I just bought the DVD of "Broadway's Lost Treasures." Does anyone know when these scenes were filmed? Are they Tony Broadcasts? Are they filmed in the theatres where the shows took place? Does anyone know? I'm wondering because some of them are on full sets and some are just on a blank stage.

Thanks in advance.

You know I really don't know. I saw a bit of it on PBS and most of them seemed to be Tony performances, in fact that's what they are supposed to be! But the CATS performance is full stage (which is awesome!) and some others to. So maybe they were pre filmed for the Tonys? I don't know.... I'm just mad that PHANTOM was not included....

They were all taken from Tony Awards Broadcasts, which would also mean they were filmed in whatever theater the Tonys took place in that year.

So then when CATS won the Tonys were filmed on-stage at the Winter Garden?

It had to be. They couldn't possibly have moved the whole set to Gershwin.

Sounds cool...I really liked the look of the Gershwin though...big but very beautiful i thought.
