usually a matinée and an evening performance--to make sure they get the right shot. With 13 cameras shooting continuously, this means editing from 26 versions of the play, a long process. On the basis of what I've seen, the results are superb. When I visited Digital Theatre's Soho office, I was glumly expecting the usual deadness of the filmed stage performance. What I got was something quite new. Thanks to the editing and the multiple points of view, you feel inside the piece in a way that compensates for the loss of that flesh-and-blood thing.
