TUTANKHAMUN AND
THE GOLDEN AGE OF THE PHARAOHS marks the first time in a generation
that a collection of artifacts from King Tut’s tomb has visited the New York City.
Visitors from around the globe have the rare opportunity to view the boy king’s
treasures in this popular exhibition, which has drawn more than 6 million visitors
and critical acclaim.
From a chair he used as a child to splendid gold burial items such as his crown
and statuary, King Tut’s story comes alive in this powerful presentation. With
an additional 80 artifacts representing his family members, the opportunity is
ripe to learn about life in Ancient Egypt and the years preceding King Tut’s reign
during the “Golden Age” - the height of power, wealth and artistic achievement.
Book your group tickets soon! New York City will be your final opportunity to
see this exhibition in North America.

Drawing from over forty years of Marvel comic books for inspiration, SPIDER-MAN spins a new take on the mythic tale of a young man propelled from a modest rowhouse in Queens to the skyscraping spire of the Chrysler Building, the bustling offices of the Daily Bugle, through the dizzying canyons of Manhattan, to new vistas never before seen. The musical follows the story of teenager Peter Parker, whose unremarkable life is turned upside-down—literally—when he’s bitten by a genetically altered spider and wakes up the next morning clinging to his bedroom ceiling. This bullied science-geek—suddenly endowed with astonishing powers—soon learns, however, that with great power comes great responsibility as villains test not only his physical strength but also his strength of character. Spider-Man’s battles will hurtle the audience through an origin story both recognizable and unexpected--yielding new characters as well as familiar faces--until a final surprising confrontation casts a startling new light on this hero’s journey.
Directed by Tony® Award-winner Julie Taymor with 22-time Grammy® Award-winning Bono and The Edge creating new music and lyrics, SPIDER-MAN will be written by Julie Taymor and Glen Berger. Julie Taymor is best known as director of one of the most successful musicals in Broadway history, Disney’s The Lion King and the film Across The Universe. Bono and The Edge are half of one of the most popular rock bands of all time, U2, who will be making their Broadway debut with SPIDER-MAN.
