Spider-Man: Turn Off the Dark officially opens on Jan. 11, but opening night on Sunday didn't go very smoothly.

But all of those "difficulties" have not been worked out yet as the show reportedly had to be stopped five times on Sunday during stunt work that had actors suspended in the air with harnesses.

Right before the end of Act I, Spider-Man was left dangling above the audience. "Crew members, standing on the stage, spent 45 seconds trying to grab Spider-Man by the foot, as the audience laughed and oohed," The New York Times reports.
