The have a long preview period. Lets hope they iron alot out. People shouldn't be paying full price for this kind of nonsense.
I love that people seem to be tweeting DURING the show. That helps matters.
I got a text from a friend who is at the show...convo as follows
Me: Intermission yet?
HIM: No...txt you when it is...
A bazzilion years latter...
HIM: No words...absolutely no words...
ME: Is it over??!
HIM: NO! Act 1 just finished!
ME:...wtf?
ME: Good? Bad? So-So?
HIM: So-So teetering on Bad...
ME: Yikes...I want details when show is over...call me later
Then he just texted me
HIM: Act 2 is not going any better...
ME: Tech problems?
No answer yet
I wish people weren't texting during the show.
Well when there are HUGE delays in the show to fix stuff you gotta do something lol
The 60 minute preview makes TV Carpio appear to be playing Mary Jane.
favorite tweet so far "WSFRandy Watching @Bono disgrace #spiderman"
and this can't be a good sign "TomHTweets #spiderman #u2 best song of first act IMO is Rise Above. Waiting for Act2, start is delayed. Rope fell on audience stage right end of act1"
Hmm wonder if that what he meant by "not going better?"
A rope fell on the audience???
I think it means stage right.... that means audience right.
Phew...so nothing's dropping on innocent people?
Umm.. if a rope truly fell on an audience member you have to assume someone is going to file a lawsuit and that means Spidey won't be swinging for a while or ever again, no???
Was that Julie throwing the rope into the audience?

It will be interesting.
The Live Theatre Experience class from my school is seeing this on Wednesday, I need to pester the professor to see if there are any extra tickets.
Well, SOMEBODY had to throw the audience a rope.

Do people have anything better to do with their lives than rant about a show whose premise was rather stupid to start with?
I wonder if the "Super Hero Fashion Show" is still in the show.
"daniel_choi: lol apparently spiderman is on it's 5th hold tonight. jennifer damiano was stuck in the rafters -.- and reeve couldn't stop swinging. lol???"
according to twitter, an audience member has already asked for a refund during the 5th technical stop...i guess the thrill is starting to wear off for real...
There is always a Fashion show in a Taymor production. It is the moment when we are to sit back, nod and acknowledge her genius!
So what is going to happen when people realize the show has no ending? Or maybe they will just assume it is another tech break?
show seems to be over, 3 hours and 44 minutes after it started
Seems to be over or is over? Might be hard to tell
Now let the fun begin!
It's over. A friend just sent me an e-mail.
