Spider-Man Musical Sends Yet Another Actor to the Hospital

The cast of Spider-Adult male: Turn Dispatch The Dark are getting injured with frightening regularity.

I was happening Twitter last nighttime when I ran across the following from Brian Lynch, who was at a prevue performance for Spider-Man: Turn Off the Dark: "Stopped pint-size near end. Someone took nasty drop away. Screaming. 911 called. Atomic number 102 idea what happened, kicked audience out." Lynch quickly followed with "None joke. No explanation. MJ and Spidey took what seemed to beryllium a planned fall under the represent pit. Then we heard MJ screech." Lynch was one of the first to report the latest injury to befall a cast appendage of the accident-prone musical.

About seven minutes before the end of the show, the blood line holding one of the prove's Wanderer-Men (prospective player Christopher Tierney) appeared to snap, dropping him about 10 feet into an raw scar on the poin. Atomic number 2 was rushed to Bellevue Hospital Center. After the accident, the house lights came up, and an announcement informed the audience first-class honours degree that the performance was delayed, then that it was canceled. The Freshly York Times ArtsBeat interviewed members of the hearing, one of whom painted a pretty scary picture of the optical phenomenon, saying "You heard screams…you heard a charwoman screaming and sobbing."

Actress Natalie Mendoza, who was herself broken in one of the musical's first previews, tweeted, "Delight beg off with me for my friend Chris, my superhero who quietly inspires me everyday with his spirit. A light in my heart went dim tonight," which seems to confirm, as atomic number 102 formalised statement has yet, that Tierney is the injured party.

ArtsBeat quoted the statement discharged past Actor's Equity, the union for theatrical actors and stage managers, saying, "Actors' Equity Association is working with management and the Department of Labor to ensure that performances volition non resume until back-up safety measures are in place." I'm sure the two remaining uninjured members of the cast appreciate that.
