Cuccioli will begin performances Aug. 7 as Norman Osborn/The Green Goblin at the Foxwoods Theatre. He will succeed Drama Desk nominee Patrick Page, who will play his final performance Aug. 5 and will be seen as Comte de Guiche in Roundabout Theatre Company's upcoming production of Cyrano De Bergerac.

"There aren't a lot of actors out there who can pull off utterly likable and totally terrifying at the same time, and so we feel extremely lucky that the great Robert Cuccioli has agreed to take on this role," said producers Michael Cohl and Jeremiah J. Harris in a statement.

"Of course, this announcement is bittersweet for all of us, because throughout the extraordinary history of Spider-Man: Turn Off The Dark, Patrick Page has been there every step of the way – as a mentor, cheerleader, spokesperson, company leader and consummate performer," added Cohl and Harris. "We are, of course, sorry to see him go, but will all be cheering him on in Cyrano." 

Cuccioli, who received the Drama Desk and Outer Critics Circle awards for his performance in Jekyll & Hyde, made his Broadway debut as Inspector Javert in Les Miserables. His Off-Broadway credits include Temporary Help, Enter The Guardsman, And The World Goes 'Round (1991 Outer Critics Circle Award), Gigi, The Rothschilds, Jacques Brel Is Alive And Well And Living In Paris and Dietrich & Chevalier.

Spider-Man: Turn Off The Dark features music and lyrics by Bono and The Edge, direction by Philip William McKinley and a book co-written by Julie Taymor, Glen Berger and Roberto Aguirre-Sacasa.
