Tarzan Andrews

Posted by on November 7, 2011

How daring of the Riverdale High School drama club to be staging a Tarzan drama 25 years before the Disney Broadway version. This story appears in Archie Giant Series Magazine #504, March 1981. The animated Disney movie which begat the Broadway show was released in 1999. There is a Tarzan stage legacy dating back to the early 1920s, nine years after Edgar Rice Burroughs’ first Tarzan novel was published.

The live Tarzan show which was created nearest to this Archie portrayal was probably T. Zee, a rock musical by Richard O’Brien of Rocky Horror Show fame. Like we say, daring.
