SPIDER-MAN: TURN OFF THE DARK has been making headlines since even before it began previews in November 2010. It comes as no surprise, then, that Law & Order: Criminal Intent - known for molding the stories that make news into their plot - created an episode inspired by the mammoth musical that aired last night, June 19. Click below to watch Cynthia Nixon channel Julie Taymor and the cast spoof SPIDEY.
One person who everyone's looked to for comment is the former director of the production who was infamously ousted this April: Julie Taymor. For more than a hundred previews, Taymor led SPIDER-MAN through all of its highs and well-reported lows. During yesterday's Los Angeles theater conference, hosted by Oberlin College professor Roger Copeland, Taymor broke her silence for the first time publicly since her departure.
Although SPIDER-MAN: TURN OFF THE DARK has seldom stopped making headlines in the past year, the team behind the musical has been all but mum on details regarding their tumultous journey. From recasting, to previews, to delays, and finally opening night - which took place just this Tuesday - there has been more attention focused on the show than any in recent memory.

This time, unlike back in February, the critics were actually invited. Let's see what they thought...
On the subject of breaking the 10:00 p.m. embargo on reviews, -Rick Miramontez, Spokesperson, SPIDER-MAN Turn Off The Dark released a statement noting that 'For The Hollywood Reporter to break the embargo and run its review before opening night curtain goes up is the epitome of bad taste. Everyone in this production has waited a very long time to get to this point, and it is incredibly disrespectful that certain members of the media won't wait a few more hours to post their reviews. We trust that no other outlets will stoop so low.'
