In a recent interview with the Wall Street Journal, Spider-Man: Turn Off The Dark producer Michael Cohl stated that he plans to tour the $75 million Broadway musical to arenas across the U.S.  Spider-Man: Turn Off The Dark, which ended its Broadway run Jan. 4, was previously announced for a Las Vegas sit-down engagement following its three-year New York run. Cohl states that Las Vegas is no longer the goal, and that the show will instead embark on an arena tour in late 2015 or winter 2016 in order to reach larger audiences. “I think Spider-Man is a pop culture rock show that was meant to be in arenas,” Cohl said.
