This is making me want to see it again even more than I already do!

Aw. I hope it shows up somewhere online.

I'm so excited to see this in July.

What did the ABC "Salute" consist of?

I missed it.

Some gorgeous shots of the stage, interviews, footage of the recording session, and the hottest part, Matt talking about his workout regime while they showed him lifting weights in gym attire. Oh maaaan

I think it's being repeated at 5:30 this morning.

It was great. Interviews and behind the scenes with Kelli, Paulo, Matthew, Danny (and his wife Rebecca Luker), Loretta, Mary Rodgers, Bartlett Sher. Lots of clips of the show and backstage clips. And a few clips of the original stars.

I only caught the last ten or so minutes of it sadly. I'll have to wait for it to reair.

Dear Kelli O' Hara, I adore you and your amazing talent.

LadyRosecoe - Yeah baby! Matt talking about his workout regime while showing him lifting weights in gym attire... Oh maaan indeed. He also talks about how trying to look good & show his six-pack while singing from his diaphram (which pushes his stomach out) is an impossible task.

I can't wait to see it again in August from the 1st Row Center Orch. It's well worth the full price ticket I paid for it (twice)

I really enjoyed it, and like Em said, this makes me want to see it 10x more than before. I really hope a lot of people were able to see it.

Oh and Matt M - *drool**sigh*

I saw and enjoyed the SOUTH PACIFIC special on WABC, broadcast from NYC. Although I live 300 miles upstate, I can get the NYC stations for WABC, WNBC, WCBS and Fox on my Direct TV satellite dish. It also brings in the west coast feeds for those stations. The only thing I can't get is PBS for some stupid reason, so I have missed some great broadcasts of a few Broadway shows and other theatre related shows.

I asked this in another thread, but no one responded: How long do you think Kelli O'Hara and her co-star will remain in SOUTH PACIFIC? I have tickets for December 12th.
