With Memphis being able to buy and own on DVD, which must be the first show to allow you to purchase a live movie recording of a show.

The Lincoln Center, Libary of the Performing Arts has nearly captured every show that has opened on the Great White Way since I believe 1974?

So if you could take one performance from there, what would it be?

Mine would be Chess

I think it would have to be Next to Normal.

Grease or Follies. Either actually since they are pretty much the same.

I believe I read they filmed the Raul Julia/Meryl Streep TAMING OF THE SHREW in the Park in 1978. Although my inclination would be to go musical, that production would be tempting.

I wish I could have Mazzie!N2N..although it wasn't recorded for the archive. And the only bootleg I can find is of her first performance, which is so different from what she did later on.

Give me claws and a hunch, just away from this bunch.

Crazy for You for sure. All that I can find of the original production is I Can't Be Bothered Now at the Tonys http://m.youtube.com/index?desktop_uri=%2F&gl=US#/watch?v=MbGdzR7vzYc and my cast album.

I really wish I could have seen OBC of Rent so either that or Ragtime.

EDIT: Oh Women On The Verge would have loved that one! Updated On: 12/7/11 at 08:48 PM

"Crazy for You" was broadcast on TV. There must be a copy somewhere.
