These fine gentlemen were the stars this past summer of
A Vida Secreta de Batman e Robin, a Sao Paolo play about the Secret Lives of Batman and Robin. I learned about it
here, and you can find more info and an extra photo
here. (Don't read Portuguese? Not to worry--
Babelfish to the rescue, although you'll encounter translations like this: "The home-bat discloses in the part that wanted exactly was to be the man-butterfly.")
Apparently Bat-actor Renato Pope received at least one death threat for daring to besmirch the sterling reputation (and assumed heterosexuality) of the caped crusader. I am of course intrigued, almost enough to consider booking a flight for Brazil, although I must say the whole premise seems awfully close to
a notorious movie about another legendary detective and his live-in companion.
But hey: works for me.
