Joe Allen's Wall

There is a wall in Joe Allen's West 46th Street restaurant that commemorates Broadway flops, among them notorious failures like Breakfast At Tiffany's and Carey. Joe just refused to hang a poster of Spider-Man: Turn Off the Dark in the restaurant's dining room. Although Spider-Man will have racked up losses of up to $60 million by the time it closes on January 4, the show does not qualify because it ran for three years. I can say with pride that one my shows, Dance Of The Vampires, has made it to Joe Allen's wall. It's no small achievement to have licked the mighty Spider Man.
