Troy, the musical

We got a copy of the finished DVD of "Troy, The Musical" today.

Troy is a musical play that has been running down at Wellingtons Circa Theatre for the last month - The Brothers Mogg, (James, Phil and Rowan) True to their "bit-on-the-side" no budget form, worked with actor Aidan Bell to shoot a video of the show for promotional and documentation purposes. Although, naturally theatrical shows such as this should really only be seen live on stage to be truly appreciated, we took a damn good shot at bottling the colorful performances of the great cast for immortality.

Aidan managed to scrape together a total of 6 cameras and in the tradition of Lars Von Trier's "Dancer in the Dark*" ...we shot the show in miniDV from 6 random angles and he took the footage and edited together a two DVD video of the show in its entirety. Totally no budget, but totally watchable!

Thanks to Aidan for the oppertunity and congratulations to all the Troy crew for a great live show! The show finishes today but hopefully we will see the show come up again soon!

*okay, so the musical sequences in that film used a little more than 6 random camera angles... more like closer to 100, but still the same premise! :)
