YES

I don’t know. I hope so. But I highly doubt it. Maybe! Who knows? Jesus. Jesus knows.

I love Sweeney with all my heart but at this point in time I want the Guy's and Dolls concert televised the most!

It's still horrifying to me that the one shot Ragtime Concert last February with that AMAZING cast was NOT televised..or even officially recorded.

I really hope this gets recorded in some way/shape/form

I couldn't access the article...are we SURE? I don't want to get my hopes up...

"The article you requested is not available." WTF??

Erin Mackey also stated on this week's Broadway Radio/This Week on Broadway that it would be recorded. She seemed confident that there would be a PBS airing, but not sure if there would be a limited-time theatrical release, like through Fathom Events.

I'll take an airing of this any day of the week! Is it too early to start clearing my DVR?

[Jordan Catalano]

Posted: 3/5/14 at 10:19am

I would doubt it would air before at least the Fall. But since I wasn't going to be able to see it live, I don't care how long I have to wait!

Remember when "Live" meant "Live"?

[mschwager]

Posted: 3/5/14 at 10:53am

Do we think a CD release is asking too much?

[promisespromises2]

Posted: 3/5/14 at 10:54am

How does this work? Do they film every show and just pick the best one?

[Phyllis Rogers Stone]

Posted: 3/5/14 at 1:06pm

There aren't nearly enough video versions of Sweeney available.

[Jordan Catalano]

Posted: 3/5/14 at 1:07pm

LOL.

I don't care, I'm still happy I'll get to see this.

Seriously, bring on Emma Thompson. I was so sad I'd miss her playing Lovett.

[Sthunderrocker]

Posted: 3/5/14 at 1:45pm

This has been the plan from the beginning. It is being filmed on Saturday. Presumably both performances...
"This Fellowship will last from first rehearsal on February 17 through filming on March 8"

Audra is hosting the broadcast, so presumably she'll be there Saturday doing interviews between performances. Updated On: 3/5/14 at 01:45 PM
