Ragtime Reunion Concert Will Stream Via PBS

Just an FYI. This makes me very happy. :)

Last year's one-night-only Ragtime reunion concert, a benefit for The Entertainment Community Fund, will air on PBS. Broadcasts begin November 29, but dates will vary according to location. Check local listings at PBS.org.

The performance will also stream for PBS Passport members beginning November 29.

OH MY GOD I am so excited about this. I was so sad I wasn't able to make it to NYC for this so very happy to hear this news. :)

This, 100%. I'm pretty savvy, but their new interface really isn't conducive for future programming. I can't find any future listings -- under the general PBS or my local station.

No, it isn't!

Early April's Fools.

Isn't this the second time that this was fully announced for release and then pulled? Does anyone have any idea how this could get close enough to happening that it was announced twice only for it to be pulled? What type of clown show is the ECF running over there?

To do this on the same day Audra begins “Gypsy” was just rude.

Are you able to talk about what the issues may be? It seems like there will be several theaters available soon so it wouldn't be theater availability.

I thought this was confirmed from Tom Kirdahy's people that a Bway transfer is not coming in this season

That this got announced and retracted not once but twice is a massive blunder. I don't know if that's on the ECF, or the estates, or a premature PBS announcement, but this is why you never announce this stuff until there is a signed contract.

And it's not the first time -- wasn't theWaitress capture announced for PBS then nixed?"

Sure was. I want to say at least one other Broadway thing was as well.
