“Spider-Man” musical back on track after last night’s show


By Sean O’Connell
Hollywoodnews.com: This time, “Spider-Man: Turn Off the Dark” was not ensnared in a web of trouble.

Instead, the production sailed through the air with the greatest of ease when it resumed its Broadway schedule, according to Newsday.

“After days of meetings about safety problems, the $65 million musical flew and danced and sang the way it was supposed to,” the newspaper reported. “Before this show began, [producers] … explained that there might be ‘some bumps in the road tonight.’ There were none.”

But there were replacements in the cast, as ailing actors continued to heal following a handful of well-publicized accidents.

As for right now, “Spider-Man” is back on track and preparing for its official opening on Feb. 7, 2011.
