THEATRE BUZZ

 

+ BroadwayHD is a subscription on-demand digital streaming service created by Tony Award-winning producers Stewart F. Lane and Bonnie Comley (“A Gentleman's Guide to Love & Murder”).  It records and distributes live theater performances and previously recorded theatrical productions. 
 
The service costs $8.99 per month or $99.00 for a year.  It offers a 7-day free trial.
 
The blog BROADWAY LOVER (“reviews and news about everything Broadway and more”) posted a “review” of the service and answered the question “BroadwayHD:Is it worth it?” -
 
So, is BroadwayHD worth it? My answer would be yes. Anyone who even remotely likes theater can find something to watch and there is very little chance of having major trouble with it. While I can't speak about the livestreams, I can say that their video library is 100% worth the price of the subscription and will certainly make any theater lover happy.”
 
+ From TOWN HALL in NYC -
 
Siblings Rufus, Martha and Lucy Wainwright bring their beloved Christmas show “A Not So Silent Night – Virtually Together” to a global audience for the first time streaming live on veeps.com on December 20th.  They will be joined by aunts, mothers, fathers, nieces, cousins, sons and daughters of the acclaimed musical clans of the Wainwrights, McGarrigles and Roches.  The show will be accessible for purchase and stream until January 6th 2021.
 
The performance will support the Kate McGarrigle Fund.  The Fund provides funding for sarcoma research as well as music therapy resources to cancer patients with a passion for music.
