How I Saved the World Over Summer Vacation (often referred to by the nickname Kids on Bikes) was a Hideout mainstage show that drew inspiration from kid-oriented ensemble action/sci-fi/horror movies set in the 1980s.
Promotional Blurb
It’s summertime, somewhere in 1980s America. It’s a neighborhood like so many other neighborhoods. The lawns are trimmed. The schools are good. And as the sun begins to set, the shadows seem a little bit longer. There’s something hiding in the darkness, ready to take our world as its own. Aliens? Monsters? Time travelers? Whatever the threat is, there’s only one group that can stop them…as long as they’re home before 10pm!
