OK - this is for the fans of Woman in White
since we're losing both productions, and there hasn't been a new CD made of the Broadway cast, I sent the following email today hoping they would consider filming the Broadway production (like they did BY Jeeves in Canada) so we would at least have that for posterity's sake.
Here's my email. Maybe if enough people on this Board who do like this show let their feelings known they would consider this before it's too late:
To Whom It May Concern:
I have to tell you how saddened I am to hear that The Woman in White will be closing in London and New York. I saw it on Broadway during previews a week before it opened and was so happy to see something that was original, and groundbreaking in theatre after and endless run of musical comedy, and "jukebox musicals."
Considering that the Broadway cast never was able to record the score for CD taking the alterations to story and score that have been made, and the sudden closing of this show on both sides of the Atlantic, would Really Useful Company consider filming the show (in the way that you filmed By Jeeves right after it closed in Canada)? It would allow the fans to have Maria Friedman's and the rest of this wonderful cast's performances captured vocally and visually.
Sincerely,
