Spider-Man, Turn Off the Dark faced plenty of challenges on its way to Broadway, but you won't hear any complaints from Patrick Page. His role, the Green Goblin, once died at the end of Act One.

No stranger to playing Broadway bad guys, Page has brought his signature deep voice to trouble-makers like The Lion King's Scar and the title character in Dr. Seuss' How the Grinch Stole Christmas. Shorthly after Spider-Man's opening night, Broadway.com caught up with Page to talk about the thrill of working with first-time Broadway composers Bono and The Edge, welcoming Julie Taymor back to the Foxwoods Theatre and how he gets to channel Lady Gaga onstage.

The show’s original director Julie Taymor ...
