- Today's archival clip spotlights Natasha, Pierre & The Great Comet of 1812! The 2015 production at A.R.T. immersed audiences in the romantic world of 19th century Russia and brought to life the heart of literature’s epic tale of love and fate: War and Peace. It was almost impossible to pick what to share with you, so we hope this love letter warms your hearts.
"Letters" features Lucas Steele, Denée Benton, Gelsey Bell, and Scott Stangland. #ExploreTheARTArchives

The obscene amount of money I would pay to have the entire performance filmed like this.
*wink wink*
@@americanrep literally, the obscene amount of money you would gain from people like me if you were to release Great Comet 🥺
@@rebstein I am one of them
@@americanrep please
@@americanrep Same here!
don't be shy!! drop the whole proshot!
I would literally pay full money for a proshot of the whole show
@@monty609 i would kill for that tbh
@@monty609 400 bucks for unlimited access to all-angles
did you know you can actually watch the whole thing??? i saw the proshot last month at the TOFT (theatre on film and tape) archive at the new york library for the performing arts! it’s free and open for anyone to see (as long as you’re a researcher. i got in bc i’m writing a report about war and peace+TGC)!
@@whothehellisprouvaire unfortunately not all of us have the luxury of going to NY or even just the US :( and those that ARE there probably arent researchers and are simply avid tgc fans :(
The way this musical is staged is genius. It started out in small venues just performed among dinner tables, and Rachel Chavkin kept that aesthetic when they brought it to Broadway. That's awesome.
I never thought I’d ever see any proshot footage of Great Comet: I cannot thank you enough for posting this!! 🤩
that part at 2:45 when anatole commands the stage, raising the lights and the ensembles voices. just pure magic
Having seen the show twice this deserves a proshot like Hamilton. The first time I was onstage in banquettes for my 21st and second time, back mezz at one of the Broadway cast "archive" filmings; and seeing this makes me really want a proshot released. This show was so unique and idk if any revival will capture what this original production was able to do. Just release a proshot and I will pay. This closed way too soon.
I would crawl across Russia on broken glass to watch this whole proshot 🤩
There is literally no one like Lucas Steele. My god he's incredible. PLEASE GIVE US MORE OF THESE THE ARCHIVE HAS MORE IKNOW IT
The bootlegs on UA-cam do NOT give an accurate picture of this gorgeous staging! Proshot now!
Girl wake up Great Comet content just dropped
we need to see the recording of this full show 😭 PLEASE
I would sell my soul for the whole show
OH MY GOD Please please please please release the full thing, Ill actually die
we really don't want to kill people
@@americanrep I’ll take it me for the team if we get a proshot.
@@katiebrennan1251 US for the team. I'm with you.
@@americanrep I will SURVIVE for a proshot PLEASE
@@americanrep OH MY GOD Please please please please release the full thing, Ill actually die if you don't
I will literally do crimes to have this come back to theatres.
Great Comet footage? What blessing is this?*delighted clapping*
2423 days without comet on broadway and still no revival😞 or more importantly, a PROSHOT?? don’t be shy, GIVE US THE WHOLE THING☺️☺️
ARCHIVAL FOOTAGE
I NEVER THOUGHT I'D SEE THE DAY
The photography makes the main part of the stage seem a bit smaller but gives a much better sense of just how massive the space being use really is
AND how much of a risk this show was. You can't have balconies when you're acting IN the Q seats
God, I miss this show on a daily basis.
i would sell my soul for the whole show like this oh my god. this is all ive ever wanted oh my GOD. lucas steele is literally what dreams are made out of
I would literally pay any money for them to release the whole thing, I love this show so much
This was truly such a gift. My night has never been better.
adding my voice to the list of people asking for the full show to be released please dear jesus how did i not see this sooner
this has made my entire year
SAME
Let this start the momentum that gets this show its much-deserved revival!
I feel like crying, Great Comet is one of favorite musicals and I can't believe I get to see a proshot. I hope we can watch the full show!
Helene and Anatole are adorable I cant-
ART...I am on my knees begging...if you have more footage of this show please drop it. Or the whole thing! Please! I will pay actual money for this
Excuse me, this was dropped last month and nobody told me? Is this testing the waters for interest for a full release? Because if so, PLEASE consider us interested.
