I love this song :) I went to go see the musical for a school trip, but I seem to be the only one who lolled it..... I want to see again so badly! I hope they put it on DVD I would watch it all the time :)
for me this show is all about TV Caprio. All her numbers were the top moments of the show, specially "Turn Off the Dark" scene. Perfection and a whole new dimension of musical theatre were achieved in this scene (cast, music, set, sound, light, special effects). Bravo!
I remember seeing this 2 months ago and I remember this song especially since it's VERY emotional!!! (Can't say why or it'll run a big part of the show) It's so beautiful also.
@coffinboy65 I hope they do make a DVD of this!That would be awesome!Yeah I don't live in NY either I live in California so there's no way u can go see this in NY!I hope they release it on DVD cause I will buy it for sure and probably watch it on repeat!lol:3

I think about the the cast and crew of "Spider-man Turn Off The Dark" everyday. Truly talented and very kind! Made me feel right at home every time I have seen this AMAZING show!!!! Super Laundry Bag (Super Hero For The Arts).
@anthonyhenrysmith Who are you to judge? There are 3 main types of singing you see on stage, Character (Angela Lansbury in Sweeney Todd and Andrew Rannells in Book of Mormon are good examples) Classical (Opera, choir, musicals like Sister Act, Gospel music) and there's rock and country (which just depends on the individual singing) in this case they have rock music in a musical so they have more of a gravelly tone that some may not appreciate this stylle but it does fit this musical well.
the powers he has been giving are incredible things at that with them he can indeed rise above.
Now I hope that answers everyones questions about why Arachne is singing. And really guys this show is absolutely wonderful. Its one of my favorites. When I saw it, it moved me. It isnt just about super powers. Honestly you have to see that show to understand how amazing it is.
angry at himself, saying that if he wouldve been home instead of the wrestling tournament that he could have stopped this from happening because of his superpowers. The song playing now is Rise Above, and Peter sings about what his uncle tought him, and decides he will now use his powers to save people since he couldnt save his uncle. The reason Arachne (the spider) is shown here singing is because she is sort of now like a spirit within Peter (since he was bit by the spider) telling him that
that u have to get the car to get the girl. He then tells his uncle this and his uncle says that he will start saving up money to buy Peter a car, Peter then sees a poster for a wrestling tournament and the winner wins $1000. Peter then tells his uncle that he will earn the money himself. Peter goes to the wrestling match, wins, then comes back home to find his uncle dead, appearently his uncles car was getting stolen, and he ried to stop the man but he ended up killing him. Peter then gets
Okay, here are some spoilers so watch out. The spider is Arachne ( look up the story of Arachne and Athena if u dont understand). At the begining of the show Peter is giving a Science report on this story. Later on, Peter and his class go to Dr Normans lab and a radioactive super spider that Dr Norman has been working years on escapes and bites Peter. Any way long story short Peter wakes up n has super powers, then he sees Mary Jane riding in a car with one of the bullies and Peter thinks
To those who hate the spider: Ummmmm, say that spider wasn't actually giant. They make it that way so people in the back can see her. Plus, this is probably the spider that bit Peter. She is telling peter that she has bitten him and given him his power for a reason and that he needs to find his true purpose in life. That's just what I think. I think it's awesome. She's a good singer too. P.S. She is telling him the meaning of the colors e wears and that he should stop them from being colors of
i actually kind of like the arachne character, just cuz the original story doesn't really last that long. "With Great power comes great responsibility can only last you so long... you need to have some backstory. but i agree it could have been interpreted better.
@CCRockit there aren't musicals of "everything", actually. So don't say there is.
In fact, about 80% of the musicals on Broadway right now are original, new musicals.
There's maybe five or a little more musicals that were created from something not originally a musical (Legally Blonde, Shrek, Spiderman, the Addams Family.. that's all I can think of.)
So you call that everything?
And usually the musical adaptations create a whole new view and age for the material. I.E. The Addams Family.
@LeLAOve ok, that's a fallacy. The only original musicals that integrate an original plot along with an original score are the book of morman and memphis, and memphis sucks.
Wow...do you not know a joke/sarcasm when you see it?
and at that you didn't even give a valid point, like Joehnlein said "The only original musicals that integrate an original plot along with an original score are the book of morman and memphis"
and maybe i'm the only one with this opinion, maybe i have no culture, or maybe i just simply dont get it, but it kinda bastardizes the series to me. :/
@CRAllain Stupid Batman. He's just a guy in a suit who knows how to use manmade objects in an 'epic way' (yeah right) He doesn't have any supernatural powers! How idiotic. I can't even call him a superhero. That's because he's not! I'm not a hardcore superhero fan here, but I can tell you the heros from the zeros.
The only thing I can complain about with this show... is my only honest complaint.
