Falsettos First National Tour/Broadway - 1993 (Highlights)

Adrian Zmed (Marvin), Carolee Carmello (Trina), Chip Zien (Mendel) , Stephen Bogardus (Whizzer)

ACT 1 ONLY, MP4 403.9 MB

NOTES:

Undated video. Act One only. This may also be the Broadway production as this particular cast combination makes identifying the video problematic. Based on information online, Adrian Zmed, Carolee Carmello, and Chip Zien did not appear together in these roles (Adrian and Chip appeared together on Broadway, but Carolee is only known to have played Cordelia in that production. She played Trina on the First National Tour opposite Adrian, but Chip did not appear on that tour). The best guess is that this is either the Broadway production with Carolee understudying/covering, or it's the First National Tour with Chip as an emergency cover/replacement.

MY NOTES: I would definitely say that this is the National Tour, Carolee definitely did not play Trina on Broadway. I remember an interview where someone mentioned that at one point Jonathan Caplan was brought in for a week as a cover on the tour and then his voice broke at the end of the week, so crazy tour emergency replacement antics seems a more likely fit and possibility than Carolee Trina on Broadway.

Michael Rupert (Marvin), Stephen Bogardus (Whizzer), Chip Zien (Mendel), Barbara Walsh (Trina), Jonathan Caplan (Jason), Heather Mac Rae (Charlotte), Carolee Carmello (Cordelia)
Tracking Master is not sure who plays Cordelia, as it doesn't totally sound like Carolee. I'm fairly certain it's her, I've listened to her sing 'Days Like this' more times than I can count, and I'm near certain it's her, though her laugh is different to Chip's hydrants move line in LA
