“Spider-Man: Turn Off the Dark” is the name of a musical being developed for Broadway at the moment. Directed by Julie Taymor (“Across the Universe“, “The Lion King”) and written by Taymor and Glen Berger, it will feature words and music by Bono and the Edge. It will be interesting to see how this works out. Will they add all the words? Or will the writer inject some dramatic key points? Writing songs and writing a musical are two different ball games, although I’m sure Bono is up for the challenge.

By the way, if you think you have what it takes, the production is currently holding auditions in the US between now and May. Check the website for details.

Incidentally, how come you write Batman in one word and Spider-Man with a hyphen? Any ideas, let me know.
