master's notes: Filmed in 4K, released as 1080p and 4K. No obstructions. Short part of Act 2 (around "Atlantic City") was filmed using alternate filming methods so temporarily a bit more shaky and slower to follow action as a result, but the rest of the show is very steady and follows action perfectly. Gorgeous production despite minimal/simple sets

Shively (Mother's Younger Brother) notes: A beautiful quality video taken from the left box seats. Beautiful closeup and medium shots.

Young (Booker T. Washington)
notes: A gorgeous quality video taken from the right dress circle. Filmed in wonderful closeup, medium and wide shots. There may be the teeniest bit of obstruction from the master's sleeve a couple times during the early parts of Act 1, but it goes away later on. There may be a small bit of obstruction when actors are downstage due to a safety railing. Tiny bit of spotlight washout here and there.

Young (Booker T. Washington)
notes: A gorgeous quality video taken from the rear center orchestra. Filmed in spectacular closeup and medium shots and beautiful wide shots. A teensy bit of washout in the wider shots. Shot over heads, but they don't get in the way of any action at all. There maybe a teensy bit of obstruction on the very far sides when action is on the floor due to a railing and a sleeve. There is one small blackout in the dialogue right before "Back to Before."

master's notes: Pretty good stage shot of this electric cast. Shot between and around heads. As this was the Gala performance, some of the obstructing heads are famous performers. The heads are present throughout and do obstruct the action from time to time- the worst during "Gliding" where both actors are sitting on the ground. Otherwise, the full show is captured with no action missed.

notes: An absolutely gorgeous quality video taken from the center mezzanine. Filmed in phenomenal closeup, medium and wide shots. There is a head that can obstruct some action to the far left in the opening number, but is not an issue later on in the video. Some wandering and re-focusing here and there. A teensy bit of spotlight washout in the wider shots.

notes: Filmed in 4K from mezzanine. Another excellent video of this powerhouse production. A tad bit more heads to have to film around, but still very little obstruction. Dropouts mostly only for applause. A little shakier here and there due to awkward positioning. Several well-deserved partial standing ovations.

notes: A wonderful world premiere adaptation of Somerset Maugham’s “Rain”. The music is beautiful and Eden belts the score with her usual powerhouse vocals.This is fully captured with no blackouts. There is on head center stage that can be seen occasionally, but it only affects the action once for a few seconds in act two. The sound is excellent. Includes curtain call and playbill scans. A

notes: A very great quality video taken from the center right mezzanine. Great closeup and medium shots. Lighting of the show can be dark so you can see some spotlight washout.

notes: An excellent quality video taken from the rear right orchestra. Mostly filmed in beautiful medium shots and great wide shots. Blindly shot so it may take a second to follow the action. Some scenes can be VERY dark which would cause a blackout. Shot over heads which can be seen in Act 1 and get in the way at times, but are not much of a problem in Act 2. There is a dropout when the cast walks through the audience and the house lights go up.

cast: Idina Menzel (Jesse), De'Adre Aziza (Mel), Nkeki Obi-Melekwe (Becca), Michael Park (Finn), Zachary Noah Piser (Spencer/Clerk/Man in Rain/Mateo), Kate Diaz (Voice of Trees/Stella)
notes: A great quality video taken from the right rear orchestra. Wonderful closeups (especially of Idina), great medium shots and good wide shots. Shot between heads that are mostly seen at the bottom of the frame. The heads can block some action that takes place on the ground. The show is filmed at a bit of an angle to combat the heads as best as possible. Wandering, shakiness and re-adjustment here and there. Missing about 5 minutes of video around 15 minutes in, but the audio is full.

master's notes: Stunning capture of this amazing musicals USA premiere featuring some reworked and added scenes!

cast: Rob Madge
notes: A beautiful quality video taken from the center left mezzanine. Gorgeous closeup, medium and wide shots. Filmed between heads and one can slightly be seen on the left side of the frame, but doesn't seem to obstruct any action. This show is apparently a very emotional and tear-jerking.

