"At an hour long, Super Sidekick is a quick moving, no frills adventure kids are sure to enjoy. And for the big people that brought them, there are well-rounded performances, a couple of solid gags, and expertly crafted lyrics to keep their interest peaked, too… Gregory Crafts’ book is funny and clear, providing a good foundation for Michael Gordon Shapiro’s brilliant lyrics, which get more impressive the closer one listens."

"The team behind Super Sidekick: The Musical have perfected the art of live-action cartoon… even as a grown-up I found it humorous, saucy, and a lot of fun!"

| Character |
|---|
| Inky Sidekick to Blackjack the Bold. Youthful. |
| Blackjack The Bold The greatest hero in The Kingdom. Famous and somewhat self-absorbed. |
| Four Citizens including MR. SMITH and MRS. APPLEBAUM, proud denizens of The Kingdom |
| Queen Ruler of The Kingdom |
| Princess Penelope A princess about Inky’s age, with a fiery independent streak. |
| Sorcerer Slurm The villain. More inept than truly scary. |
| Ninja Koalas Slurm’s Hench-bears |
| Monsters |
