spotlight washout. hadesishere's master B

Decent HD stageshot of Robyn as Amandine/Philomene, shot from the right stalls;
filmed with a steady wideshot, and wanders occasionally due to being filmed blind,
however it captures most of the action; very right side of the stage
is blocked and there is one major head that obstructs in the middle,
but altogether it's not too bad and there is almost zero spotlight washout.
Act 2 begins a few minutes after 'Half Asleep' but the video
is complete aside from that. B

Good capture of the Chicago premiere; the production was staged on a
runway down the middle of a large room. Audience was seated on both sides
of the stage and actors were frequently in all of the aisles so actor's
backs are sometimes facing the camera and ensemble actors sometimes obscure
the main action in a scene; only the middle of the runway is filmed because
of the stage set-up; act two is very dark; filmed by allisforgiven B+

obstructed and the audio is not very clear; there are 30 seconds missing
in the middle of "Once Upon a December" and 30 seconds missing after

to avoid people coming in and out, the only obstruction is a head
that appears in the bottom left corner but blocks no action.

Anheuser Busch Marketing Convention: "Legends Of Show Biz"
11/3/88 ~ Los Angeles, CA
This was filmed at Anheuser Busch's 135th anniversary celebration
for invited employees and distributors at the Shrine Auditorium
in Los Angeles. It was a star-studded evening and includes onstage
appearances and performances by Charlton Heston, Lucille Ball
(one of her last public appearances as she died about 5 months later),
Liza Minnelli ("Liza With A Z", "Maybe This Time"), Frank Sinatra

"Where Or When", "Come Rain Or Come Shine", "Old Man River",
"All Or Nothing At All"), Sammy Davis Jr. ("If I Could Talk To The Animals",

hits), Milton Berle, Norm Crosby, Tommy Tune (dances a few numbers),
Lou Rawles, Ed McMahon, Al Hirt, Chuck Mangione, Natalie Cole

dancers, and Vegas-style sets and costumes, that few people got to see.

ill people under the age of 60. The evening starts off with a live

screens behind them. The celebrations continue on and include a film
montage, and then an exciting on-stage conversation with Ann-Margret

cheerleading squad with Ann-Margaret!) This one night only event was
filmed using multiple camera's, and was made available to only a few
people involved with the production, and of course Ann-Margret

Annie 2 - Miss Hannigan's Revenge
12/23/89 ~ New York
Danielle Findley, Dorothy Loudon, Harve Presnell
This first attempt at a sequel to Annie, Annie 2: Miss Hannigan's Revenge,
opened at the John F. Kennedy Center for the Performing Arts in
Washington, D.C. in December 1989 to universally disastrous reviews.
Extensive reworking of the script and score proved futile, and the
project ended before officially reaching Broadway; newly surfaced video
was filmed from the balcony. Shot between heads, and the balcony
railing is visible, but not too bad-you still get a good feel for the show.
Recorded at the second night performance. Some generational loss. B

Dorothy Loudon, Harve Presnell, Lauren Mitchell,

act II. Some zooms, some spotlight washout. One head in the
lower 1/4 of the screen and the far right corner, not really a distraction.

Ballroom
1991 ~ Long Beach, CA
Tyne Daly, Charles Durning
Shot from upper House left balcony. Okay video that never
gets too close to the action, but the sound is good.
However, the script is vastly rewritten and the only about a 1/3
of the original score remains, being replaced by vastly superior
songs that have character and plot relevance. That makes this a
slightly difficult watch but a very rewarding one. B

A strong capture of the full show, with wides, mediums, and closeups.
There are no obstructions to the shot, apart from one head that
occasionally gets in the way, but there is some wandering,
a little spotlight washout (not too severe, however), and flickering
at the 'floor lights'. Very stable footage which follows the action nicely.
Plus, all the effects and stage tricks are included! Act Two is a little dark,
although this is down to stage lighting more than camera settings.
Due to the acoustics of the London Coliseum, the audio is a tiny bit muffled,
but at a nice and steady volume. Includes glimpses of the curtain call. B

contrast adjusted, colour notched, and aligned to spec
on the framerate. Audio has had the usual declip/declick/noise filter
and a bit of extra EQ to take off the distortion in the higher ends;
not great but the only thing out there now B

