Oh wow! I wish I would have been born earlier so I could have seen it when it originally aired( I was born in 89). It's just fascinating to see everyone!!

Oh, PJ, you made me cry at work! Hearing Kay hit that note at the end of "At the Ballet" did me in...the way everyone clung to each other was just too much.

Hugs and thank you!!

Mark Evanier has linked to this on his weblog as an imbed, so that all the parts play into each other and you don't have to click between the parts.

Oh my goodness. What a trip back in time! Yes, I did tear up a bit. In the concluding clip, who was that very handsome guy to the right of Baayork Lee wearing the white shirt? Thanks to the person who put this all together. RC in Austin, Texas

I love that none of them seem interested when Baayork talks.

This makes me cry every time.

And, to think, Kelly Bishop still looks the same.

Thanks so much PJ...this absolutely had me tears. I couldn't have ended my week on a better note.

I love the close-ups of the audience members during Dance:10, Looks: 3? It's so 90s. Did you see the older gentleman at the end? He went nuts

Patti LuPone FANatic, I think that's the guy who played Larry (17)

That was terrific. Thanks so much PJ.

Yes, Curious... that was Clive Clerk (later called Clive Wilson). But alas, I saw on IMDB that he passed away in 2005.

Once again, very moving.

Thanks for bumping this, ggersten! I just sent an email to Mark Evanier thanking him for linking them. Is he a friend of yours?

This should be available on DVD. I'd buy it in a heartbeat just to watch "At The Ballet" over and over.

Here's an idea-
When that ACL documentary (Is it still in the works?) comes out on DVD, this clip should be part of the bonus features.

[PalJoey]

Still buzzing from that documentary. If you haven't seen it yet, go see it!

(Odd. I don't see my post. My computer has gremlins...)

I am searching for the threads you posted when the revival was opening on Broadway in 2006, PJ. I think I need to re-read them!

[PalJoey]

It's called "Listening to ACL OCR" and it's on the Off-Topic Board.

Thank you so much for bumping that thread!

I am saving it to make sure I have it forever!

Truly amazing. Thank you for posting. I am going to see this show for the first time tomorrow at Shea's Performing Arts Center in Buffalo. I can't wait. It's received stellar reviews.

And as far as I can tell from my quick research, I believe two of the original cast members who appeared on Donahue are no longer with us.. Clive Wilson Clerk and Thommie Walsh. Correct me if I'm wrong but I'm hoping the rest of these truly talented performers are still with us.

Michael Stuart (Greg) was killed in automobil accident on 7 Sept 1991.
Thommie Wlash (Bobby) passed awy due to lymphoma on 16 June 2007.
Cameron "Rick" Mason (Mark) passed away due to complications from HIV on 13 April 1992.
Clive "Clerk" Wilson (Larry) passed away on 22 June 2005.

Oh wow. So sad. It makes the Donahue performance even more powerful. It had to be the last time the OBC was together.

The documentary is showing in Denver on June 6th. it will be my birthday gift to myself.