notes: A stunning quality 4K capture taken from the back of the theatre. Gorgeous closeup, medium and wide shots. Wider shots are used more for the group numbers and closeups are for the individual numbers. Heads can be seen at the bottom of the frame, but they don't obstruct any action at all. This cast does an incredible job.
Rock of Ages - Mercury Theater - circa July 2023 - MP4 - AllisForgiven's Master

master's notes: Good capture of this regional production. This was a very tiny theatre and the show used all the space so some of the action occurs out of frame. There is head obstruction and some instances where the actors are just barely out of frame because it was very difficult to maneuver. Despite its issues, still a nice capture of a great little production
Rock of Ages - Mercury Theater - circa August 2023 - MP4 - AllisForgiven's Master
cast: David Moreland (Drew), Kayla Shipman (Sherrie), Donovan Hoffer (Stacee Jaxx), Michael Metcalf (Lonny), Sharriese Hamilton (Justice/Mother), Steve Watts (Dennis), Tafadzwa Diener (u/s Regina), Shaun Dennison White (u/s Hertz), Aaron Davidson (Franz), Jason Richards (Mayor/Father/Reporter), Darryl D'Angelo Jones (Ja'Keith Gill), Clayton Cross (Joey Primo), Julia Fleckenstein (Reporter), Rachel Thomas (Ensemble), Nick Johnson (u/s Ensemble)
master's notes: Decent stage shot of this regional production with some surprise understudies! Act one is great- most of the action captured and very little obstruction. Act two unfortunately is blurry, but all action is captured. This (matinee) features an exceptionally intoxicated woman in the front row. She progressively got more and more disruptive during act two, forcing the actors to ad lib and interact with her.

cast: Andy Karl (Rocky Balboa), Margo Seibert (Adrian Pennino), Terence Archie (Apollo Creed), Dakin Matthews (Mickey Goldmill), Danny Mastrogiorgio (Paulie Pennino), Jennifer Mudge (Gloria).

notes: This is the 2nd to last performance of this lovely show before it's early closing. It's a very nice capture overall; the first two and half minutes of act one are blacked out, as is about three minutes during Undefeated Man and The Fight, but the rest is complete; no obstruction except during The Fight when everyone leans forward; the heads are worked around fairly well.

master’s notes: Technical Notes: Camcorder video shot in 4K. No obstructions. Very slight washout on occasion, but never obscures any action.

cast: Leslie Rodriguez Kritzer (Monica), Doug Kreeger (Ian)

cast: Ray Robinson (Gordon/Zepp), Adam Parbhoo (Adam/Diana), Gabrielle Goodman (Jigsaw/Amanda/Alison)

Shot with a mix of wides, mediums, and close-ups, with wides and close-ups being common wherever possible. Especially wideshot during darker scenes. Shot between and around many heads that obstruct some action. Some action is missed throughout, but the show is still very watchable. A large amount of wandering, re-adjusting, and some shakiness. Some rustling can be heard throughout.

Alex Brightman shows why he deserves his Tony Nomination with a kick ass performance.

notes: A lovely new show full of talented performers, and the lead women have a great rapport with each other.

There is a rail that obstructs the actors legs when they come into the audience, but the action on the main stage is unobstructed. 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.

notes: Second Preview! Filmed from the back row of the right balcony; small theater so zoomed closeups are very clear shot. No picture at the beginning of each act, so the picture is blurry or non-existent for a bit, and there's one short coverup during Donkey's entrance, but other than that everything is there. There's very little audience obstruction and spotlight washout, and the sound is excellent throughout.

notes: A great capture of the frozen version of the show. A very nice capture overall with a few short blackouts. There are two blackouts during the scenes between Honeysuckle Time and Swing Along and another during the New York Here We Come dance number; each blackout is one minute long. There are also a few quick dropouts in each act. There is one head on the right that blocks the actors’ legs, but it’s worked around when necessary, and it gets much better as the show goes on.

master's notes: Recording starts roughly 9 minutes into the show. Release includes heavily obstructed phone footage for those 9 mins from an earlier performance for completeness' sake, but the main video/story is enjoyable without it.

master's notes: Filmed in 4K near back of theatre. Last 9 minutes of video is audio-only (original footage corrupted). Only a few minor obstructions when action is on the far right side.

