"The nudity in South Pacific did make it into the broadcast, and I believe there is a copy of Passion floating around with the nudity in. I haven't seen it, but I've seen it on trader's lists. "

Now I'm all the more upset about missing the chance to record South Pacific. (Feel free anyone if you know of a site to find a download of it...)

Thanks for the correction JC and everyone about Passion. I remember a piece in The Sondheim Review when it was about to be filmed where Lapine talked about plans to film two versions of the opening, but it seems he changed his mind at the last minute.

Liza's Headband--that's the regular "non-nudity" version filmed without an audience (random comment, but I usually prefer live shows are filmed with an audience--I hate pieces like Oklahoma! where they use a soundstage but they impose audience reaction shots--but it probably was smart to film Passion without one.) I suppose you do get to see a bit of side breast, but...

I am stunned by that clip of "Steambath." I had never heard of it. Wow.

^Would Passion with or without an audience really make a difference? If it's done right there's really no opportunity for applause until the very end. Would you really be able to tell the difference in energy on film?

If it's being taped, then it's not "Live" from Lincoln Center.

And I'm upset that my DVD of the broadcast got lost in my last move. I'm constantly wanting to rewatch it and am always disappointed to find it nowhere in my apartment!

I wonder why The Nance and not War Horse or Golden Boy or Other Desert Cities or Vanya & Sonya & Masha & Spike?

Has anybody gotten an email from theblacklistnyc either confirming or denying tickets yet?

[ClydeBarrow]

Posted: 8/10/13 at 1:40am

I haven't gotten any email and it says they're notify you by Tuesday at noon at the latest but the first performance is at 2pm on Tuesday...

[aasjb4ever]

Was it 2 or 3 pm on Tuesday?

My friends (non-theatregoers) and I will be in the city that day so I'm hoping we can get in, but also know if we'll even have the tickets...

aasjb4ever, Tuesday's show is 3pm

They are still taking names for the Tuesday and Wed (2pm) show, I'll take that as a positive sign of getting tickets. Although they did emphasize if tickets are available in the confirmation email. It also stated they will contact you via email with a detailed confirmation in a few days, latest by noon, Tuesday. I would think if you put in for the Tuesday show you will be notified sooner.

I hope I'd know at least a day or two in advance...thanks for your help!

I am so pleased that this is going to be recorded, that beautiful set and Nathan's performance need to be documented.

PlayItAgain, those other productions have a way to get to audiences past the specific runs this year e.g. movie adaptions, regional productions
And this production probably doesn't, plus it's Nathan Lane.

Signed up for tickets and my fingers are crossed.

I'm surprised that Lincoln Center Theater didn't make this offer available to members. Or even just sent around an e-mail! The only way I heard about it was from Broadway World. Odd.

They probably want an audience who will react to the show in ways other than screaming "WHAT DID HE SAY?!" and unwrapping hard candies for 2 hours that they'll have to try to edit out in post production along with the non stop stream of coughing and hacking up the hard candies they had tried so hard to open up the entire first act of the show.

That's probably why they're offering the tickets on the new interweb thingee that the younger kids use.

The Tuesday taping is at 3:00pm. I am waiting to see if I got a ticket.

"That's probably why they're offering the tickets on the new interweb thingee that the younger kids use."


Yes, younger kids who text and don't shut off their phones so they actually ring during the performance.

Nobody's perfect.

Pretty much the only time I ever see phones out and hear them ringing in the theater is with older theatre goers.

Same. If I have to sit through another show or a movie with an elderly woman digging through her purse, trying to find her phone, not being able to see, and unable to figure out how to turn her phone off...

Has anyone heard back about tickets yet?

I went to a matinee of THE NANCE, and there were THREE cell phone rings around me in the mezzanine all from old(er) ladies. I think young LCT patrons are more phone/candy/whatnot-concious than the blue-haired crowd.

Also...SPOILERS!!!...the older crowd at the matinee didn't seem to get that the "Hortense" monologue wasn't a standard comedy routine.

Hoping I can get a ticket. Do they have different playbills for these?

Regarding ticket, my guess is we will start to find out tomorrow when normal business hours resume in offices. They probably let e-mails accumulate over the weekend and will begin to fill requests tomorrow.

I just got an email confirming my tix. I'm very excited for this!

Which performance(s) did you guys hear about? (I was wondering because it would make sense if it was tomorrow's. I tried for Wed. night so I'm wondering if they might not have gotten there yet.)

Just got an email confirmation. Cool!
