B (89 recordings)

Trading notes: Black & white picture with slight static but great clear sound and good picture for its age. Do not confuse with 1955 production with mostly the same cast.

Master's notes: Shot around a pillar

Master's notes: A great recording of this rarely performed musical. This is an incredibly difficult venue to film in and I believe this is the closest to a best capture you would get in this theatre with this configuration. Filmed over heads with some focus issues. Recording includes the curtain call and a shot of the outside of the theatre. Filmed in 4K. External audio used.

Master's notes: Fantastic capture of this brand new Johnny Cash jukebox musical! Shot above and around one head that is often visible/noticeable but almost never obscures action. Shot in a fantastic mix of close-ups and mediums, with some wides thrown in but not common due to the small staging. Some wandering, shaking, and re-adjusting throughout. I'm certain that they're going to try to take this to Broadway, considering who all is attached and involved.

Trading notes: Pretty much a perfect capture of this show. The speaker obstructs the view once or twice. A head is sometimes in the frame but doesn’t block anything important. You are sometimes seeing the back of an actor’s head due to the blocking. This is temporary as there is a revolve and the actors play to the entire theatre when they can. Recording includes the curtain call and a shot of the outside of the theatre.

Trading notes: Recorded stage performance. Originally released to cinemas, and later streamed on Playbill for charity. May be of varying quality depending on where it was captured from (see screenshots). A camrip filmed on a PSP also exists. https://www.imdb.com/title/tt8593814/?ref_=ttrel_rel_tt

Trading notes: Canadian film directed and screen adaptation by Érik Canuel based on William Luce's 1996 play of the same name.

Trading notes: Directed by Tim Waddell with Musical Direction by Stacy McDonald.

My notes: My format matches what everyone else has. But it's significantly smaller than the ~1.5 gigs in media info. So the most common version might be a rip

Trading notes: Good capture of this one night only concert! One head obstructs the far left.

Trading notes: Starts towards the end of the opening number. Shot almost entirely in mediums and close-ups. This is a production of the revised edition of Bat Boy, which features lots of changes from the original. Songs were cut, added, replaced, and rewritten, and certain plot details are changed.

Trading notes: Fantastic capture of Luke’s last show as Strat! Shot between heads. Disruption in act 2 as a rowdy couple argues, causing Rob to become visibly annoyed at them, eventually leading to one of the most insane theatre experiences of my life as the couple is removed from the theatre to audience chants of “out out out!”

Trading notes: Great clear video with excellent picture and good sound.

Trading notes: Gabriel's Jeremy debut and his West End debut. Video wanders a bit but it's overall much better than the Other Palace capture. One head obstructs the centre spot of the stage where some action takes place, as shown in screencaps. Released in both 1080p and 4K.

Master's notes: Originally uploaded to YouTube and ripped, can also be found on BiliBili. A decent capture filmed from the first few rows and is obstructed by heads but does not block any major action and is watchable. Contains a couple of dropouts and readjustments. Act one is full, but act two starts during The Pitiful Children. Includes Joe Iconis and Scott Folan's speeches before and after the show respectively.

Trading notes: Great 4K capture of this surprisingly fun show! The concert sequence in Act Two is blindshot due to usher activity, and there are a few blackouts throughout the show (including the final note of Act One). Increased wandering and unfocusing throughout. Audio is fed from external source, curtain call is audio only.

Master's notes: Robyn's last

Master's notes: Great capture of this show shot with alternate camera. Minor head obstruction at the bottom that never blocks any action. Increased wandering, shaking, and re-adjusting throughout. Some mostly non distracting audience noises. Overall a solid capture of this tour.

Trading notes: Beautiful Thing is a glorious urban love story between two young men set on an inner city housing estate. It tells the story of teenager Jamies relationship with classmate and neighbour Ste. Together the two boys find comedy, warmth and the music of Mama Cass through their loud-mouthed next door neighbour Leah. The play exquisitely depicts what it is to be sixteen, in the first flush of love, and full of optimism. Proshot Filmed at Arts Theatre, London filmed over two days (May 22 and 23)

Trading notes: Pro-Shot Multicam Archive with Soundboard Audio

Trading notes: No zooms, sometimes loses focus, a few blackouts in act 1, missing intros to act 1 & act 2. Im no pro at this but its watchable. Visuals start ~7:30 into first video so dont worry if its black for a while.

Trading notes: Good capture of the tour's first week in London! Very little obstruction throughout, a few brief dropouts due to hypervigilant ushers but complete video otherwise. Much of the transformation sequence at the end is blind-shot and so some parts are missed.

