Synopsis: | Seattle's Jose Bold and NYC's The Tank present Spidermann, a hastily-constructed abstract musical that will open and close the two nights before Spider-Man: Turn Off the Dark opens on Broadway. As an alternative to Broadway, Spidermann was devised, written, and thrown together in three weeks at 0.0000092% the budget. Instead of straightforward narrative, Spidermann threads together elements of the original comic book story, references to the buzz-heavy Broadway debacle, songs stripped down to their essential core, and dreamlike video sequences to create a new mythology in an art-house style. The result is an unusual alternate-universe story of a lost man struggling with identity and reality to find love. Featuring the characters Spidermann, Peter Parkre, Mary Jane Taymor, Radioactive Steve Winwood, and more. Jose Bold is the performance moniker of Seattle artist John Osebold. Jose Bold's body of work is music-based, but leans heavily on theater and video. As such, Spidermann, while technically a musical, wheels off into non-traditional corners of music, theater, video, and even a bit of dance. | |||||
