WASHINGTON — Add Broadway producer to the long list of George Santos’ fabrications.
While running for Congress in 2021, Santos told some potential donors he was a producer on the musical "Spider-Man: Turn Off The Dark," according to people familiar with the discussions. That show, which ran from 2011 to 2014, was an ill-fated production that lost tens of millions of dollars and suffered from technical mishaps and actor injuries.
The lead producer, Michael Cohl, denied Santos’ involvement, saying through an assistant that he wasn’t a producer on the musical. Santos’ name also never appeared in the playbills for the show.