There is one blackout from during the sequence lasting about 15 seconds. There’s another from the end of the escape to when Joe and Sugar are talking, lasting about two minutes.

master's notes: Okay capture of Ranease Ryann as Sugar. View is unobstructed, but there is some shakiness, wandering, and a significant dropout towards the end of act 1 due to usher activity. However, I made an effort to film more actively during Sugar’s bigger moments. Most of act 2 is shot wide to medium.

notes: . A nice capture of the tour with some new faces, including a new group of Von Trapp children. Kerstin has really settled into the role, and Brent steps in beautifully as The Captain.

No blackouts, washout, and no major obstructions; one head can occasionally be seen at the very bottom edge of the screen, but it never affects the action. 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. A

notes: A gorgeous quality video taken from the left mezzanine. Wonderful closeup, medium and wide shots. There is a railing and a head that can be seen in the bottom of the frame, but they don't seem to obstruct much action at all. Some wandering and re-adjustment here and there which can cause a teensy bit of focusing issues.

Smith (Mrs. Puff), Jai'len Josey (Pearl) Stephanie Hsu (Karen Plankton), Jon Rua (Patchy the Pirate), Gaelen Gilliland (Mayor), Kelvin Moon Loh (Perch Perkens)
notes: There's a head or two at the bottom of the screen that can disrupt action in wideshots sometimes, but other than that; a fantastic quality video. I HIGHLY recommend Plankton's number "When the Going Gets Tough" in Act 1 and "I'm Not a Loser" in Act 2.

notes: The master has updated to make the listing as whatever the user wishes. It can be limited trades or regular trades. Filmed from the right balcony, with no zooms. Mostly a wide shot of the stage. Quite a bit of spotlight washout. Audio is clear. Starts from right before “No Control.” The only known footage of Alex as Squidward or Brynn as Pearl. A watermark at the bottom left corner says 2014/01/31, ignore this. It is the wrong date.

notes: Filmed from the Mezzanine! A very good quality video, though there are some heads at the bottom of the video that can obstruct at times. A definite must watch video for the Spongebob fan! The final performance was filled with plenty of new jokes, bloopers and huge audience ovation during and after each number.

master's notes: Filmed in 1080p HD 16:9 widescreen a couple weeks before the show closed. Very difficult to shoot around heads of some tall people, so quite a bit of obstruction in some scenes, but shot around as best as possible. Fun show, great energy from the cast as well as the audience who was loving every moment. First 30 seconds of Act 1 and first four minutes of Act 2 are audio only due to house lights being up. Audio fed in from external source so it's super clear.

master's notes: The show itself is incredibly solid from a creative standpoint, but the non-equity production is heavily scaled back from the original Broadway production. You’ll notice the projection mapping itself is pretty terrible with constant glitches off of the surfaces that seemed incredibly unprofessional. Otherwise, the tour is a must-see specifically for those who have yet to see the show itself in person. I was only able to capture the first fifty minutes of the show, up about halfway through “Hero is My Middle Name”.

notes: A beautiful quality video taken from two spots in the orchestra. Beautiful closeup, medium and wide shots. Act 1 was filmed from the left orchestra and Act 2 from the center orchestra. The first 11 minutes of the show are taken from a different performance (Most of Bikini Bottom Day). After "Bikini Bottom Day" there is a 50 second blackout. There can be a bit of minor head obstruction towards the bottom of the frame, but the master works around it very well. I absolutely love Divinia De Campo so watching her as Plankton is wonderful.

notes: Filmed on the house-cam, probably from the lighting booth. Feed has the main stage and then different camera angles for races to see all the action.

notes: Often listed as 1989, but due to the cast it must be April 1990. Low generation, but suffers from the camera’s limitations – lots of washout, zooms aren’t too tight. Shot from the lighting booth.

