I think you need to see Radiant Baby at the library.

ann,I agree..isn't that odd? back in the days when i was still teaching for a studio and would find myself in nyc for a whole week at a time at a convention I'd have time to see even things that didn't register. I mean I paid the concierge for Lion King tickets because I thought it was time I saw it... i saw contact twice.... now, with three slots, and my 'special' needs,I can't fill them. I HAD to see matthew bourne's sleeping beauty so built in natasha pierre and a re-view of kinky boots around that....that was october.... i think.. now.. HELP. if I'm going to nyc I wanna see an original cast, but the pickings are slim.. I'm thrilled tho with violet and rocky.. I'm afraid I might (_____) when I see annie golden.... I just love her. but nothing else is screaming 'see mee" . I guess I'm a hard cookie. by the bye.. I hear Lin Manuel has a show coming up at the public in january. I've been to Nevis and the hamilton museum... combine the two and it almost becomes as imperative as my matthew bourne thing. but now.. ruh roh......

ok, i'm all for RADIANT BABY at the library because it is so fantastic but ... it's always going to be there. GENTLEMEN'S GUIDE and AFTER MIDNIGHT will disappear.

also, i have heard rumors that at some point in the future the performing arts collection will somehow be available for streaming. no clue when but about a year ago my branch had one of those how can we make the library better meetings and this came up.

the operative word is "rumor." No matter what some library employee may have said in passing at a meeting, it is not up to the library, and they would never ever get permission from all those who would have to consent. That is, unless someone comes up with a few billion dollars to compensate everyone and everyone's estate that would be involved.

have to justify seeing the production--actor, producer of shows, choreographers, etc. I know one can lie and see most shows by a simple statement (I was denied Jerome Robbins Broadway--i even went through the hoop to get permission from the lawyer running the estate and was denied). But it seems if anyone can stream the shows, that they will lose all control over the users.

We do have a poster who works there and provided the information for our FAQ entry. Hopefully, he'll chime in here if there's anything he can share.

jero loves Radiant Baby. And he's already commented on Gentleman's Guide and After Midnight. That's why I made the comment.
