So, have any of you who are not in the theater or are not theater-students tried to watch tapes of productions the NY Performing Arts Library at Lincoln Center?

Sister Rose, PA Fan, and I had an excellent day at the library. We watched "Song & Dance" which I found thrilling and a glorious performance of "AGYG."

Take advantage of this amazing resource and go watch some historical BP!

Is this strictly for theater-related students or any student pursuing a career in performing arts or showbiz?? I'm assuming it's strictly theater students since they are all taped theater performances. I'm a communications student studying film and television...somehow I doubt that would count But I'd love to see some of Bernadette's legendary performances the next time I'm in the city.

All you need to watch is an access card which you pick up at the library and a "reason" to watch it. Like you are researching for school, are working on a related production, whatever.
PM me if you have any questions, I'll help ya get in

Chip proved his acting ability to be adequate and PA Fan and I were able to take part in the viewing. It was FANTASTIC! I am still high from watching AGYG and Song and Dance. The AGYG performance was just magnificent. Bernadette looked beautiful and so healthy and her voice sounded GREAT! I encourage you to check out their website and get your access card and then be prepared when they ask you why you want to see it - Chip told them that we were researching these shows for a project at school.

Sister, I take it you didn't see Bernadette in AGYG on stage? I saw it 4 or 5 times; I thought the songs fitted her voice/style/interpretation really well. I'll bet she sings 2 or 3 at the Boston concert, and you'll see what I mean (of course you've already seen on video but nothing like live).

I just recently listened to a few of her songs from AGYG and was reminded all over how much feeling she put into them.

I am CRYING because I never saw Bernadette live in anything besides Gypsy. I know that I would have seen AGYG over and over. Sniff. Moan. Weep. Wail.
