Phantom Of The Opera (1/9/88) Broadway
Sarah Brightman, Michael Crawford, Steve Barton. RARE! Filmed on the first night of previews! Unfortunately, the picture suffers greatly from generational loss, but the audio is still very good. It's interesting to enjoy the show with such an enthusiastic audience, as this show was highly anticipated back in 1988. D
Phantom of the Opera (4/1988) Broadway
Michael Crawford, Sarah Brightman, Steve Barton & OBC
The audio is very good quality (considering the age of this recording). This is a great performance, however the picture is quite dark and there are not many close close-ups. There are a few jumps and some entire scenes cut out such as Magical Lasso. There is a jump from end of Prima Donna to Il Muto and also from The Phantom's exit in Masquerade to the 2nd Notes scene. The "Before the Premiere" scene is also cut, when it jumps from the end of the Graveyard scene to Don Juan. There is also a minute or two jump between the Labyrinth scene to Beyond the Lake. About 85% complete. C

Hugh Panaro (FINAL performance), Sandra Joseph, Tim Martin Gleason, James Romick (u/s), George Lee Andrews, Anne Runolfsson, Marilyn Caskey, Larry Wayne Morbitt, Kara Klein. Hugh and Sandra give electric performances, and the audience is quite over-enthusiastic. Great video! (2 DVDs)
Phantom The Las Vegas Experience (8/28/2006) Las Vegas
Anthony Crivello, Elizabeth Loyacano, Tim Martin Gleason, Elena Jeanne Batman, Lawson Skala, John Wolfe, Rebecca Spencer, Larry Wayne Morbitt, Brianne Kelly Morgan.

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. In 1982 most of the original cast gathered to make a recording. This video captures a rehearsal for that recording. Cast is sitting around a piano in a semi-circle. C

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
