Live theatre does not use a "soundtrack." If it did, it wouldn't be live theatre!

Do they archive it online so I can listen to it an any other time?

Actually the online version is just a live fed of what is broadcast on FOXY. Sorry, no archive available. (In fact I don't even have copies of the program myself!)

I'm listening now! I like the way you tell the story and blend in the songs. But why did you use the older version of 42 Street? I think the revival cast is better.

I chose to use the original cast because it is a better recording, and more closely aproximates the two local productions we are promoting.
