Are any of the performers allowed to crack a smile during the curtain call or are they all forbidden from doing that? 

In the photos associated with the reviews I'm surprised at how low budget the set looks.

I remember that Jonathan Tunick was in the pit conducting COMPANY which was pretty special. Did he conduct any of the other shows during the festival?

 

Derek McLane's set for COMPANY at the Kennedy Center Sondheim Celebration.

The whole MERRILY production was vastly superior to the recent Broadway revival (Michael Hayden!  Raul Esparza!  and the glorious Miriam Shor!  not to mention Emily Skinner as Gussie!!!!

Watch the video linked below. It is video captured from the infrared stage manager's camera located on the balcony rail. It allows us to "see in the dark". Napier's designs were truly mind blowing. He fit a huge amount of scenery onto that stage! This video is from a preview performance in London. LuPone stars.
