Spider-Man: a dangerous musical
NEW YORK – The curtain will go up again Thursday on "Spider-Man: Turn Off the Dark" after the producers of the accident-plagued Broadway musical agreed to new safety precautions to prevent another fall like the one that left a stuntman seriously injured.
The state Department of Labor said it is satisfied the producers of the $65 million musical have made the necessary adjustments.
Wednesday night's performance was canceled so that the cast and crew could rehearse the new precautions, which include a requirement that a second person ensure that the harnesses used by performers during the show's high-flying stunts have been put on properly. More here.
