Media Alert

Tomorrow (Thursday), the BroadwayHD website will be streaming a live performance from Broadway of the wonderful Harnick & Bock musical, She Loves Me.  This is of particular note because it's the first time in Broadway history that a performance will be streamed live online.  (There have been live performances on TV, though.  But if this works, it would be a step for the future.)

She Loves Me has a score by Sheldon Harnick and Jerry Bock, who wrote Fiddler on the Roof, and the Pulitzer Prize-winning (and Tony Best Musical, Fiorello!.  The 1963 show is based on a Hungarian play that also served as the basis of several movies, including The Shop Around the Corner and You've Got Mail.  

This new production stars Laura Bernanti, Zachary Levi and Jane Krakowski.  It was nominated for a Tony Award this year as Best Revival of a Musical.  

You can watch it live on the Broadway HD website (which you can get here), and the stream begins at 8 PM East Coast Time.  If you're a subscriber to Broadway HD, the show is included in the subscription, otherwise it costs $10.

Here's the presentation for the show from the recent Tony Awards.
