Dialogue with Three Chords (D3C) and BrooklynONE Productions (bkONE) staged readings of "The Last Days of the Brave and the Bold," and "A People's History of Superheroism" at Fort Hamilton Distillery in Industry City last Saturday which followed the FREE Brooklyn Comics showcase at St. Marks Comics, also at Industry City.
"The Last Days..." imagines a conversation with William Moulton Marston, the creator of Wonder Woman, and Frederic Wertham, the Joseph McCarthy of comics. "A People's History..." is a monologue from a Silver Age superhero looking back on her Golden Age roots and fearing for the Dark Age of the future.
Dialogue with Three Chords was founded by Stephen Gracia and Michael LoPorto in 2011 and applies the do-it-yourself philosophy of punk to the stage and features short plays and live music. Their work has also been produced at HERE Arts Center, Dixon Place, Industry City, The SOHO Gallery of Digital Art, Sargent Theatre, Makor Theater, DUMBO Theatre Exchange, Levenson Hall at Brooklyn College, and the Theaters at 45 Bleecker.
