Almost live: Theater goes to movies

Although many people are not going to see "live" movies anymore as discussed in the post below, more people are going out to the movies to see "live" theater productions. Since the Metropolitan Opera began broadcasting performances five years ago, theater is beginning to jump on board.

"We film by giving cameras the best seats in the house and film in really sophisticated ways," says David Sabel, producer of NT Live. "Nothing is edited. Audiences suspend disbelief and feel they are sharing the experience with everyone in the theater."