I went to New York back in March when this was supposed to open. I was a little excited to see the opening to this and guess what? Canceled of course. I was pissed off, who wouldn't be?
Agreed. Madame Web has such an influence on Peter with her visions and advice. It would also give a character with such physical weakness a more emotional impact on the audience. I mean, she's blind, elderly, and nearly immobile. Hearing her belt and use her voice would be epic.
As a New Yorker I've been going to Broadway since 1987. I've seen them all, good ones and bad ones. Without question Spiderman Turn off the Dark is the worst production that has EVER graced Broadway. Diehard New York theater attendees have seen it once. The only people wasting their money on this show now are tourist. Shameful as it is because there are so many wonderful productions going on right now to be seen. Instead of seeing one terrible show take the money and see two GREAT ones.
62 Million Dollars for millions of lawsuits for injuries...62 Millions that probably can't probably not be given back....I liked spiderman better when he was kicking butt, and not singing his heart out.....It is just mind clowing of how many lawsuits have been filed...or soon to be...Yikes...
@AngelPearProduction Spiderman doesn't sing dummy...Peter parker does...you didn't obviously didn't see the show you have no clue what you're talking about.
Thank you Bono for producing this show. I know 62Mil is alot of money but this story is one of my favorite stories since growing up and the Edge's music is just awesome! I can't wait to see this on DVD. NYC is a bit too far from me.
@FloatingAboveClouds dont wanna spoil anything for people who havent seen it yet, but that last scene was worth the price of admission!!!n for anyone out there who was skeptical about a superhero musical, take it from me: u will definately not regret watching this show!!! absolutely amazing. there were even some songs (like "if the world should end") where u even forget that this is a superhero thing. such a beautiful song and moment!! go see it!!!
T.V. Carpio, who's playing Arachne here, injured her neck during a performance on the same day this video was uploaded. She is a replacement for Natalie Mendoza, who suffered a concussion during the first preview performance. I hope this show is injury-free when it reopens.
@bmh4d0k3n it's been injury free since the beginning of this year...you're talking about stuff that happened in Nov and Dec. 2010...get with the program and stop recycling old news
@wolfennyc@wolfennyc Umm ... no, I'm really not. T.V. Carpio WAS injured in March of this year. The other four injuries did happen last year, but this one is more recent. Check out artsbeat.blogs.nytimes.com/2011/03/22/another-spider-man-actress-injured/ . She's number five.
Spidey 2.0 rocks!!!!!!!! Don't listen to the negative reviews!! Story line and aerial stunts are even more incredible. Rest assured, the "Spider-man Curse" has been reversed! Professionally, Super Laundry Bag (Offical Guardian Angel/PR/Guest Relations)
@Sonicdude20th No, because that would require actually reading a comic book, that is Arachne a greek goddess who in the the play is the one who gives spider-man his powers. Yeah...
This is disgusting. This entire show goes against what the true Broadway greats like Rodgers & Hammerstein, Sondheim, and Kander & Ebb worked so hard to build, so theatre could be the art form that it is today. But now this piece of garbage comes along and causes the media to finally give Broadway some publicity, but for all the wrong reasons. This is wrong on so many levels.
@MiniMissMenzel what do u mean?!?!? the play rocks!! u just need to chill and not b so harsh and b a jerk to ppl. the actors worked rlly hard to get this far. it isn't their fault that there were accidents. so just leave it alone and drop it.
@courtneygurlrox18 Guess what? I'm expressing my opinion. You have every right to express yours, just as I have every single right to express mine. This is not a quality piece of musical theatre. I'm not knocking the actors at ALL (who ever said I was?!). I love Jennifer Damiano, and even Reeve Carney is okay. I even have a friend in the ensemble. This trainwreck of a show was caused by the creative team. Julie Taymor, Bono, the Edge, the producers, etc. are responsible for this terrible show.
@soukkiy It's funny, I'm not quite sure what exactly I like about Jennifer. Her voice is mediocre at best, and her acting is so-so (but it's hard to tell, having only seen her in Next to Normal). But I love N2N, and I love how all of the actors and the creatives worked so hard together to create a truly magical piece of theatre (unlike another musical playing at the Foxwoods Theatre.). So I suppose I love her simply because she played Natalie. I'm not a Jenn fangirl, but I respect her work.
@MiniMissMenzel "Unlike another musical playing the Foxwoods"? What do you mean by this? A previous tenant in that theatre? What show are we talking about? Don't be hasty...there are a couple dead wrong answers.
I saw it four times.. it had changed a little each time getting better and better each time! I really want to see it again and can't wait for the sound track to come out!
Saw this show twice!! First time, it was the night that Chris Tierney fell. SCARIEST THING EVER. We got a refund and saw it again, and it was amazing. I met these guys, Jenn Damiano, and a few others @ the stage door. IT WAS GREAT.
@josep226 i saw it once like friday and i want to just watch it over and over again it was so good!!! BUT im from iowa and cant just drive 24 hours to new york to watch it again:(

