Posted: 2/9/07 at 3:56pmthere are no plans for a recording of this production.

Posted: 2/9/07 at 3:58pmThe lackluster reviews probably killed any chance of a recording, like it did with Roundabout's THREEPENNY revival.
"You travel alone because other people are only there to remind you how much that hook hurts that we all bit down on. Wait for that one day we can bite free and get back out there in space where we belong, sail back over water, over skies, into space, the hook finally out of our mouths and we wander back out there in space spawning to other planets never to return hurrah to earth and we'll look back and can't even see these lives here anymore. Only the taste of blood to remind us we ever existed. The earth is small. We're gone. We're dead. We're safe."

Yes, there is.
PS Classics has picked this up in addition to 110 IN THE SHADE.

Posted: 2/9/07 at 4:00pmreally? is there a link for that news? i was informed that offer has now been nixed.

Posted: 2/9/07 at 4:04pmThere were talks Foa, but its been months since anything else has come about. I'm assuming its not happening, though, nobody thought the Pacific OVertures revival would be recorded but it eventually came to be after the show closed.

Posted: 2/9/07 at 4:11pmIt hasn't been nixed, they're still promoting the album at the theater.

the latest buzz is that it's being recorded after the show closes with a release date in April or early May

Posted: 2/9/07 at 5:30pmThat has been the buzz since the show started previews.

This may be a dumb question but if they are to release a cast recording, wouldn't it be better to do it while the show is still running so they could sell it at the theatre? Make more money? A person who is seeing the show and likes it may buy a CD if it is right in front of their face, but not necessarily go looking to buy it a few months after they saw it. IF they are planning on recording, what's the point of waiting a few months?
I do know that 110 is being recorded by PS Classics. Just in case anyone took that as being old news along with The Apple Tree.

Many limited runs have had Cast Recordings well after the show closed.
I'd assume Ps Classics would hook up again with Nonesuch for 110, since Audra has a record deal with them.

Posted: 2/9/07 at 7:37pmI know many have been recorded after the show closed, but I'm asking if the company knows they are going to record something why wouldn't they do it while it was still running as opposed to waiting.

Time may be a factor in why it may not be recorded until after the show... Just guessing...
I certainly hope this happens. The music is beautiful, and I would love a recording featuring Kristin. I agree that they could have sold a great deal of albums at the show.
So, that was the Drowsy Chaperone. Oh, I love it so much. I know it's not a perfect show...but it does what a musical is supposed to do. It takes you to another world, and it gives you a little tune to carry with you in your head for when you're feeling blue. Ya know?

I sent an email to PS Classics asking about the truth to the rumors, and this was their response...
"Thanks for writing. I'm afraid that one's just a rumor. Some record label may well be looking at recording APPLE TREE, but it's not us."

Posted: 2/10/07 at 12:36pmI heard from one source that Sony Classical, the label that Kristin belongs to, might be recording it and one person asked the merchandise counter guy about it and they said that it will be released in April.
