New Yorker Sends Up Spider-Man on Broadway Woes

Posted by Shirley Brady on January 10, 2011 01:00 PM

The New Yorker cover this week spoofs the recent injuries that marred the debut of Disney/Marvel's Spider-Man production on Broadway before the holidays.

The good news: the production appears to be back on track, grossing $6 million during 29 previews and becoming the highest-grossing production on Broadway last week, knocking Wicked from top spot.

Its injured Spidey stuntman, Christopher Tierney, is also back on his feet, though not flying through the air (at least just yet).
