Summary: This week on SDCF Podcast Series we are revisiting a conversation with James Lapine and Lonny Price, moderated by Stage Directors and Choreographers Society Executive Director, Laura Penn. Technology has made the ability to capture and distribute live performances via high-quality video a reality the theatre field is embracing with increasing regularity. New players are entering the field every day, including BroadwayHD, Amazon.com, and Netflix, among others. When it comes to the crafts of stage directing and choreography, what is your relationship with the video director? What is the role of the editor in this new iteration of your work? How can you ensure the integrity of the live experience? What should you be concerned about when work created for the stage, now opens the possibility for audiences to access live performances on the large screen, small screen, and portable devices?
