I'll believe THAT [happily] when I see it. PBS???!!???"

It's been hemorrhaging millions since it premiered, largely due to the cost of the video projection system. People don't throw good money after bad. I highly doubt this was filmed; if it was, I don't believe PBS is involved at all. Probably a Lincoln Center thing.

It played at City Center. Why would Lincoln Center be involved?

Michael Cohl, David Sonenberg, and Tony Smith, per press announcements. I would wager Nederlander Worldwide now has some kind of stake as well, based on their involvement in the Seminole booking and by extension the Hard Rock deal whose existence I speculate about elsewhere in the thread.
