PBS joins the trend of offering free online streams of musicals/plays

Hopefully we can also get classics such as 'The Light in the Piazza' and 'South Pacific'... c'mon PBS, if the National Theatre worked out the contracts, you can too!

That link I attached has all the productions they are now offering, but you can also check out this updating list:

I want to see some of the older stuff like Contact, Light in the Piazza and South Pacific. They must have higher quality versions than the ones going around. Stream those!

I searched for Great Performances and by looking at Seasons 45, 46 & 47 they have SHE LOVES ME, HOLIDAY INN, 42ND STREET, AN AMERICAN IN PARIS thru KINKY BOOTS. Also the Harold Prince documentary and lots of other stuff.

Enjoy!"

 

It only works if you are a paid PBS member, just checked (in NY).
