Bially, do you mean movie adaptations (Chicago) or musicals that were simply filmed in a theatre (Sunday In The Park With George)?

Have you check Broadwayarchive? Not much in way of musicals, but plenty of classic plays.

Yes, they were. I got the first one as a gift this past Christmas, the second one I bought a couple of years ago. I don't have the third, but I've seen it on Amazon.com.

I believe all broadway shows are filmed for historical documentation. And they are held in archives at the lincoln center library i think.

Yes, they are, but you can only see them if you have a specific reason to do so, i.e. research. The average person cannot just walk into the library and ask to see any particular tape.