A decent capture of the show, a couple weeks after opening.
Filmed with a mix of wides, mediums, and closeups, there are no
obstructions except for a head on the far right and a railing
that are both only visible in very wide shots. Washout is present
in the wides, but the closeups are very nice. There's a four minute
blackout in Act One but the show is completely full otherwise.
Nice video B+

Nice HD stage shot from the center mezzanine, with a mostly unblocked
view of the stage except for the top of a head at the bottom
of the screen. Only known video of Troy as Michael and Cameron
as Jake! Act One is full, but Act Two starts missing scenes
after the Smartphone Hour and the master filled those in with audio
from Cameron's debut as the SQUIP, with George Salazar as Michael,
Britton Smith as Jake, and Joel Waggoner as Mr Heere/Mr Reyes. B

Shot from the left orchestra; only about a minute of action is
missed (when Gaston and the Beast climb the "roof" during the
final fight).Audio starts before Belle's father leaves for the fair
but filming doesn't start until after Maurice is in the castle. Lots
of ushers so about four or five coverups during the first act,
usually less than a minute long at the end of a song and nothing
major is missed.The second act is filmed better with only one
coverup during the show and one at curtain calls; good picture

Good amount of closeups and good quality filmed from the midmezzanine;
there is a railing issue for a while in Act 1 but the
taper improves; taper sometimes loses attention to the show at
times and it is a little shaky; erratic and random coverups, and
'Me', 'Gaston' and 'Be Our Guest' are all predominantly missing
and recording stopped for some time after 'Gaston', which created
a little jump in the timeline to where Maurice gets thrown
out of the tavern.Very little closeups during 'Human Again' but a
nice video of the last Broadway cast B

Great wide-shot phone boot of this incredible production
from Olney Theatre. A few scenes are a little dark, and tiny bit
is missed only on the far right side of the stage (nothing more
than about 20 seconds). This cast is deserving of all the accolades
and attention they've gotten from national publications. The inclusion
of a large, Black woman playing Belle and having a Beast played
by a man with a pegleg without caricature is truly inspiring. A-

Beauty and the Beast - MET2
10/30/05 ~ Baldwin Park, CA
Patrick Hallahan, Kristina Coltrane, Dan Herring
NOT the Disney production; a community theater one; the
Baldwin Park one isn't a great cast, but I included it simply
because the Beast is AMAZING. Skip ahead to The Beast's
Lament at the beginning of Act 2. Not a great song, but GREAT
performance for a community theatre. A

Great HD capture of the magical Disney musical, featuring the understudies
for Emelius Browne, Norton and Angela. Filmed with a mix of wides,
mediums and closeups, there is minimal wandering, some spotlight washout
and almost no obstructions. This was a signed performance, and the interpreter
can be seen in a few scenes, but not during most scenes. Audience can be a little
noisy at points, but it's nothing super bad or distracting.

Act One is completely blindshot and stageshot, and starts
out alright, but drifts upward as the act goes on and has an
obstruction that covers a significant portion of the left side.
Act Two is shot well; one large head on the center left side

as best as possible in Act Two. There's one blackout at the end of Act Two;

Decent capture of the new Broadway mounting, with Gabi Campo stepping
into the role of Miss Argentina for a few weeks; several short moments
of wandering and blackouts, and spotlight washout is frequent; the front
of the stage is cut off so anytime a character is on the ground
and at the front of the stage, they may not be visible. Act one begins
with Beetlejuice's entrance after the opening song but is otherwise the full show.

Blood Brothers
1994 ~ Australia
David Soul, Delia Hannah, Stefan Dennis, Ross Girven, Tina Regtien
The first act was filmed in Melbourne, from the balcony. Decent
quality, but it follows the action loosely. The second act is choppy
bits and pieces, and was filmed in Sydney, where David Soul
took over the role of the 'Narrator.' The footage of the second
act is taken from the wings, backstage, behind the backdrops,
and the stage manager's booth. In addition to seeing the action
onstage, you see actors waiting to enter and exit, and crew
members doing quick changes, etc. About 85% of the show.Also
includes a footage from backstage interviewing cast and crew
members, a bit of rehearsal/set construction, and some footage
from outside of the theater. Also includes footage of members
from the cast rehearsing/performing at what looks to be a
church. Decent quality throughout, the audio and video are very
slightly out of sync. B

