Photo Coverage: SPIDER-MAN: Turn Off the Dark First Preview!

All anyone in the world of theatre is talking about so far this morning is last night's first preview of the highly anticipated SPIDER-MAN: Turn Off the Dark. Message boards and Twitter were abuzz throughout the show, as audiences sat through 4 technical stops in Act 1, and 1 in Act 2 as well as an elongated intermission and one heckler, but the show as performed from beginning to end. 

The show also garnered what was most likely the most press coverage of a first preview in history. For a small preview -- check out The New York Times, The New York Post and The Wall Street Journal and of course -- Rialto Chatter. And, even geek movie site - Ain't It Cool News.
