When Batman and Robin learn of an underworld theatre that is producing a show depicting Batman and Robin getting killed over and over again, they go undercover as themselves in order to capture a major crime boss who will be in attendance at the show. However, they are unaware that the director is on to them and has arranged for real death traps to replace the staged ones.