Some wandering and refocusing here and there. The first 10 minutes of the show are mostly wide shot. Some heads of the actors can be cut off if they are in the very far back of the recording booth. One or two short blackouts can occur.

notes: A beautiful quality video taken from the center right mezzanine. Filmed in beautiful closeup and medium shots and excellent wide shots. Shot over heads.

notes: 4:3, decent phone boot of this hilarious, irreverent show heading to Broadway next year. Unfortunately, the first 9 minutes are so are black due to recording errors. The rest of the show is decent, except the far right and left sides of the stage are impossible to see based on seating.

notes: 16x9 stage-shot video of the pre-Broadway run. Entire show is captured. Minor head on the bottom left, but it doesn't cover any of the action. Performers only not on screen when on the very extreme right side of the stage, but this isn't often

notes: 16x9 stage-shot video of the pre-Broadway run. Entire show is captured. As usual, the dark scenes are very hard to see. Probably about 10-15% of the show. Performers only not on screen when on the very extreme right side of the stage, but this isn't very often. Great, clean audio. 40 minutes into the show, there's a show stop for a sick actor. Video picks up with the understudy playing the lead after the break. Lots more laughter in the audience than the last recordings. This audience LOVED every bit of it.

notes: Absolutely wonderful quality capture of the show featuring Edwin as Usher taken from the right mezzanine. There's only one small obstruction by a light fixture on the far right that can block the action for a moment here and there. Otherwise, a wonderful capture.

notes: Great capture of Michael R. Jackson, book writer, stepping in as Usher! The show was performed in concert style, and there's a major head blocking the ushers that is worked around as best as possible. Standing ovation for Michael when he enters, fancam at times.

notes: Great 4K capture of Jean-Luke’s debut as Thought 6! There is about two minutes of blackout in total, mostly in the first 30 minutes in between scenes, which causes some missed action. Some wandering/readjustment and unfocusing throughout. A bar obstruction is visible but is mostly unobtrusive. Includes curtain call, audio fed from external source.

Jackson, Marc Ginsburg (Ensemble)
notes: An awesome quality video taken from the rear center orchestra. Really great closeup and medium shots. There's some dropouts and focus issues from time to time. Some heads can be seen at the bottom of the frame in wider shots, but they don't take away from any action at all.

master's notes: Great stage shot of a concert performance of this show- featuring the original Broadway orchestrations. Cast features a couple Broadway names mixed with equity performers from the Chicago area. Some moments of shakiness and readjustments throughout.
Sunny Afternoon - Chicago Shakespeare Theater - circa April 2025 - MP4 - AllisForgiven's Master
cast: Danny Horn (Ray Davies), Oliver Hoare (Dave Davies), Michael Lepore (Pete Quaife), Kieran McCabe (Mick Avory), John Carlin (Mr. Davies/Allen Klein/Ensemble), Marya Grandy (Mrs. Davies/Marsha/Ensemble), Sean Fortunato (Larry Page/Ensemble), Joseph Papke (Eddie Kassner/Ensemble), Ana Margaret Marcu (Rasa/Ensemble), Jared D.M.

master's notes: Great close up stage shot of the US premiere. A bit of washout and some ping ponging here and there, but nothing distracting. The cast was often in the aisles so occasionally the stage is obstructed by a cast member standing directly in front of the camera.
Sunset Boulevard - Broadway - July 14, 1995 - VOB+Smalls
cast: Betty Buckley, Alan Campbell, Alice Ripley, Steven Stein-Grainger
notes: A decent copy of the show with enough generational loss and lower sound but still a decent video.
Sunset Boulevard - Broadway - February 19, 1996 - VOB+Smalls
cast: Betty Buckley (Norma Desmond), John Barrowman (Joe Gillis), Alice Ripley (Betty Schaeffer)
notes: Highlight video! Includes 40 minutes of highlights from Betty's first preview, and her appearance on 'The Rosie O'Donnell Show' to promote her run in the show.

