In Spider-Man, according to producers, "Peter Parker's ordinary teenage life takes a turn for the extraordinary when he's bitten by a genetically altered spider and suddenly finds himself endowed with incredible superpowers. Parker quickly learns that with great power comes great responsibility as he tries to juggle the demands of high school and home life, while battling the Green Goblin and his band of super villains as they try to take down New York City and destroy everything Peter holds dear – including the beautiful girl-next-door, Mary Jane Watson."
The musical plays Monday-Tuesday and Thursday at 7:30 PM, Friday-Saturday at 8 PM, Saturday at 2 PM and Sunday at 1 PM and 7 PM.
