| So this isnt like flying over sunset that really had no audience tryout. And Scarlett pimpernel famously revised the show during the broadway run a year or so after opening. | |

| There were 2 very different versions of Spider-Man: Turn Off the Dark. Version #1 ran over 5 months but never officially opened. I saw both. I found #2 pretty enjoyable. I saw the original version of Pimpernel on Broadway. The book was a little clunky, but it's still my favorite Wildhorn show, especially the score. |

| I only saw the first version. I still think it should have been a 90 minute show. After the battle above the audience occurred, there was really nothing compelling to keep the show going. | |

| Some of my New York friends kept telling me, "Don't go, it's terrible", regarding version #1. But after 5 months, I had to see for myself what it was like before it was revised. I bought a $30 rush ticket, which was easy to get, and was seated on the main floor in something like the 15th row or so. Act 1 was pretty good, but I couldn't figure out exactly what was going on in Act 2. Even though it never officially opened, a lot of critics finally reviewed it. The actors at the stage door told me some pretty funny stuff. |
