you know, we'll also see how the integration is between julie taymor's version, the first version, andrsion that stripped away a lot of what she brought. it is sort of melding, you know, d.n.a.-1 and d.n.a.-2. do they fit together? does it feel like just sort of a monster. >> brown: what is riding on it... going back to the money here. the $70 million spent and counting. you said crowds come but some of them are paying discounted tickets. have they been making money? what do they need to do to earn that back? what is the hope at this point for how long a show like this has to run to earn its money? >> here's the thing, jeff. only about 20 to 25% of new broadway shows ever turn a profit on broadway. most of those shows that are musicals are about 10 to 15 million dollars. spiderman is a 70 million dollar show. so it's got some odds already against it. it's going to have to run probably for two, three, four years doing business along the lines of "wicked" or the "lion king" which have been the hottest shows in town for many years. they really do need the reviews to some extent. some peop

. >> reporter: also there, ousted director julie taymore. >> it's exciting. >> reporter: is it?s. the whole point is without this cast and the belief in the show, it would have stopped. so i feel very proud about what's up there. >> reporter: while the critics weren't thrilled saying "spider-man failed to soar" the audience was easier please. >> spectacular. >> very good. >> it was a great show. >> reporter: at curtain call the beleaguered cast received a standing ovation and probably more than a few sighs of relief. as far as producers are concerned, this production was a rousing success, no major hiccups, most importantly, no accidents. but with production costs running more than $1 million each week, it's going to take years of packed houses to break even. erica? >> michelle miller in times square this morning, thanks. people will go. that's the thing. >> it's been a great draw. >> the previews of the original one. >> not so great. >> i'd like to see the second one. everybody in the theater said we love it, we love spider-man. >> the poor actors who had to take heat, coveted
