SpanishFly Juan Casanova invites you to SuperKick
on Mexican-style pro-wrestling, aka Lucha Libre, is an actual theatrical production aimed at demystifying the genre.
Lucha Libre has been a tradition in Mexico for over 75 years and is the second largest live sport in the country after soccer. It is entertainment that pits good against evil, while storylines are told inside of the ring. Originally, Mexican wrestlers donned masks to hide their identities because they had day jobs as bankers or doctors. The professionals were sidelining as pro wrestlers. The masks of course, were also meant to evoke fear in their opponents.
Unlike typical US Pro Wrestling, Mexican wrestlers, aka Luchadores, come in all shapes, sizes and genders, donning capes and masks to add an extra element of showmanship. The cast of characters range from wrestlers who are under 5 feet tall to cross-dressers, high flyers and heavyweights, while the in-ring action is more acrobatic and sensational than the traditional U.S wrestling featured on television.
SuperKick Superstars who will be performing at the House of Independents next month include "The Spanish Fly" Juan Casanova, who is known for romancing his audiences both inside and outside the ring. "Classico" El Dorado, a Luchadore as famous for eating over 50 tacos in one sitting as for his willingness to take on any challenger, both at the Taqueira and in the wrestling ring, will also be featured in the production.
The central story of SuperKick focuses on a third generation promoter who is breaking away from his father's very successful wrestling company to create a new wrestling league called SuperKick, based on Lucha Libre. The show's storyline has plot twists and turns as any play would, while featuring lots of in-ring, high-flying wrestling action. Television interviews that would normally take place backstage will be performed on stage in front of the live audience. This is another unique element that differentiates this show.
SuperKick is the brainchild of Lucha Libre USA: Masked Warriors creators and producers, Steven Ship and Alex Abrahantes. This team has produced some of the largest arena tours and TV shows in the Pro Wrestling genre. The SuperKick show promises to deliver a totally unique experience by blending the best of Lucha Libre with comedy and theatrics, while adding a healthy dose of audience participation.
"SuperKick is unlike any other Lucha Libre or Pro Wrestling show," says Abrahantes. "This is a theatrical production where the audience is very much a part of the show. There has never been a Pro Wrestling or Lucha Libre show that encourages the audience to participate and interact in the performance as this one does. With elements of music, comedy and breathtaking in-ring performances, SuperKick is a show that anyone, regardless of whether they're a fan of wrestling or not, will enjoy."
Co-Producer Steven Ship feels that this format of entertainment is perfect for the Millennial audience. "It's one of those shows that you must see," says Ship. "Action will take place onstage, in the ring, and virtually around the entire venue, right in there with the audience. You never know if the person next to you might be a wrestler or if the action will end up taking place right in front of you," continues Ship. The audience is encouraged to participate with the in-ring antics and to attend the production wearing their own wrestlers' masks, wigs, or anything they want to best express their inner Lucha warrior."
Ticket prices range from $30 for General Admission to $50 for VIP ringside seats, which also include an autograph session at the end of the show. Doors open at 7PM. The show begins at 8PM.
