Company 1970 Documentary
Stephen Sondheim's musical "Company" opened on Broadway in the Spring of 1970, and tradition dictates that the cast recording is done on the first Sunday after opening night. D.A. Pennebaker, the now-legendary documentarian, filmed the production of the original cast recording, the back and forth between Sondheim and the performers, and the dynamic of trying to record live performance.The film climaxes with Elaine Stritch's performance of "The Ladies Who Lunch".The show won 6 Tony Awards including "Best Musical" and ran for two years on Broadway.

Patti says, "Good afternoon," not "Good evening," so it is the matinee, not the night performance as on the other disk. It is a completely new video which has just surfaced. Well filmed with amazing clarity for being so old. There is some obstruction occasionally on the left side of the picture, looks like it might be a cloth or something the filmer used to hide his camera.
