Broadway’s Spider-Man, Turn Off the Dark will open at the Hilton Theatre Feb. 18, 2010. Preview performances begin Jan. 16.

The musical follows the Marvel comic book tale of shy teenage Peter Parker, who is bitten by a genetically altered spider and ends up with superpowers.

The play will feature new music and lyrics by Bono and The Edge.

The $40 million effort will reportedly be the most expensive Broadway production ever!
