The Spidey Project Adds Performance, Announces Cast

People’s Improv Theatre will offer an additional performance of the new show, The Spidey Project, at People’s Improv Theatre, which will now play on Monday, March 14 at 8pm and 10pm. The performances will be offered free-of-charge and tickets are available at the company’s website (www.thepit-nyc.com).


Humorist and writer Justin Moran, working with writer Jon Roufaeal, composer Adam Podd, and musical director Doug Katsaros, has set himself the challenge of writing, rehearsing, and performing a fully realized musical based on the character Spiderman in under 30 days with a budget of $0. The performances on the 14th will be the culmination of this self-imposed challenge.

The cast will include Liz Bachman, Michael Lutton, *Ryan Nelson, Claire Neumann, Travis Nilan, Louie Pearlman, Robin Rothman, and Jon Roufaeal.

Moran is a resident writer and performer with two improv comedy groups at The Magnet Theatre. In addition, he wrote the book and lyrics to POPE! The Musical, which was seen in the New York International Fringe Festival in 2010.
