I have loved watching superhero films for as long as I can remember. Something that has always interested me was the management and intricacies around superpowered rights within these worlds.

In the Marvel Cinematic Universe (MCU) this is touched upon with the film Avengers: Civil War around the laws of superpowers.
Matthew Bourne’s The Midnight Bell at The Sadlers Wells Theatre: A Review
Sexy, smouldering, and sad, The Midnight Bell is Matthew Bourne’s latest work, inspired by the works and characters of English author Patrick Hamilton. Bourne tells the story of the mysterious characters of the 1930s Soho night scene, all emerging to gather at the pub seeking solace in their drink while longing for a sense of connection. The Midnight Bell is their local, a pub in the under-belly of Soho, you can sense the sticky floors and grime. In this hidden corner, under the cover of night, the characters are able to drop their masks and we get to have a look into their deepest and darkest desires.
