Universal City, California, May 23, 2002— After crawling 50 feet down a stone wall to the entrance of his new theme park home, Spider-Man brushed a giant spiderweb aside today and, accompanied by a live over-sized tarantula, greeted scores of Los Angeles schoolchildren, real-life spider experts and the first audience for “Spider-Man Rocks!,” a rock `n’ roll stunt show opening this weekend as a regular attraction at Universal Studios Hollywood.

A 20-minute live performance of adrenaline-pumping adventure showcased in a 1,500-seat venue, “Spider-Man Rocks!” features a dynamic ensemble cast of dancing, singing and web-wielding actors in a performance highlighted by elaborate stage pyrotechnics and high-flying stunts that propel Spider-Man more than 30 feet above the audience.

With music, dance and eye-dazzling action, the show recounts the comic book tale of Peter Parker. The story recounts his schoolboy crush on the beautiful Mary Jane Watson and the infamous bite from a genetically altered spider that forever changed the high school student into one of the world’s greatest living superhero legends. Flashy costumes fashioned á la comic-book chic in a palate of vibrant primary colors and a backdrop of larger-than-life sets coupled with an eclectic musical score and rhythmic choreography help spring “Spider-Man Rocks!” vividly to life.
