George Gershwin – Porgy & Bess / Trevor Nunn · Sir Simon Rattle · W. White · C. Haymon · Glyndebourne Opera


$15.03


This powerful production originated on the stage of the Glyndebourne Festival. It was restaged and filmed on location for the BBC telecast preserved in this video recording. Director Trevor Nunn takes full advantage of the realism, fluidity of movement, and precision of small details that are difficult to achieve when televising a staged performance but easy and natural in a movie treatment. Nunn’…

Les Miserables Original London Cast


Les Miserables Original London Cast


$17.23


This recording captures the 1985 London cast that transformed an obscure French musical based on Victor Hugo’s gargantuan novel of pre-Revolutionary France into a worldwide phenomenon throughout the late-’80s and ’90s and became one of the best examples of the era’s trend of blockbuster musical spectacles. Yes, Alain Boublil and Claude-Michel Schoenberg’s score tends to recycle its themes, but the…

Jesus Christ Superstar: The Original Motion Picture Soundtrack Album


Jesus Christ Superstar: The Original Motion Picture Soundtrack Album


$17.27


This 1974 Norman Jewison film may have been a critical misstep, but some fans actually preferred it to Broadway’s rock spectacle. The thing is, Jesus Christ Superstar was first introduced as a two-disc rock opera, not unlike the Who’s Tommy, as it even scored several Top 40 hits.

1776 [VHS]


$9.50


The hit Broadway musical by Peter Stone and Sherman Edwards became the basis for this 1972 film about America’s first congress and the nation’s declaration of independence from Britain. Most of the original cast members are aboard, including William Daniels as John Adams. The film is a little stodgy and moves stiffly from scene to scene–the adaptation to the screen is not a smooth success. But it…

Into the Woods [VHS]


$3.94


Fractured fairy tales of a darker hue provide the remarkable context for Into the Woods, which deconstructs the Brothers Grimm by way of Rod Serling. While the faces and names are familiar, Cinderella, Rapunzel, Little Red Riding Hood, and company inhabit a sylvan neighborhood in which witches and bakers are next-door neighbors, handsome princes from once-parallel fables are competitive (and equal…

Thornton Wilder’s Pulitzer Prize-winning play brings to life the fate and foibles of the celebrated Antrobus family–a bold and brassy embodiment of Wilder’s vision of the American people. This eloquent comedy serves up an allegorical tale of one American family whose members must come to grips with their destinies. Having survived fire, flood, pestilence, seven-year locusts, the Ice Age, and a do…
