SPIDER-MAN, TURN OFF THE DARK follows the story of teenager Peter Parker, whose unremarkable life is turned upside-down when he's bitten by a genetically altered spider and wakes up the next morning clinging to his bedroom ceiling. This bullied science-geek suddenly endowed with incredible powers soon learns, however, that with great power comes great responsibility as villains put both his physical strength and strength of character to the test. SPIDER-MAN aims to thrill audiences through a unique entertainment experience in ways never-before-dreamed-possible in live theater.

Though the reviews have been somewhat less than favorable for the $65 million giant, sales have been strong and the production opened on June 14th, 2011. For more information on SPIDER-MAN visit http://spidermanonbroadway.marvel.com/.

Reeve Carney - who is also the eponymous frontman of the band which plays onstage during the show - sat down recently with MTV to talk about the show's first released single, playing in his band versus being on Broadway, and more. Watch the video!
