Is Matt Caplan really the Peter Parker/Spider-man u/s?? YIKES!!
A Chorus Line revival played its final Broadway performance on August 17, 2008. The tour played its final performance on August 21, 2011. A new non-equity tour started in October 2012 played its final performance on March 23, 2013. Another non-equity tour launched on January 20, 2018. The tour ended its US run in Kansas City and then toured throughout Japan August & September 2018.
I don't think Matt's quite 40, he might be 32 or 33 but he joined the RENT tour in 99 (I think) and he was really young (IIRC something like 18 or 19).

I NEED to see Matt play Peter. I can't even. I've been listening to the recordings on tumblr, and just. . . I love LOVE his voice, and he is very funny, I love his take on Peter. I'd love to see Matt and Kristen Martin together.
Just an aside, I went to the 9/11 Broadway event in Times Square and was standing where I could see Carney after they performed. He appears to be a very gracious young man. He stopped for every press person that grabbed him and took time to talk with them. He is also taller than I thought. He looks a bit shorter on stage.
No matter his actual calendar age, he's definitely not passing for seventeen in the picture that was posted. He looks like he should be playing MJ's dad.
"You travel alone because other people are only there to remind you how much that hook hurts that we all bit down on. Wait for that one day we can bite free and get back out there in space where we belong, sail back over water, over skies, into space, the hook finally out of our mouths and we wander back out there in space spawning to other planets never to return hurrah to earth and we'll look back and can't even see these lives here anymore. Only the taste of blood to remind us we ever existed. The earth is small. We're gone. We're dead. We're safe."
