When I first heard that Disney California Adventure was planning a stage show inspired by Rogers: The Musical as it appeared in the first episode of the Disney+ Hawkeye series, I probably thought the same thing a lot of people did. That was a funny joke in the show, and I bet the show at the park will be hilarious. But I have now seen Rogers: The Musical at the Disneyland Resort, and while it is funny, what it is even more is a fantastic piece of musical theater.
I am absolutely blown away by the show. It almost certainly could have worked as the joke that the Broadway show was meant to be in Hawkeye, but the people involved at Disney Live Entertainment have crafted something that raises the bar of what a stage show at a theme park can be.
