THE LAST FIVE YEARS – Pro-Shot
Vienna, 2007
Caroline Frank, Rob Fowler
(VOB)
Not our review: “Quality: A++ A couple of weird moments in the video where the camera seems to be different and the sound quality degrades. Doesn’t take away from the enjoyment of the show at all though! Different staging from the original Broadway production, especially the blocking! Caroline is a decent Cathy but Rob definitely outshines her as Jamie!”
LES MISERABLES
Broadway, May 18, 2003 – Closing Highlights
Randal Keith, Michael McCarthy, Jayne Paterson, Kevin Kern, Diana Kaarina, Sandra Turley, Christopher Mark Peterson, Nick Wyman, Aymee Garcia, David McDonald
(VOB)
Not our review: “HIGHLIGHTS, 65 minutes long. Final Broadway performance. The numbers included are One Day More, On My Own, Bring Him Home, A Little Fall Of Rain, Javert’s Death, Empty Chairs At Empty Tables, and Finale. Includes the curtain speeches and numbers from a high school cast performance.
Quality: A-. Some heads, especially during standing ovations, but some of the best filming and best video quality I’ve ever seen in a boot. Wonderful performances all around. The very last *note* of the One Day More Reprise cuts off abruptly, very annoying.”

Not our review: “most of the show, starts when the backdrop falls in Hannibal, missing Magical Lasso & Notes, includes Romick’s BC/EFA speech, nice, steady filming, mostly in mid-zooms and close-up, taper follows the show extremely well, filmed from last row of mezzanine, few brief covers up due to ushers, A-“
