@Robert Lee, Countertenor it was actually filmed during the last year of the show on Broadway which would have been 89. I read the original cast came back for a week of shows in which they recorded the show over a period of days...then it wasn’t aired on PBS til a few years later...I remember that original airing it was amazing!
@@Itstonytime77 I also noticed that this press reel had preview type lyrics and the wolf started off less wolf if you know what I mean? in the PBS recording they redid his costume and a couple of the others cause they look slitly and definitely different from the recording.
After watching the 1991 filmed version of this, watching this and noticing the tiny differences in the lyrics and delivery was so fun! Thanks for posting :)
omg i when to go see into the woods 1987 and its was lit OMG I fell in love with Into the Woods I kept going over and over to see the show every night every night
They are specific money sting moments to use at the end of a segment. The interview will say something like ‘It’s Halloween tonight and I’ll be grabbing a ticket’ cue wolf etc
Some different lyrics? "How about a piggy?" I'd have to check but this also seems to be from a period where the "Though it's fearful" round went in multiple parts for longer.
I'm this is 8y ago but I have to comment this is my first time seeing this channel and is named “your gonna love tomorrow” and I am bc I'm going to Florida!!
@Robert Lee, Countertenor the taped version was actually filmed in May or so of 1989 near the end of its run. They brought the original cast back for a week in order to preserve it. It just didn’t air on PBS until 1991
No they film an EPK (electronic press kit) specifically for new stations, reviewers etc to pull footage from. Often they are filmed with no audience at all
@@jalilspeaks278 They generally put the sound of the audience in. They need this footage for news stations etc to air the day after opening night, along with the reviews - all of this material is prepared in advance.
What they often used to do is erect a floor on truss over the seating, so that the camera is on the same height as the stage and they can also have moving shots. They seem to d that a lot less now that camera equipment is so advanced but some of the really big hitters still do it. If they are filming an advert specifically they also set up cameras on stage so they can swoop through the action (the Wicked trailers often have that sort of camera work) Mary Poppins spent a week filming their last one. The footage for Into the Woods as shown here however is a traditional electronic press kit and none of it was filmed with an audience present.
Am I the only one that thinks some of the performers sounded more out of breath in this recording than others, such as Robert Westenberg in "Hello, Little Girl" and Chip in "It Takes Two," and many of the people in the finale sound the same way. Not that I'm knocking the performance at all, it's wonderful! But it is rather strange to me.
It's so cool seeing the original makeup since everything was obviously plused up for the PBS filming.

The definitive production,all parts played to perfection!
May we just talk about how clip 8 is just a collection of random shots and noises with no damn context given.

R u in NYC? I feel like we'd be good friends. Sounds weird but I just want to meet theater people

Kinda wish the PBS version kept the skrim going up at the end of the prologue.

ikr
Yeah-especially Bernadette!
Interesting Danielle Ferland comes off significantly younger here than the PBS tape
