• ​West End | 1996 | EN: Maria Friedman (Fosca), Michael Ball (Giorgio), Helen Hobson (Clara) Notes: Fairly good video. Some generation loss and harsh lighting washout. Action can be followed, some close-ups. VOB + smalls | 4.00 GB

• ​Pasadena Playhouse | 7.June 1999 | House-Cam | EN: Eileen Barnett (Fosca), David Engel (Giorgio), Teri Bibb (Clara), Chuck Bergman (Lieutenant Barri), Ira Denmark (Sergeant Lombardi), Gordon Goodman (Ludovic), Michael G.

Recorded from the back of the theater on a tripod with lots of great zooms. Audio isn't soundboard, but it's exceptionally good regardless. Appears to be about one generation off from source - the source seems to have been recorded from DVD onto VHS and then onto another DVD - but shows no real signs of generation loss other than a couple occasionally visible pixels of static near the bottom of the image that never cover anything up.

• Hope Mill Theatre (Manchester) | May 2022 Highlights | hadesishere | NFTF | EN: Ruthie Henshall (Fosca), Kelly Price (Clara), Dean John-Wilson (Giorgio), Ray Shell (Doctor Tambourri), Tim Walton (Colonel Ricci), Juan Jackson (Count Ludovid / Lieutenant Barri), Steve Watts (Major Rizzolli / Fosca's Father), Charlie Waddell (Sergeant Lombardi / Mistress), Danny Whitehead (Private Augenti / Young Fosca), Adam Robert Lewis (Lieutenant Torasso / Fosca's Mother) Notes: Nice capture of this wonderful production. Shot in 4K with external audio synced. The cast is incredibly strong - especially Henshall, who is sublime as Fosca. Classing as highlights because the first 33 minutes are blindshot and miss most of the action. Some wandering, a few brief dropouts and obstruction at the bottom. Act 2 has more obstructions but is filmed considerably better. MP4 | 7.41 GB
