What makes someone strong? Superhero costumes have always been inspired by vaudeville, carnival, circus, and sideshow dress. Like strongpersons, these heroes rely on other strengths besides muscle: smarts, creativity, or morality. This is the final weekend N-YHS’s adventurous exhibition, Superheroes in Gotham. Come see the show and meet modern-day strongman Adam RealMan. Watch him perform superhuman feats of strength, including bending metal spikes with his bare hands!
