For Your Theatrical Viewing Pleasure...


For all you theatre-starved folks out there in the world, allow me to say...the world of Live Theatre has got your back!  A number of Companies from around the world have begun posting links to live and recorded streams of some of their very best work, including Disney, England's National Theatre and Andrew Lloyd Webber's personal catalog.

I'll be posting on a reasonably frequent basis how to get to some of these online viewing opportunities.  If you're in one of my classes, then viewing theatre will be an available learning opportunity (as I mentioned in the class announcements earlier this week); if you're not in one of my classes (but why wouldn't you be...really?), then consider these as some interesting options to see some live theatre...but not really live.  Anyway...

Here are a few links for this week:

National Theatre Live - This Week: Treasure Island (April 16-22)

The Shows Must Go On!/Lloyd Webber - This Week: The Phantom Of The Opera (April 17-18)

Disney On Broadway - Celebrating 25 Magical Years (April 17)

Other Listings (from Filmed Onstage): LINK

...And from the Geek Files: A reunion table read with the cast of the TV show Chuck -
Chuck vs. COVID-19 (April 17)

Enjoy!
