Lord of the Ring musical- National Geographic docmentary

[Maribeth]

Something fun I stumbled across a few years ago- National Geographic did a documentary about the musical version of Lord of the Rings at the West End. It's available in 6 parts on Youtube. The audio's not fantastic but it's an interesting peek at a large-scale musical. If it isn't already obvious, I'm a huge nerd for documentaries.


First part is below- other parts can be found via a quick youtube search:

Thanks, I thought this might be a good opportunity.

I know some people who were involved with the Toronto production.  Apparently it was a very turbulent process.