Rivas, Michaela Duhme, Natascha C. Hill, Evelina Quilichini, Ramon Riemarzik, Lutz Laible, Lado Riemarzik
notes: Beautiful HD capture with some little shakiness and head obstruction on the left. Very nice close-ups and wide-shots. Missing the first 10 minutes of act two, starts in the middle of 'As If We Never Said Goodbye”. Although Brigitte Oelke is a very 'moony' and melancholic Norma and missed some obsession in my eyes, she did an absolutely wonderful job. Veit Schäfermeier seems a bit too old and not really the type of man Joe is/should be, but he did good as well. The staging is okay, but sometimes a little thrifty. I really did miss the splendor of Norma's villa, it looked a bit dilapidated and too modest for a diva.

There is one head that is on the left side of the frame that can obstruct the very left of the stage. Towards the end of Act 2, there can be one head right in the center blocking action, but they do move very quickly.

cast: Nicole Scherzinger (Norma Desmond), Tom Francis (Joe Gillis), Grace Hodgett-Young (Betty Schaefer), David Thaxton (Max von Mayerling), Ahmed Hamad (Artie)
notes: A good quality video taken from the rear mezzanine. Good quality closeup and medium shots. Filmed between heads that can obstruct the lower right and left sides. Lighting of the show can be very dark at times. This production uses a lot of projection so that's filmed as well.

cast: Rachel Tucker (alt Norma Desmond), Gregor Milne (u/s Joe Gillis), Grace Hodgett-Young (Betty Schaefer), David Thaxton (Max von Mayerling), Ahmed Hamad (Artie)
notes: A very good quality video taken from the mezzanine. Great quality closeup and medium shots. Lighting of the show can be very dark at times, but the projections in the show help. Heads can be seen in the lower part of the frame, but the master works around them very well.
Sunset Boulevard - Broadway - September 28, 2024 - MP4 - BikiniBottomDay's Master
cast: Nicole Scherzinger (Norma Desmond), Tom Francis (Joe Gillies), David Thaxton (Max Von Mayerling), Grace Hodgett-Young (Betty Schaefer), Ensemble: Olivia Lacie Andrews (Nancy), Brandon Mel Borowsky (John), Shavey Brown (DeMille/Stan/Finance Man), Hannah Yun Chamberlain (Young Norma/Patsy), Cydney Clark (Joanna/Guard), Raúl Contreras (Finance Man/Frank), Tyler Davis (Sheldrake), E.J.

notes: A wonderful quality video taken from the left mezzanine. Filmed in gorgeous closeup and medium shots and excellent wide shots. There is some obstruction due to a railing and heads that can occasionally block when actors are sitting/laying down in front of the stage. There may be a bit of super close zooms in the first ten minutes of the show due to a camera glitch, but that gets resolved later. There is a 30 second blackout at the New Years Eve scene. The lighting of the show is very dark and there are a few scenes where it may be a bit hard to see. Some wandering, re-adjustment and re-focusing here and there. I just recently saw this show and the performances from this cast are absolutely phenomenal.

Hamilton (Lisa), Brandon Borkowsky (John), Jimin Moon (Hog Eye/Morino), Sydney Jones (Dorothy), Olivia Lacie Andrews (Nancy)
notes: A beautiful quality video taken from the center mezzanine of the show's first preview! There may be some brief obstruction due to heads when the action is a bit more downstage. The master works around the heads as best as they can. Some dropouts for applause (and standing ovations!) and when the lighting got very very bright.

