I know this probably belongs on the West End board, but it features many West End productions of popular Broadway shows.

Check out "the singer called Alf" at the beginning.

Can't seem to find episodes #3 - #5, but these are a great start!

I thank you for posting the update. I really enjoyed watching the first two episodes. Even though most of the featured shows are gone. I found it very informative and interesting. Thanks again!

Who knew Mrs. Patmore was in MAMMA MIA? It's great seeing her footage, too.

Thanks PattyO. Thanks for showing this. I never knew this series existed. I'm seeing SMASH in a few minutes, so I had to stop watching Episode 1. By the way, do any of the segments over "Chicago"? By the way, luv your name. from RC in Austin, Texas USA


"Noel [Coward] and I were in Paris once. Adjoining rooms, of course. One night, I felt mischievous, so I knocked on Noel's door, and he asked, 'Who is it?' I lowered my voice and said 'Hotel detective. Have you got a gentleman in your room?' He answered, 'Just a minute, I'll ask him.'" (Beatrice Lillie)

Yes, it's featured on Episode #3. Ironically, this episode #3 also features Jack Davenport from SMASH...after you check out the latest SMASH, tune in: http://www.youtube.com/watch?v=X_mtHxi6HJw&list=PLm5qT57OJdN6ScJSRlCPqjm514DKkuVB8

Also, really enjoy hearing about/witnessing the superstitions, rituals, and behind-the-scenes scoop.

I was in one of the episodes of this and lost the video tape it was on (I wanted to show it to my father) - thanks for the link! :)
