| I, too, have seen many of those same screenings over the years, plus ''Love Never Dies,'' ''Miss Saigon,'' ''From Here to Eternity,'' etc. The first one I recall of note was ''Memphis'' (2011), which was shot on HD and looked and sounded sensational on the big screen. And after airing on PBS, it won the 2012 Emmy for its Technical Direction and Camera Work, beating out the Oscars and Grammys. Having been a big fan of ''Memphis,'' I was thrilled that Chad Kimball and Montego Glover's priceless performances were captured on tape. But the best one I've seen is ''Newsies.'' Fathom Events says it's been its biggest box office hit, among filmed stage shows, and it's even bringing it back one more time (July 26 and 28) to 600 movie theaters. Disney really did it up right. They brought back the show's original stars: like Jeremy Jordan, Kara Lindsay and Ben Fankhauser, and added several more dancers for the filming. Plus, it was shot from nearly every angle with 11 cameras. And it paid off: not only growing the ''Newsies'' fan base, but feeding into the various productions that sprung up across the country. |
