Among the many problems delaying the opening of the Broadway musical, “Spider-Man, Turn Off the Dark” is yet another hindrance. This time the actress set to play Mary Jane has dropped out. In a statement made by the producers of “Spider-Man” they said that Evan Rachel Wood dropped out of the musical due to a scheduling conflict.

Just 15 months after the announcement was made that she would be starring as Mary Jane, Wood made her departure public. The statement made by the producer, Michael Cohl, made it clear that Evan Rachel Wood was not required to stay with the musical, and that a search for a new Mary Jane was in progress. He also announced that the opening of the show would be delayed until later this year.

The creators and producers of “Spider-Man” have began to worry that other cast and crew members would also be taking on other projects and would therefore drop out of the musical. Cast members include Reeve Carney, who is set to star as Peter Parker and his alter ego, Spider-Man, and Tony Award winner Alan Cumming.

No dates have been set for rehearsals, preview performances, or an opening night. But you can sign up to be alerted when tickets are on sale.

Baseball’s big 2010 Opening Day is less than one month away. Spring training is already underway in order to prepare the New York Yankees for their 2010 return to the field.

Opening Day is always a big event for every baseball team, but this year is particularly special for the Yankees. This is the first home game after winning last years’ World Series Championship. This season also marks the final season of Derek Jeter’s contract with New York.

Fans of the Yankees are hoping on back to back World Series Titles, and in early February the co-chairman of the Yankees spoke highly of their chances. Hank Steinbrenner said this strong sense of belief came from the changes to the roster in the offseason.

The New York Yankees baseball franchise has been providing fans with amazing ball games since 1923. With 27 World Series Championships to their name, the Yankees are now known as the most successful team in baseball history.

The New York Yankees will have their opening day game on April 13, 2010 at Yankee Stadium against the Los Angeles Angels of Anaheim.

The last week in February made for a slow week at many Broadway box offices. The New York City area has experienced many heavy snowstorms this winter which made ticket sales decline for many musicals and plays on the stages of Broadway.

Many plays in previews such as “Looped,”and “Next Fall,” had a slow week in sales. Some of the Major musicals experienced a drop of 30% or more in their weekly box office grosses. “West Side Story,” “Mamma Mia!,” “The Lion King,” and “Chicago” were a few out of the many musicals that were affected by the harsh snow storms in the NYC area.

However, there was one musical that did actually do well at the box offices. “A Little Night Music” is a musical revival which had a return from its star, Catherine Zeta-Jones.

Broadway’s slow end to February grossed a total of 14.2 million as opposed to the $17.8 million grossed the week before.

Now that the snow storms are over, it is your chance to come enjoy the beautiful New York City weather and see a Broadway play such as Phantom of the Opera, Jersey Boys, American Idiot, Wicked, and more!

The Addams Family, featuring the strange and beloved characters, is coming to Broadway! It is beginning previews tonight at the Lunt-Fontanne Theatre. The Broadway production will have its official Opening Night on April 8, 2010.

The Addams family was created by legendary cartoonist Charles Addams. He is most known for his creation of the characters of the Addams family that formed the television show. The characters existed separately, but were never collectively called The Addams Family, until the TV show was created.

The Broadway musical production is based on this wonderfully weird family that is put to the test when outsiders come to dinner. This puts the whole family in the position to have a night that will change them forever.

This new show was created by Rick Elice and Marshall Brickman, most known for creating Jersey Boys, with music and lyrics by Andrew Lippa. The Addams Family will be directed by Phelim McDermott and Julian Crouch.

Talented actors and two-time Tony winners, Nathan Lane and Bebe Neuwirth are to star as Gomez and Morticia Addams. Joining them will be Krysta Rodriguez as Wednesday, Adam Riegler as Pugsly, Jackie Hoffman as Grandmama, Terrence Mann as Mal Beineke, and Kevin Chamberlin as Uncle Fester.

After a two week Olympic break the New Jersey Devils returned to the ice with a victory. On Tuesday night the Devils beat the San Jose Sharks 4-3. The game featured a total of 13 players who participated in the Olympic games, three of which were from the devils.

The Devils’ captain, Jamie Langenbrunner was a part of the USA silver medal winning team as was Zach Parise. In the first quarter of Tuesday’s game Parise was praised during a video tribute to all olympians because he scored the tying goal in the last minute of Canada’s win over USA. New Jersey’s goalie, Martin Brodeur also played in the Olympics, and earned the gold medal while playing on the Canadian team.

In the first game after the Olympics, Zach Parise made two assists, and his teammate Jamie Langenbrunner made one assist as well. In the beginning of the game Martin Brodeur barely even got a chance to show his stuff. The Sharks were unable to get past Brodeur until the third period where they made three goals in under three minutes. But those three goals were not enough to surpass the Devils.

The New Jersey Devils will suit up and hit the ice up next on Friday, March 5, 2010 against the Calgary Flames.
