Master: foundyourheart
Notes: Closing performance of the chicago tryout. The opening number is pretty shaky due to late audience members. There’s a blackout when andy is first talking to emily, and then another in miranda’s office both from late arrivals. As usual some wandering and washout but overall this is a very solid video with more wideshots than usual. The sound on the mp4 file has been replaced with the audio taken on my phone, but the mts files have the original audio that fizzes out when the songs are too loud.

Master: SJ Bernly

Notes: Good video overall with no washout and only minor obstruction. Four of the first five minutes are blacked out and there is a three minute blackout for the audience participation during Not V'one Red Cent, a six minute blackout during Perfect, and the last two minutes of the final song are blacked out. One head that blocks a small part of the front/center part of the stage, but it only blocks the actors feet/legs.

Master: Pro-Shot

Notes: Revamping the tales of ‘happily ever after’ in an empowering all-female musical romp, Disenchanted brings together a band of not-so-merry princesses, keen to rewrite their tales as old as time. Tossing their tiaras and setting the record straight, the royal renegades are here to comically belt out the truths that fairy-tales would have preferred stayed quiet.

Notes: Not so great video of this absolutely fabulous concert. Act 1 is watchable. Wide-shot to see the performer and projection. Act 2 is completely blurry. But the audio is great. All these women completely shine singing songs from the musicals that made them stars. Delightful stories intertwined with the song and fun jokes with the "fairy godfairy" music director. Never to be sold. Gifting Encouraged

Notes: A notorious Broadway flop, serving as a continuation of the classic Henrik Ibsen play, A Doll's House. It's set within a sort of fantasy rehearsal of the original play. Nominated for three Tony Awards and winning none. Major generation loss. C+

Notes: Amazing HD capture of this non Tour production. Taken at the same theatre where my RENT video was captured. This was an amazing show to bring in the holiday spirit and to have some fun. Very hilarious performance from Cody, he was perfect for this role. Some lines from Cody just had me laughing. Amazing to see the mix of adults and kids in this cast. It was a sold out crowd at this performance which is why there is some obstructions and there is some dropouts but, not for too long. There were a lot of kids in the audience and you may hear some kids make remarks but, it doesn't disrupt much in the show. Amazing performance in all general and spectacular show as well. A-

Notes: Lovely capture of this whimsical show. Act One is a phone stageshot with no zooms while Act Two was filmed on a camcorder. Both acts have occasional wandering, with the railing cutting off the feet of the actors, but almost all of the action is captured. Includes a hilarious mishap with Jason’s costume falling apart upon his entrance, and the actors breaking character as Jason went backstage and came back without the wings for the rest of the show.

Master: AwkwardJewishTheatreNerd
Notes: MP4 format. Probably my best musical capture to date, even when I forgot my mythical filming backpack and had to make due with filming with my pocketbook. Filmed from the right orchestra. Audio from an external source, and unfortunately there is some rustling primarily during Act 2. There are also a number of super brief dropouts mostly in Act 2. Usually I get incredibly sick of whatever show I am in the midst of editing, but that didn't happen with this one. NFS forever except through master and NFT thru December 24, 2027.

Master: AwkwardJewishTheatreNerd
Notes: MP4 format. Filmed from front central mezzanine. Mix of wide shots & zooms, minimal dropouts and slight downward camera wandering. Overall good capture of this production. Some interesting choices were made vocally and I don’t know whether to be annoyed at the actor or if the director wanted it that way for some reason.

Master: Pro-Shot

Notes: London’s National Theatre production, broadcast live to cinemas around the world. The National Theatre revival is the first fully staged major London production of Follies to present the original Broadway version of the show. Sondheim and Goldman revised large parts of the show’s script and score for its 1987 London premiere, toning down the underlying bleakness of the Broadway original, and offering a more hopeful finale for its central characters. Director Dominic Cooke revisited early drafts of Goldman’s script, restoring original dialogue and moments that have not been seen in the production since its 1971 Broadway run.

Master: MTTZ

Notes: Good capture of this amazing tour! Shot around an annoying head that obstructs some action right in the center of the stage and obscures faces/scenes at times, but is worked around as best as possible. Large amount of tilt in act 1 that goes away in the second act. Shot in a nice mix of wides, mediums, and close-ups with a focus on Katerinas incredible performance as Fanny. Increased wandering, shaking, and re-adjusting throughout with a couple of dropouts.

Master: stillreprise
Notes: stillreprise's master. Partial video: Act 1 is complete, but act 2 is highlights, including exactly 20 seconds of shirtless Ramin, You're a Funny Girl, What Do Happy People Do?, The Music That Makes Me Dance, and most of the dialogue between Fanny and Nick right before the finale. Also includes the first two minutes of the finale filmed on my phone. Video is grainy and shaky with washout (pretty severe at times) but overall is watchable. Mild obstruction on the far sides of the stage, on one side by a shoulder (not bad) and on the other side by hair (very bad). A few dropouts and some wandering throughout. Definitely not the best Funny Girl video out there, but overwhelmingly alright.

Master: bikinibottomday
Notes: Great 4K capture of Ephie’s debut as Fanny! Act One is filmed from the center orchestra, and has a small obstruction on the right side and a much larger one on the left which blocks off some action. Act Two is filmed from the right orchestra, but is unobstructed. There are occasional moments of wandering, unfocusing, and spotlight washout. Includes the overture, entr’acte and curtain call, audio is fed from external source.

Master: AwkwardJewishTheatreNerd

Notes: MP4 format. Some obstruction from the head just barely to the left in front of me. Extreme washout during the entire Fanny’s first rehearsal and performance as part of the Ziegfeld Follies sequence. Still decent amount of washout during the rest, but the formerly mentioned part is the worst offender. More camera wandering than usual on my end, as well as a number of dropouts with varying lengths (longest being 2 minutes in act 2). Act 2 is split in 6 parts numbered and named with a song title or other notable detail due to having no space on my phone and multiple blackouts. These parts are as follows: Shirtless Ramin, Fanny’s Opening Night, Who Are You Now, A Generous Offer, Music Who Makes Me Dance, The Prodigal Convict Returns. NFS FOREVER, and NFT except through master til October 24 2027.
