Just in time for this week's international movie theater broadcast of the simply must-see Shakespeare's Globe Film Series production of HENRY IV: Part 2 on August 18, Vice President of NCM Fathom, Dan Diamond, was kind enough discuss with me the role his company plays in bringing major entertainment events to movie screens around the world - such as Shakespeare‘s Globe Film Series, Stephen Sondheim's COMPANY: IN CONCERT, the Tony-winning Best Musical MEMPHIS, the 25th Anniversary concert presentation of LES MISEABLES, Metropolitan Opera broadcasts, ballet, sports events like last year's WIMBELDON in 3D, as well as the August 31 re-release of the new HD print of Brian DePalma's SCARFACE - plus, most importantly, what the eminently exciting future holds for Fathom. Additionally, we touch on upcoming innovations coming to a movie theater near you courtesy of Fathom, such as 4D and lensless 3D technologies and the possibility they hold for capturing live theatre on film, as well as the ever-expanding company's goals for improving the local arts scene in communities large and small, world-wide. In the age of GLEE bringing theatre to a larger audience than ever before, the time is surely right for feature film presentations in the cinema of the best of Broadway and live performance - as well the plans to present all 37 of Shakespeare's plays - and Diamond's commitment and passion for his work comes through in this expansive conversation touching on virtually every aspect of what makes Fathom so fascinating and a formative, necessary element in the foundering and sustaining of a local and national arts scene connected by a network of movie theaters. If all that were not enough, Diamond also clues us in on some future showings such as the new Ozzy Osbourne documentary by his son, Jack, the upcoming Floyd Mayweather boxing match and, just maybe, the upcoming 25th Anniversary production of THE PHANTOM OF THE OPERA slated for October.