Trading notes: MTS, shot around safety rails, only known video of Alyn Hawke as The Beast.

Master's notes: Excellent video of this shows first preview! There are 2 show stops but i’ve cut them down to about 10-15 seconds each. Some washout, shakiness and readjusting throughout.

Master's notes: A fantastic production of this very moving show, performed at the Mark Taper Forum in Los Angeles. Patrick is phenomenal in the lead role. Andy, Matthew, and the rest of the supporting cast are incredible as well. This is nicely captured with no blackouts and no washout. There is one head that can be seen at the bottom of the screen a couple times, but it only blocks the actors feet and never affects the action. It’s filmed in 16:9, with a mix of wides, mediums, and close-ups. The sound is excellent. Includes playbill scans. A

Trading notes: Semi-pro shot, using one camera on a tripod, with sound directly patched in. 2 DVDs

Trading notes: Concert with Seth Rudetsky at piano. Nice intimate concert that featured her talking about each song that was requested by the audience members prior to her performing them. Songs performed: As If We Never Said Goodbye, He Plays the Violin, Love Song, Meadowlark, Whoever You Are I Love You, No One is Alone, When Theres No One, Memory, Send in the Clowns

Trading notes: Beautiful HD capture of this Pre-Broadway tryout. This was done the final week of shows and has many changes compared to earlier versions. Stunning capture! A+

Trading notes: Its surprising to see how many changes were made from the pre-Broadway tryout in Chicago. Well filmed, but there are a few short blackouts and occasionally its a little choppy due to the way it was encoded, but nothing too bad.

Master's notes: Solid capture of this insane show! Generally more wide and messy than usual but all action is captured. The TV screen is sometimes filmed when the actors go into the audience so as not to miss action. Shot over mostly unobtrusive head obstruction. Audio is patched in from an external source. Some disruptive audience noises. A couple of brief dropouts. Overall a great capture that is just somewhat messy/wide at times.

Trading notes: A fantastic regional production by McCoy/Rigby Entertainment. The cast is phenomenal, and I believe this is the only full capture of Mitchell in the role. A near perfect capture with no obstruction and no washout. The first minute of Act Two is blacked out, and there are a couple quick dropouts between scenes, but the rest of the show is fully intact. 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.

Master's notes: Norwegian version of the musical Billy Elliot, only the guitar parts. Sound: Direct sound from Aviom in ear mix / GoPro mic Recorded February 2024 DNS Bergen Norway

Trading notes: Tracks clicks hearable throughout the performance

Master's notes: Excellent capture of this fantastic new Malloy musical! Shot in a great mix of wides, mediums, and close-ups. Some increased wandering, shaking, and re-adjusting throughout. Audio is patched in from an external source; some scraping and rustling might be heard during adjustment periods. A head appears at the bottom of the shot but doesn't block any action. Overall an excellent capture of this incredibly exciting new show.

Master's notes: Streamed live and uploaded to YouTube, ripped in the highest quality. 'Wine' is a one-off concert that contains a mix of Blake's original songs and covers.

Master's notes: Streamed live and uploaded to YouTube, ripped in the highest quality. 'Mulled Wine' is a Christmas concert series featuring Blake, who sings a diverse range of Christmas and holiday-themed songs.

Master's notes: Streamed live and uploaded to YouTube, ripped in the highest quality. 'Mulled Wine' is a Christmas concert series featuring Blake, who sings a diverse range of Christmas and holiday-themed songs.

Master's notes: MTS, shot around heads, workshop staging. Oscar had lost his voice so writer Tyler Beattie sings Glimmermore's part from offstage.

Master's notes: VOBs. Single camera. no closeups. Some heads. but shows the stage.

Master's notes: Some very minor obstruction on the right side of the screen throughout. Occasional minor washout at times.

Trading notes: The stars of the NBC musical drama series Smash reunite virtually for a special one-night-only streaming event: Bombshell in Concert. The event, announced by The Actors Fund in association with PEOPLE, features the never-seen sold-out live performance of Bombshell in Concert that electrified Broadway at the Minskoff Theater in New York City in 2015. The evening was introduced by two-time Academy Award winner Renée Zellweger, and during intermission, Julie Klausner of “Difficult People” hosted a live, virtual reunion with the show's original cast members, including: Christian Borle, Jaime Cepero, Will Chase, Brian d'Arcy James, Jack Davenport, Ann Harada, Megan Hilty, Jeremy Jordan, Katharine McPhee, Andy Mientus, Debra Messing, Leslie Odom Jr., Krysta Rodriguez and Wesley Taylor. The People version of the proshot cut the song At Your Feet.

