Spider-Man is now booking to 25 May 2014

The Broadway premiere of Spider-Man, Turn Off The Dark has extended its booking period through to 25 May 2014. The musical opened at the Foxwoods Theatre on 14 Jun 2011, following previews from 28 Nov 2010.

Drawing from more than 40 years of Marvel comic books for inspiration, Spider-Man, Turn Off The Dark follows the story of teenager Peter Parker, whose unremarkable life is turned upside-down—literally — when he's bitten by a genetically altered spider and wakes up the next morning clinging to his bedroom ceiling. This bullied science-geek—suddenly endowed with astonishing powers — soon learns, however, that with great power comes great responsibility as villains test not only his physical strength but also his strength of character.

Spider-Man, Turn Off The Dark features music and lyrics by 22-time Grammy Award-winners Bono and The Edge of U2, and a book by Julie Taymor and Glen Berger ('Underneath The Lintel'), with original direction by Julie Taymor and Philip Wm. McKinley as the show's creative consultant).
