(PRWEB) June 2, 2006 -- In its continuing effort to offer the widest possible collection of viewing opportunities for the online audience, EVTV1 announced plans to bring some of the best and most classic performances in the history of Broadway to its video portal located at
www.EVTV1.com.
“ Selecting the performances to upload to EVTV1 has been a lot of fun. ”
EVTV1’s Creative Director, Joe Silic said, “Selecting the performances to upload to EVTV1 has been a lot of fun. What we tried to do was choose historic performances like Robert Preston’s first Broadway performance of “Trouble” from Music Man and the great Zero Mostel performing “If I Were A Rich Man” from his role in Fiddler on the Roof.”
This announcement is just one of many content deals EVTV1 has made in the last year. Silic continued, “It is very special being part of what we are doing here. We know that all types of people want to view video online. We have brought opera clips to EVTV1 and now some of the best Broadway performances in the history of theater. I dare anyone to view Andrea McArdle performing “The Sun Will Come Out Tomorrow” and not be moved. There is a certain intimacy created by watching an historic performance from just two-feet away on your computer.”
In addition to viewing the clips on EVTV1, links for DVD purchases of the performances are available for all viewers. Below are just some of the clips from EVTV1’s Broadway selections.