Trading notes: The Actors Funds one-night-only Broadway concert of Bombshell, the fictional musical about Marilyn Monroe that was central to the NBC series Smash. Audience shot, not professionally shot release.

Trading notes: Nice capture of this new Wildhorn show. There are only a couple very short blackouts throughout the show and hardly any washout. A

Trading notes: Wide-shot. Very rare footage of a young Tom Francis in a college production of Bonnie and Clyde before his Sunset Blvd days!

Trading notes: Excellent capture of Lauren as Bonnie. Well filmed from the stalls with no real obstructions and minimal wandering. Shot in 4K with external audio synced and includes obstructed curtain call.

Trading notes: Nice capture of the first preview at the Garrick! Insane energy from the audience after every song. Shot over a head that obstructs the very bottom of the stage, and some spotlight washout is present.

Trading notes: Good capture of Barney in the role of Clyde! Brief show stop at the start of This World Will Remember Us due to a set issue. Shot over a safety barrier with some spotlight washout.

Trading notes: MTS, shot around heads and a pillar

Trading notes: Some spotlight washout but not too bad. Full stage shot through the house camera.

Trading notes: The world premiere production of the play by Liz Duffy Adams, depicting a fictional faceoff between two of the greatest writers of their time, playwrights Christopher “Kit” Marlowe and William Shakespeare. In this razor-sharp dark comedy, the two men go head-to-head, fighting and flirting in the back room of a pub, against the backdrop of an aging ruler, an oppressive police state, and constant threat of spies.

Master's notes: Solid phone boot of this neat homoerotic drama between William Shakespeare and Christopher Marlowe. Jaysen did amazing understudying the role of Will, and Alex was truly a wonder. The first 15 minutes, half the stage is cut off and at a dramatic angle, but after that, the video improves drastically and captures all the action. Will's white shirt basically glows but it felt like it did in the theater too, I promise. Some of the darker scenes are a bit underexposed. A couple heads appear in the bottom of frame but they don't cover anything. Readjustment, shaking, and breathing motions throughout. Shot from center of house.

Trading notes: Aired on 08/11/59.

Trading notes: Written as the Covid-19 pandemic unfolded, Breathe follows five couples grappling with the virus's impact on their lives, families, relationships, society, and health. Conceived and written by New York Times best-selling novelist Jodi Picoult and playwright Timothy Allen McDonald, and directed by Tony Award-nominee Jeff Calhoun, Breathe consists of five interlocking suites, with music and lyrics from five songwriting teams. By turns funny and heartbreaking, unbelievable and all-too-real, Breathe is an unprecedented musical chronicling an unprecedented time.

Trading notes: A presentation by the New York City Opera. A Little on the dark side, but well filmed.

Trading notes: Excellent HD video with clear picture and sound filmed from the center mezzanine.

Master's notes: Final performance. An electric performance right from the start. The enthusiastic audience is extremely supportive, and the cast gives emotional performances. Steve Martin joins the band for the Entr'acte, and there's a standing ovation for him, as well as for Carmen following At Long Last. There were no speeches given, but the curtain call was much longer than usual with Steve, Edie, and Walter all taking bows, and Steve doing a short impromptu tap number. This is beautifully captured with no obstructions. There is a one minute blackout over the first scene just before She's Gone, but the rest of the show is complete. There is some slight washout in a few of the wider shots. It's filmed in 16:9, with a mix of wides, mediums, and close-ups. The sound is excellent. Includes the entire extended curtain call and playbill scans.

Trading notes: Different from SunsetBlvd79's video of the same performance. See screen shots for DVD menu image.

Trading notes: From the National Tour that would eventually lead to a run on Broadway. An excellent capture of this new musical that was surprisingly a great time. A

