Comments

Single camera filming from the balcony to the right of stage

Good clear view throughout with some nice close ups

Sound is near perfect.

This would have been one of the best BEtM videos

had the filmer not had a slight error with his camera

that causes a small, but bright blue, spot to appear just below 

the center of the picture. where it dances about for the entire show.

However, that aside, there is Leah Hocking's version of Mrs. W 

which differs somewhat from Haydn's.
