So how long will everyone have to wait to see the completed version of Spider Man 2.0? I don't mean whatever it is that will be put on stage after the original direction is discarded. I mean, the version of Spider Man that is considered complete enough to be called a completed version of the new version? Of course, they claim it's one month of previews, but we shouldn't rush it.
I mean, heck, the original version of Turn Off The Dark is still in previews. It will cease to exist in previews.
Let's keep in mind that this is just like painting. One would never judge a painting before the painter felt the painting was ready. If the painting that you are intending to review was previously painted by a different painter, you should still give the new painter the same amount of time that you gave the painter of the original painting. Even if you already paid to see the incomplete painting of a different painter with the same title hung in the same gallery, using largely the same imagery, you shouldn't think twice about paying for another ticket to see the new painting based on the old one, painted by a different painter, using largely the same imagery, with the same title.
It will open in October. Which year, I'm not sure.
ReplyDeleteI kind of like the idea of Spiderman perpetually in production but never performed for the public. I feel like if the thing becomes a completely hideous, overpriced monstrosity (exponentially moreso than it is right now), the waste of time and money and talent will hasten Cthulhu's awakening, which will make things a lot more interesting. And give me something to write about in my next play.
ReplyDeleteIf you're charging $150 for tickets, you are not in previews anymore.