Nice capture of this new show; first couple minutes of each act
are blacked out while everyone got settled, and a couple very
short blackouts throughout the show, but those are less than 30
seconds each; slight little washout in some of the wides, and
there's one head on the left that blocks the actors' legs occasionally;

Bonnie Milligan & Natalie Walker Were Always Supposed
To Do A Show On September 6th And Have Been Planning It For Months
9/6/19 ~ Feinstein's/54 Below
From 54 Below in Quarantine. This is not a last-minute substitution
(actually it was). They have simply been super low-key about it until
this very moment, because they are both notoriously chill girls
who historically loathe attention. Bonnie Milligan (Head Over Heels),
who has been described by Vulture as "a thrill to watch", and Natalie Walker
(Alice By Heart), who has been described by Cabaret Scenes as "basically a good
singer when not being directly compared to Bonnie Milligan," join forces for an evening
of music, mayhem, and murder. Filmed using one camera on a tripod.
Disc includes Brittain Ashford A

Andrew Rannells, Josh Gad, Nikki M. James, Rory O'Malley,
Michael Potts, Scott Barnhardt, Justin Bohon,
Darlesia Cearcy, Lewis Cleale, Kevin Duda,
Asmeret Ghebremichael, Clark Johnsen, John Eric Parker
This is the fourth and final workshop of the show, so it's
almost all there, but with some differences from the final version.
It is presented before a small audience in a rehearsal space,
with risers used as set pieces. Some of the actors are in costumes
(mostly the Mormons), others are in street clothes. "Hasa Diga Eebowi"
here is called "Vasa Diga Eelohai", but it's very close to the final
version. Includes cut songs "Family Home Evening", "The Bible, Part 3"
(which morphed into "All-American Prophet") and "H-E-Double-Hockey-Sticks"
(which later became "Spooky Mormon Hell Dream"). Filmed using two camcorders on tripods. A

9/6/12 ~ Los Angeles, CA
Gavin Creel, Jared Gertner, Samantha Marie Ware, Kevin Mambo,
Grey Henson, Derek Williams, Josh Breckenridge, Jeffery David Sears,
Mike McGowan, Bud Weber, Phyre Hawkins
Filmed in a 16:9 ratio in a combination of wides, mediums, and
close-ups; only obstruction is a head in the very middle of the
screen and one off to the side. The head in the middle is only
visible in the very far wides, the head on the left side of the
screen is rarely ever there except for a couple of seconds at
the end of the first act; a couple of washouts and whiteouts
that occur but only really during the wides. They are randomly
dispersed so it doesn't affect the video too much. At a couple
of times the DVD is a little blurry and gets a little shaky but
other than that it is pretty good. 2 DVDs A-

11/18/12 ~ Broadway
K.J Hippensteel (u/s Elder Price), Cale Krise, Nikki M. James,
Rory O'Malley, Michael Potts, Brian Tyree Henry
Filmed from the back of the stalls and unobstructed. The first
half of act one is a blind-shot, so there's some wandering and
sometimes the camera is pointed too high. Hello is there, some
of Two by Two, but You and Me is audio only; Act 2 is much better
and focuses on the stage throughout; sound is good; good video 2 DVDs B

Mostly well captured with mild spotlight washout
and audio problems throughout where the sound is very low
at times and goes away completely at least twice;
there was one major technical difficulty in the beginning
of the second act, they had to stop the show for about 10 minutes
to reset a set piece that did not properly come in and the stopping
the show and resuming is all captured; includes curtain call
and BCEFA speech given by Cody. 2 DVDs B

Nice HD capture of the new 2021 tour cast, and interesting to see
the changes made to the show post-lockdown. Shot with a mix of wides,
mediums and closeups; there are heads obstructing the bottom of the stage,
meaning some action is missed but it's worked around where possible.
There's 2 short dropouts total, and fairly minimal wandering and
washout throughout. B

Act 1 is unobstructed until "Two by Two" where there's a 2-minute

Great stage shot of the 2.0 version of this new musical
prior to the addition of any new songs. Very occasional head
and hands appear on the right side, but rarely obstruct
any of the action; this show swings wildly from dark to very bright
so the bright scenes are somewhat washed out. The worst of the washout
is during the very last song where the camera also unfocused.

Minor obstruction on the bottom that rarely cuts off action,
it only obstructs when they lean forward which is almost immediately
remedied, so the obstruction is well worked around.