Hamilton (Lisa), Brandon Mel Borkowsky (John), Giuseppe Bausilio (s/w Hog Eye/s/w Morino), Abby Matsusaka (s/w Dorothy), Olivia Lacie Andrews (Nancy), Shayna McPherson (Katherine/Camera Operator)
master's notes: Great 4K capture of a rare set of understudies, including Sydney’s debut as Betty! Some head / railing obstruction at the front of the stage that occasionally blocks off characters sitting / laying down. More messily filmed and wideshot than usual due to usher activity, nearly all action is still captured. Increased moments of wandering / readjustment and unfocusing. Gets better in Act Two. Includes curtain call, the post-show BC/EFA speech, and credits, audio is fed from external source.

Hamilton (Lisa), Brandon Borkowsky (John), Jimin Moon (Hog Eye/Morino), Sydney Jones (Dorothy), Olivia Lacie Andrews (Nancy)
notes: An excellent quality video taken from the left mezzanine. Filmed in beautiful closeup & medium shots and excellent wide shots. Shot over heads which do get in the way of some action more towards the very front of the stage. Everything towards the back of the stage is seen pretty clearly and the projections are clearly seen as well. The lighting of the show is dark so there may be a teensy bit of washout in the wider shots.

notes: A beautiful quality video taken from the left mezzanine. Filmed in beautiful closeup shots, excellent medium shots and wide shots. There's a bar that can appear at the bottom of the screen, but doesn't get in the way of any action. Starts during "Betty's Pitch." Focuses more on the action on stage versus the screen and camera work. The master says that this is mostly a Tom Francis fancam and focuses very much on him.

Hamilton (Lisa), Brandon Borkowsky (John), Jimin Moon (Hog Eye/Morino), Abby Matsusaka (s/w Dorothy), Olivia Lacie Andrews (Nancy)
notes: An excellent quality video taken from the right rear mezzanine. Filmed in beautiful quality closeup shots, excellent medium shots and good wide shots. There is a head that can get in the way of some action, but the master works around it decently well. Some wandering, shakiness and re-focusing here and there. Some washout in the wide shots. A couple of dropouts while the master re-adjusts. This is Rashidra's debut as Norma!

Hamilton (Lisa), Brandon Mel Borkowsky (John), Jimin Moon (Hog Eye/Morino), Sydney Jones (Dorothy), Olivia Lacie Andrews (Nancy)
master's notes: Filmed in 4K from mezzanine. Excellent capture of Rashidra Scott as Norma - steady filming throughout, almost no obstructions except for a head that is sometimes seen on the lowest part of the screen but does not obstruct any action. A couple of brief dropouts aside from applause. Only a couple of moments where camera goes out of focus. Very enthusiastic audience to support Rashidra who was utterly outstanding. Includes curtain call and David's BC/EFA speech that were recorded on another device, which is a little grainy

master's notes: First performance after winning several Tonys including Best Revival and Best Leading Actress for Nicole. Almost fully obstructed for the first 5 mins of the show, but mostly only some obstruction at the bottom due to a bar blocking the camera throughout the rest of the show. The energy for this performance was insane and there were multiple mid-show standing ovations. Also includes curtain call with a speech by Tom Francis.

cast: Kyle McArthur (Simon), Kate Baldwin (Charlotte), Bryce Pinkham (Jim), Salena Qureshi (Vee), Thom Sesma (Vic), Julia Abueva (Rachel), Jake Levy (Dwayne), Nathaniel Stampley (Dean Fulton)
notes: The filmer just set the camcorder on the armrest and pressed record, so there are points where the actors walk out of camera range, but it’s not too bad. Heads appear in the bottom of the frame, and one big head covers the right side of the frame.

