I'm not sure what you mean. Sondheim's Off-Broadway production of ROAD SHOW was recorded and there was already a recording of its earlier incarnation (Bounce). Sondheim is a different story though.
I do hope CARRIE gets recorded.

And, in addition to being Sondheim, Road Show was also produced by a company with slightly deeper pockets than MCC.

I'll start something on Kickstarter for it AND start a petition AND a Facebook page.

There are uncredited commercial producers who have financially "enhanced" this production. Theoretically, they could contribute to the costs of recording a cast album, but I don't think we'll see one.
Tonya Pinkins: Then we had a "Lot's Wife" last June that was my personal favorite. I'm still trying to get them to let me sing it at some performance where we get to sing an excerpt that's gone.
Tony Kushner: You can sing it at my funeral.

Perhaps I am overly optimistic and naive but I'm surprised that you guys think the chances of an album are so low. The show has never been recorded before and is an infamous cult classic. If they are planning to licence the show a recording would be helpful. Also, the show seems to be almost selling out every night and selling all of the premium tickets, which can't hurt.
Someone somewhere (even if the creative team) must be willing to shell out for a cast recording...
Less notable off-broadway musicals are recorded all the time.
I wonder if a Broadway transfer is being considered and whether they would wait though etc.

Give me claws and a hunch, just away from this bunch.

I'm fairly certain that I've read that they will, in fact, be recording this show. I can't remember where I saw that though. To be honest, it'd surprise me if they didn't record this production.

I'd be surprised if they recorded it - it's being produced on a very tenuous shoestring.
And "almost selling out every night" in a 250 seat theatre is nothing to boast about.

I would imagine, especially this show, it depends a lot on the reviews (I would think the creative team avoiding Broadway over the years was because of those awful, awful reviews) and if the creators think "this is the version" in stone.

If they plan on eventually licensing the material (in this revised version) I would imagine they will record it.
Tickets From $80
Tickets From $56
Tickets From $87
Tickets From $102
