Comments: One of the best, if not THE best, audience filmed musicals I've ever seen!!!! Single camera shooting from the balcony slightly to stage left. Great view of the entire stage, with some wonderful close up in crystal quality clear but with some very brief  'cover up' moment Sound is brilliant throughout. Both discs are  fully authored, with motion menus and track/scene selection.

Comments: Single camera filming from the balcony to stage right Good view of the stage most of the time with some very nice close ups, but there are some cover up moments sounds if great but does get muffled during the short periods the camera is hidden. The performance from the entire cast is OUTSTANDING.
