Let’s deep dive and discuss why we have so few pro-shot Broadway shows. Lots of talk on Hamilton, broadway, movie musicals, money, bootlegs, and more– so let’s dive in.
???????? OPEN ME ????????
Hi theatre friends! It’s been about a week since the Hamilton pro-shot aired on Disney + and my timeline has been flooded with praise for the show— and rightfully so! But I’ve also been seeing a lot of confusion, questions, and anger toward the broadway community from the fans. Everyone’s asking: We got Hamilton…why can’t we get more pro shots? So today, we’re break all that down and explain why professional recordings of musicals are so hard to make happen. There’s such a limited amount of info on this topic, so I pulled together what I could. I just wish we had more transparency from these companies…
QOTD: If you could have any musical get the #Hamilton on #Disney+ pro-shot treatment, which musical(s) would you choose? Let me know in the comments below!

A little bit of info on HAMILTON; from Wikipedia:
Hamilton is a musical with music, lyrics, and book by Lin-Manuel Miranda that tells the story of American Founding Father Alexander Hamilton. Inspired by the 2004 biography Alexander Hamilton by historian Ron Chernow, the show’s music draws heavily from hip hop, as well as R&B, pop, soul, and traditional-style show tunes; the show also casts non-white actors as the Founding Fathers and other historical figures. Through this use of modern storytelling methods, Hamilton has been described as being about "America then, as told by America now."
From its first opening, Hamilton received critical acclaim.The show premiered at the Public Theater, Off-Broadway on February 17, 2015, where its engagement was sold out; it won eight Drama Desk Awards, including Outstanding Musical. It then transferred to the Richard Rodgers Theatre on Broadway, opening on August 6, 2015, where it received uniformly positive reviews and strikingly high box office sales. At the 2016 Tony Awards, Hamilton received a record-setting 16 nominations, eventually winning 11 awards, including Best Musical. It received the 2016 Pulitzer Prize for Drama.
The musical details Hamilton’s life in two acts, along with how various historical characters influenced his life such as Gilbert du Motier, Marquis de Lafayette, Aaron Burr, John Laurens, Hercules Mulligan, Elizabeth Schuyler Hamilton, Angelica Schuyler, Peggy Schuyler, Philip Hamilton, and former presidents George Washington, James Madison, and Thomas Jefferson.
