#300: Spider-Man: Turn Off the Dark

Take to the stage as we cover Spidey’s infamous Broadway rock musical – from the myth of Arachne to U2 songs to Goblin’s defeat by piano! Rise above the disastrous production of boys falling from the sky and the clashing egos of this freak company as we figure out how Turn Off the Dark actually works as a Spider-Man adaptation. We’re bouncing off the walls to sing about the inconsistent designs, the strangest Sinister Six you’ll ever see, a Southern Elvis-impersonating Green Goblin, a spectacle of wirework, cut songs about shoes, a deep connection with The Lion King, and much more until that curtain call!SourcesSong of Spider-Man: The Inside Story of the Most Controversial Musical in Broadway History by Glen BergerFortune & Glory: The Musical Reveals the Untold Story Behind Spider-Man - Turn Off the Dark on IGNHow a Spider-Man musical became a theatrical disaster on BBC Website⁠ | ⁠Patreon⁠ | ⁠Discord⁠Part of The Glitterjaw Queer Podcast CollectiveContact us: @WallopingWebPod on ⁠Bluesky⁠ and ⁠Instagram⁠Email: ⁠[email protected]⁠Theme song features: ⁠“Resonance (Cyan & Ladybot Remix)” by HOME⁠ | ⁠License (CC BY 3.0)
