Cast albums are NOT "soundtracks."
Live theatre does not use a "soundtrack." If it did, it wouldn't be live theatre!

I host a weekly one-hour radio program featuring cast album selections as well as songs by cabaret, jazz and theatre artists. The program, FRONT ROW CENTRE is heard Sundays 9 to 10 am and also Saturdays from 8 to 9 am (eastern times) on www.proudfm.com

In London, the original production of My Fair Lady and the 2001 revival both played the Theatre Royal Drury Lane, the original production of Chicago played at the Cambridge Theatre and the current revival played there for 5 years after transferring from the Adelphi before transferring again to its current home, the Garrick and Annie played at the Victoria Palace in 1978 and had a revival in 1998.

The amazing original production of "On Your Toes" was remounted in London at the Collesium and only ran for 88 performances (go figure) but the revival ran there for longer than the show ran on Broadway in 1985.

If Les Mis gets a real revival someday I would love it if it was at the Imperial