Trading notes: “Broadway Bares XXII: Happy Endings, transforms our favorite fairytales into crazy-hot, spectacular come-to-life stories as told by a bevy of Broadway's best performers. From Snow White to Sleeping Beauty, Pinocchio to The Pied Piper, Broadway Bares XXII spins the classics into contemporary fantasy. Highlights from the evening included: An opening number featuring Kyle Dean Massey (Next to Normal), who portrayed a young man lost in a world where he didn't fit in until Miriam Shor (TV's GCB) appeared as his fairy godmother. Backed by her God Damnettes and singing a double-entendre-filled original song Happy Endings, written by Chad Beguelin and Matthew Sklar (Elf, The Wedding Singer). Shor turned to an enchanted book to show Massey, whose character appeared throughout the show, that every fairy tale deserves a happy ending. Wilkins, Kristen Beth Williams and Mark Myars choreographed the elaborate opening. Bollywood inspired an interpretation of Aladdin, featuring Reed Kelly (Spider-Man: Turn Off the Dark) in the lead role. The high-energy number with bedazzled costumes and fast-paced, intricate choreography by Dontee Kiehn and Monica Kapoor, included three limber aerialists, choreographed by Ryan Lyons, spinning above the dancers on a giant genie bottle. Puss in Boots celebrated woman power as Candice Monet McCall (Memphis) transformed into a cat-like diva leading an all-female gang that encountered a well-heeled posse of boot-wearing, shirtless men led by Charlie Sutton (Wicked). The showdown, choreographed by Wilkins, John Alix and Derek Mitchell, turned into a fierce, sword-fighting dance off. As Goldilocks, an adorably sexy Andy Mills (Memphis) found more than just three bears as a stage full of hairy grizzlies surrounded him in a number choreographed by Michael Lee Scott. The naughty bears led Goldilocks to a floating love den that propelled him and his aerialist keeper Armando Farfan Jr. high above the stage as the grizzlies dipped into their honey pots. The Broadway Bares version of The Pied Piper, played by Marty Lawson (How to Succeed in Business Without Really Trying), rousted an all male, kilt-clad ensemble that teased the audience with a high-energy, high-jumping, bare-bottomed step dance, choreographed by Peter Gregus. The story of The Ugly Duckling took on bullying as Brandon Rubendall (Anything Goes) helped outcast Adar Wellington (Peepshow) embrace both her inner and outer beauty in a moving piece choreographed by Nick Kenkel. Evita's Rachel Potter led the full Broadway Bares company in the evening's high energy finale, Happily Ever After, which offered its own storybook ending complete with John Carroll (Follies) as Massey's Prince Charming. Choreographers that took part in Happy Endings included Marc Kimelman and aerialist choreographer Brandon Perayda (Sleeping Beauty), Stephanie Klemons (Rapunzel), Lorin Latarro (Pinocchio), Josh Rhodes (Snow White) and Charlie Williams (Mirror, Mirror). Making special appearances were Academy Award-nominee Jennifer Tilly and New York drag queen Lady Bunny. Tony Award nominee Christopher Sieber and Rachelle Rak led the show's famous rotation, where the entire cast appears on stage to receive individual tips from audience members”. Multi-camera, pro-shot for video. Disc also includes cast interviews, and the announcement of the “Stripathon Winners”. A

Master's notes: The 30th anniversary of Broadway Bares filled New York City’s Hammerstein Ballroom on June 26, 2022, with an abundance of “community, unity and nudity” as the venerable modern-day burlesque spectacular wrapped up Pride Sunday with a raucous return to in-person performances after a pandemic-induced three-year hiatus. The anniversary celebration immersed audiences into a risqué reverie of Broadway Bares’ history, revisiting highlights from Bares‘ colorful 30-year past. The trip down memory lane starred 170 of New York City’s hottest, most exuberant dancers led by host Maulik Pancholy, who was assisted by Broadway Bares spirit guides Nathan Lee Graham and Lesli Margherita. The electric evening featured special guest appearances by this year’s Tony Awards host and Oscar winner Ariana DeBose, Funny Girl‘s Ramin Karimloo and POTUS‘ Julianne Hough, Suzy Nakamura and Julie White. The rich history of Broadway Bares began in 1992, when Jerry Mitchell, then a Broadway dancer, gathered six of his friends to raise awareness and stop the stigma of HIV diagnoses by stripping and strutting on the bar at New York City’s Splash. They raised $8,000 that first year to help those living with HIV/AIDS. Since then, Broadway Bares has become one of the hottest tickets in town and has raised $24.5 million for Broadway Cares/Equity Fights AIDS. Multi-camera, pro-shot for video. A

Trading notes: Screenshots are from the 4.29 GB copy, which is not the original disc.

Trading notes: Still wide shot that captures the whole stage, unlike the proshot this version is 360p and a significantly smaller file size. There may be a better version somewhere out there.

Trading notes: Shot around heads

Trading notes: no picture until 1 minute into act 1. video is kinda wonky but watchable, with really minor obstruction. missing 10 mins at the start of act 2 cause Im silly and pressed the button by accident