Sweet Charity - Chicago - February 24, 2005 - VOB+Smalls
cast: Christina Applegate (Charity), Denis O'Hare (Oscar), Ernie Sabella (Herman).
notes: Pre-Broadway tryout before the broken foot. Very clear picture and great sound. There are about 10 minutes of blackouts total, mostly during minor scenes; short blackouts after songs or whenever there was applause. A-

notes: : A good HD capture with all things considered. This was a very small Theater and almost staged Theatre-in-the-round. Part of the railing lines the bottom of the screen for most scenes, which also can block actors far downstage left. All that considered, still a very enjoyable rare capture and performances.

master's notes: Decent Wide-shot phone boot of the 2nd preview of this interesting show. Action happens on right side of video, being seated in the far left of the balcony. There's a medical emergency about 10 minutes before the end of the show that causes a show stop. Beginning and end of the reactions included.

Hunter Brown, Matt DeAngelis, Taureen Everett, Cameron Johnson, Brandon Calm, Michael J. Mainwaring, Orville Mendoza, Tyrone L. Robinson, John Sugar, Jamari Johnson Williams (Ensemble)
master's notes: Excellent wide-shot video from the front right orchestra. Only obstruction is the ship sometimes covers the bottom half of the brothers when they're singing on the big ship. Head on the right side, but doesn't cover anything at all except bottom of legs in 2 scenes

master's notes: Decent wide-shot video of Cameron's premiere as Little Brother. Soft focus, but all action captured perfectly. Heads on the bottom of the screen, but never cover any actors.

Hunter Brown, Matt DeAngelis, Taureen Everett, Cameron Johnson, Brandon Calm, Michael J. Mainwaring, Orville Mendoza, Tyrone L. Robinson, John Sugar, Jamari Johnson Williams (Ensemble)
master's notes: Meh wide-shot phone boot from the center orchestra. Heads cover a bit on the left and right. Smaller export size due to being seated further back in the audience. Sometimes, you can hear the older couple talking next to me, especially after the woman fell asleep and asked her husband what happened after the big moment.

notes: A gorgeous quality video taken from the left rear orchestra. Filmed in wonderful closeup, medium and wide shots. There may be a small bit of obstruction on the right side of the frame near the beginning, but goes away later on. Some wandering and re-focusing here and there.

notes: A beautiful quality video taken from the right rear orchestra. Shot in wonderful closeup and medium shots and excellent wide shots. Shot over heads. One head can be seen in the lower left corner of the frame, but doesn't block any of the main action at all.

Mainwaring, Orville Mendoza, Tyrone L. Robinson, John Sygar, Chase Peacock, David Rowen (Ensemble)
master's notes: Great stage shot phone boot from the front orchestra. Captures almost all action (except group dances when someone is in the very front of the stage). The shipwreck scene is a bit dark, but all other exposure is correct. This was filmed during their final week on Broadway, during their announced two-week extension. The entire cast was giving it their all.

Mainwaring (Ensemble), Orville Mendoza (Ensemble), Tyrone L. Robinson (Ensemble), John Sygar (Ensemble), Chase Peacock (Ensemble), David Rowen (Ensemble)
master notes: Same performance as TheatreCouple14's boot of this show, shot on a cell phone from the mezzanine. It catches much of what that boot misses, a perfect shot of the shipwreck & good downstage action. Cast is giving it their all as it was during the two week extension.

Mainwaring (Ensemble), Orville Mendoza (Ensemble), Tyrone L. Robinson (Ensemble), John Sygar (Ensemble), Chase Peacock (Ensemble), David Rowen (Ensemble)
notes: A wonderful quality video taken from the right rear orchestra. Filmed in wonderful closeup, medium and wide shots. Taken towards the end of the run. Some re-focusing and re-adjustment here and there. Shot over heads, but the master works around them very well. There can be a teensy bit of minor obstruction on the far sides in wider shots, but nothing important is missed. Includes curtain call and a moving speech from John Gallagher Jr at the end.
