NOTES: (VOB + smalls - 4.03 GB) Filmed from the far left in orchestra seats. Not recommended to anyone who hasn't seen the show. It's really hard to follow and wanders off to the roof/walls/etc a lot although certain zooms are interesting to watch from that angle. I'd say this is more for collectors.

NOTES: (VOB + smalls) A nice capture overall; the biggest flaw here is the obstruction. There are a lot of heads that were very difficult to work around, but the show is still captured well and the actors are only occasionally blocked for a few seconds at a time. There are some very quick dropouts, but no major blackouts. It's filmed in 16:9, with a mix of wides, mediums, and close-ups. The sound is excellent. Includes playbill scans.

Great picture and sound throughout.

NOTES: (MTS - 14.93 GB)
- Quite a unique production. Stage is made up of steps with chalk drawings and writing that the characters add onto throughout the show. Pretty interesting set ups during some scenes. For example, during the class at the beginning, each step has a hole (which gets closed for other scenes) and each student sits in one in a straight line going up. They look like...prairie dogs haha. I really enjoy the new choreography and musical rearrangements.

VIENNA
Vienna | May 24, 2009
Rasmus Borkowski (Melchior Gabor), Jana Stelley (u/s Wendla Bergmann), Wolfgang Türks (Moritz Stiefel), Jennifer Kothe (Ilse Neumann), Johannes Huth (Hanschen Rilow), André Naujoks (u/s Ernst Robel), Marlon Wehmeier (Otto Lämmermeier), Dominik Hees (Georg Zirschnitz), Jana Nagy (Anna), Jeannine Michèle Wacker (Thea), Julia Stemberger (The Adult Women), Daniel Berger (The Adult Men)
NOTES: (VOB + smalls - 4.32 GB) Six major blackouts (including the majority of “My Junk” and “The Mirror-Blue Night” and the taper has a couple of performers that they obviously favour. The result is a video that stays in tight shot on the people in question for most of the show and has the shakes to go with it. Sound is great and it's good to see the Vienna cast. Final performances for most of the understudies in their roles.

NOTES: (VOB + smalls - 2.8 GB) Non-replica production. Common version is an AVI rip. Probably would be considered a house-cam rather than a pro-shot as people commonly label it.

BUDAPEST

NOTES: (VOB + smalls - 3.99 GB) A non-replica production with strange yet interesting staging. Stationary housecam from an upper level, but colours are bright, clear, and vivid and the image is nice and crisp. Sound is clear from the soundboard. Totally different staging from Broadway.
- The March 2009 video is just a lower quality version of this video in a different format (TS usually). I learned this the hard way...many disappointing trades later.

I have been informed that the listings for this using the 2012 date have the incorrect cast information (the ones with Alan Estrada as Melchior, etc). This is the real date and cast.
