But I felt the first version should have been cut to 90 minutes and end with the battle in the air. It was dumb to have that as act 1 finale since that was the climax that everyone was there for. I did like the weaving effect, but the Greek plot line was unnecessary and I doubt many of the audience really got the Greek chorus aspect either. It should have been dumbed down to 90 minute kid spectacle with a few catchy tunes.

And had a great time at the show. Time again to plug The Song of Spider-Man by Glen Berger which is still my favorite theater book. It’s a great fast read and fascinating insight into the personalities of everyone involved.
