Broadway's 'Spider-Man' Postponed Until March

STEVE INSKEEP, Host:

And today's last word in business is about another spectacle that's getting off to a slow start. The word is "Spider-Man" delayed again.

RENEE MONTAGNE, Host:

That could be the new name for the Broadway musical "Spider-Man." The show was supposed to open in December, but the accident-plagued production has been postponed and postponed and yesterday, producers delayed the opening yet again. It's now set for mid-March.

INSKEEP: Now, it's not as if the show isn't pulling in some money already. "Spider-Man's" been in previews. That's when producers can still make changes to the show. And the previews have been packed with theatergoers who are paying about $65 - up to $275 - to see the show. Transcript provided by NPR, Copyright NPR.
