Pippin (10/26/14) US Tour
Leading Player: Sasha Allen, Pippin: Matthew James Thomas, Charles: John Rubinstein, Berthe: Andrea Martin, Catherine: Kristine Reese, Fastrada: Sabrina Harper, Lewis: Callan Bergmann, Theo: Lucas Schultz The first capture of the new US Tour. Sasha is a very sassy Leading Player with great vocals, and Matthew’s performance feels fresh and new after his Broadway run. The audience has a lot of energy, and it made for great performances all around, especially during the interactive bits like No Time at All. This is a perfect capture no blackouts, no obstruction, and only a bit of washout in the wide shots. It’s filmed in 16:9, with a mix of wides, mediums, and close-ups. The sound is excellent. Includes curtain call and playbill scans.

Norm Lewis, Audra McDonald, David Alan Grier, Phillip Boykin, Nikki Renee Daniels, Joshua Henry, Christopher Innvar, Bryonha Marie Parham, NaTasha Yvette Williams. Beautiful capture with no obstructions of this nicely reworked classic. Norm and Audra are of course sensational, as this the rest of the cast

Prettybelle (1982) New York
Angela Landsbury. In 1974 this extremely controversial show struggled for many months in Boston, only to close before ever making it to Broadway.

The Producers (7/28/12) Hollywood Bowl Concert, Los Angeles, CA
Richard Kind, Jesse Tyler Ferguson, Gary Beach, Roger Bart, Dane Cook, Rebecca Romijn. Excellent capture of this year's Hollywood Bowl production. Three songs were cut from the production: "Never Say Good Luck on Opening Night", "Where Did We Go Right?", and "Betrayed"; stage is filmed directly, not the screens, so the action is followed well with a mix of wides, mediums, and close-ups. The first minute of the show is missing, and the next few minutes are a bit shaky with scattered blackouts, but after "The King of Broadway" it settles and the majority of the show is captured nicely, filmed in 16:9, and the sound excellent; includes curtain call. *Two discs, full menus with scene selection
