"Spider-Man: Turn Off the Dark" cast in talks to have massive walk-out before show's debut in June

NYPOST.com: "The rats may soon be fleeing that sinking ship known as 'Spider-Man: Turn Off the Dark.'
With the opening postponed for a sixth time so that Bono and his new team can overhaul the embattled $65 million musical, many exhausted and demoralized cast members are ready to call it quits, production sources say.
Dancers and chorus members are on six-month contracts, which expire at the end of May.

This is always fun watching this show have its problems come up. First was all the injuries that occurred and now the latest thing happening that the cast wanting to leave. I saw the show and I thought that it did need a major over hall and needed possibly a new direction to go in. I know that this show will be the show people will just go to see people flying through the sky and not for the talent onstage. They will be there for the technology that is moving the people around the theater. I hope that this show will work it out and make it one of the shows that runs for many years.