Spidey 2.0 rocks!!!!!!!! Don't listen to the negative reviews!! Story line and aerial stunts are even more incredible. Rest assured, the "Spider-man Curse" has been reversed! Professionally, Super Laundry Bag (Offical Guardian Angel/PR/Guest Relations)

This is disgusting. This entire show goes against what the true Broadway greats like Rodgers & Hammerstein, Sondheim, and Kander & Ebb worked so hard to build, so theatre could be the art form that it is today. But now this piece of garbage comes along and causes the media to finally give Broadway some publicity, but for all the wrong reasons. This is wrong on so many levels.

@MiniMissMenzel what do u mean?!?!? the play rocks!! u just need to chill and not b so harsh and b a jerk to ppl. the actors worked rlly hard to get this far. it isn't their fault that there were accidents. so just leave it alone and drop it.

@courtneygurlrox18 Guess what? I'm expressing my opinion. You have every right to express yours, just as I have every single right to express mine. This is not a quality piece of musical theatre. I'm not knocking the actors at ALL (who ever said I was?!). I love Jennifer Damiano, and even Reeve Carney is okay. I even have a friend in the ensemble. This trainwreck of a show was caused by the creative team. Julie Taymor, Bono, the Edge, the producers, etc. are responsible for this terrible show.
MiniMissMenzel 10 months ago
@MiniMissMenzel agreed. but what is it you like about damiano. i just don't get it with her.

@soukkiy It's funny, I'm not quite sure what exactly I like about Jennifer. Her voice is mediocre at best, and her acting is so-so (but it's hard to tell, having only seen her in Next to Normal). But I love N2N, and I love how all of the actors and the creatives worked so hard together to create a truly magical piece of theatre (unlike another musical playing at the Foxwoods Theatre.). So I suppose I love her simply because she played Natalie. I'm not a Jenn fangirl, but I respect her work.

@MiniMissMenzel "Unlike another musical playing the Foxwoods"? What do you mean by this? A previous tenant in that theatre? What show are we talking about? Don't be hasty...there are a couple dead wrong answers.

Absolutely nothing compares to seeing this show on stage. Video can't capture how amazing the stage/sets are.
Saw it earlier this month and loved it! The cast members were all talented and super nice!
Hoping to see it again after the changes have been made. I think they'll all be for the best!

So cool! By far the best musicals I know were despised in the beginning by the overly-critical. Les Mis, LOTR Musical, and now Turn Off the Dark.
