Notes from other traders: Running a total of 2h30 minutes, this was obviously a working session, and the performers were not using microphones. Since the recorder was located in proximity of the piano (or most likely on top of it), the music is much louder than the voices, barely audible. Therefore I doubt there is a clearer version out there. Really worth it for the rarity though. A fascinating glimpse at the working process on this fabulous show.

juniper47’s master
Notes from the master: Second night of performances. Sara Bareilles flubs the lyrics to “Moments in the Woods”. Dialogue is a little soft compared to the songs and audience reactions, and some hiss from boosting the volume, but still a good audio.

Notes from the master: Sara Bareilles went up on “Moments in the Woods” and had to restart a verse. Also, it was a very loud audience. Beware of applause. Do not ever sell this audio.

juniper47’s master
Notes from the master: Recorded from the balcony, but used different setting so turned out better than May 5’s audio. A couple minor line flubs (Sara Bareilles makes one in the Prologue, and Denée drops a line in “Your Fault”), and a super responsive audience.

BlueEyesOnBroadway’s master
Notes from the master: Recorded from Mezz. Sara stumbles over a word and corrects herself quickly at 62:25 in Act 1, but NPH points out her error and they have a silly exchange to end the scene. Lots of audience laughter throughout the show.

Notes from the master: Cinderella’s slipper flung into the audience, chaos ensued. Cast in general was going all out for the final show. A better performance and better sound quality than my audio from the first week. Do not ever sell this audio.

Notes from the master: First preview performance of the Broadway 2022 Revival/transfer from the May 2022 Encores! production. An extremely enthusiastic and vocal audience, lots of cheers throughout. Some fun (though minor) changes to certain moments in the show and fantastic to see the “new” replacement cast members.

ColorAndLight’s master
Notes from the master: Second preview. 25 minutes of Act One (through “I Guess This Is Goodbye”) and all of Act 2. The cast list file lists the role as “Stewart”, which is incorrect. It also lists Phillipa Soo as “Phillipa Too”. Which is also wrong.

Notes from the master: The audience was very loud and enthusiastic with both applause and laughter - headphone users beware! Also, people moved down to empty seats right next to me in the middle of the second act and there's some talking and shuffling from that.

ColorAndLight’s master
Notes from the master: Some shuffling and movement. Act 1, there was a kid next to me who was bored and a little chatty with a watch that kept beeping so that can be heard at times. Gavin made Sara break at the top of “Any Moment (Part 2)” which the audience really loved. Pretty responsive audience, especially to some of the added bits Jason found for himself.
