'Spider-Man' Divides N.Y. Critics

Backstage: "It is the most expensive show in the history of Broadway and it has not even officially opened. Despite packed previews and big box-office success, the producers of 'Spider-Man: Turn Off the Dark' have delayed the show's opening date for a fifth time, pushing from Feb. 7 to March 15. Lead Producer Michael Cohl attributed the postponement to the show's complex stunts and effects, saying it 'is 10 times more complicated to tech than anything else,' and assuring theatergoers that 'this will be the final postponement.'
