, shows up,” according to Marvel.com. “The MIA Avengers don’t know what they’re missing, though, as viewers are treated to a musical number based on The Battle of New York … though a few creative liberties have been taken here and there.”

    The new “Rogers” musical coming to DCA’s Hyperion will feature “Save the City,” “Star Spangled Man” from the 2011 film “Captain America: The First Avenger” and five new original songs written for the show.

    Disney Live Entertainment has been auditioning actors, singers and dancers for the Broadway-caliber theatrical production. In addition to Rogers as Captain America, the cast of Marvel characters will include SHIELD founder Peggy Carter, Avengers founder Nick Fury and members of the Avengers.

    “It’s a classic tale of heroes, time travel and romance,” according to the Disney Parks Blog. “Oh, and Nick Fury sings.”

    The new show will be written by Tony-nominee Hunter Bell with music by Grammy-winner Christopher Lennertz. Bell wrote the book for “Villains Tonight” on the Disney Cruise Line, according to Broadway World. Lennertz served as music director on Disneyland’s new “Wondrous Journeys” fireworks show.

    “Frozen: Live at the Hyperion” was the last show to play at the 2,000-seat Hyperion before the theater went dark in 2020 during the yearlong pandemic closure of DCA and Disneyland. The theater has stood vacant since the parks returned in 2021.