OH MY GOD I LOVE THIS MUSICAL SO MUCH THIS VIDEO HAS JUST MADE MY DAY BETTER. I CANNOT EVEN- AAAAAAAAAAA HOW DO YOU MARRY A MUSICAL
my heart has now officially exploded.
LITERALLY I cannot handle this
hi i’m back i’ve watched this for the 283873 time and oh my god i love the cast please
@@cadilikesbroadway8291 literally a mood
The music isn't even catchy though, how do y'all like this? 😂
I love that they uploaded this…
*after rewatching this a hundred times*
Now I want more!!!
Lucas’ falsetto though
Why don't they release it full 😭😭😭😭
GUYS, IS THAT DAVE MALLOY IN THE AUDIENCE AT 3:31???????
HAHAHA I think it is!
Most likely! This is the pre-Broadway tryout production, so he was probably in the audience a lot, taking notes on what things to tweak.
Bro it’s literally him
Made my night. This show needs to be revived it was soooo underrated✨🤌🏽
soooooooooooooooooooooooo. that full recording. aha. its been a year since the wink wink
beautiful. thank you for posting. the sequence where the lights are moving in tandem with his arms.....amazing
Why did the video end?! How dare you.
I must see the rest at once. Please post it to this website with the utmost haste.
OH GOD THIS HAD ME JUMPING FROM HAPPINNESS. THE GREAT COMET MEANS SO MUCH TO ME ITS JUST SO AWESOME TO SEE THIS. THIS DESERVES A WHOLE PROSHOT.
Awesome now do the rest of it
One of my favorite musicals. Oh how I miss it!
SHAKING CRYING THROWING UP PLEASEEEEEE POST MORE!!! I need the proshot in my lifeeeeee
Sometimes I remember that in nineteenth century Russia
they wrote letters, and then I'm back
now release the rest please and thank you
it's been two years, is this ever going to be released? 👀
Holy cow I would pay a great amount of money to see the entire thing, this is amazing
dont be shy release the whole thing
aaaaaaaa
i would pay an arm and a leg /j for the full show
but seriously
it would be AMAZING
PLEASE release more!! OMG this brings back so many beautiful memories!!
begging y'all to release the full thing 🙏🏻🙏🏻
As a person NOT LIVING IN THE US I still don't get what the issue is with releasing proshots on some dedicated platform. Im not even against paying per VIDEO (let alone a subscription). Really, do you expect me to fly 10K kilometers via like 3 separate flights and a train to and fro for 3 hours of a show? That's not reasonable. Yet whoever decides keeps ignoring this huge market, the WHOLE WORLD of a market of potential buyers TT-TT
Years go by and the blessed Cats are still forever uneclipsed in how to provide to those who can't attend a musical show live...
anyhow, where's my ship, I guess I'll have to use it, yarrr
OG MY GID JYST DROP THW WHOLE TGING ALREADYYGYH
THIS IS INCREEEEEDIBLE IM SO GLAD I GET TO WITNESS THIS
Woah! Full pro shot!? Would love to have the full show!
THIS MADE MY DAY. thank you for posting!!! this production is incredible!!! now i need MORE PRETTY PLEASE :)
Thank you so much for this
OMG thank you so much for posting this 💙💙
3:32 Anyone else see Dave Malloy sitting there with his fist clenched up to his mouth?
yes, yes, I see him!
i’m crying right now
THIS IS GREAT OMG. WHERE IS THE FULL PROSHOT
Thank you for posting this!!!!
Okay now release the full thing
IM LOSING MY MIND????????? 💓💓💕💗💗💗💕💕
i need the proshot so bad
Release the Stangland Cut
I would empty my savings account for the proshot
DONT BE SHY, DROP THE WHOLE PROSHOT
is there any way i can watch the full musical online??
please moooreeeeee
i would literally go to hell and back if i it meant i could witness the full pro-shot of this musical.
GELSEY IS SO GOOD I NEED TO SEE HER PERFORMING LIVE AS MARY WTF
Listen I will give you all of my money and keys to my house if it meant getting a full pro shot of this show.
that "wink wink" has kept me hopeful for months. why would you write that and then not post or sell the proshot??? do you enjoy to see theatre kids suffer 😔😔
REAL I THINK OF THAT COM(M)E(N)T DAILY WHY WOULD THEY LEAD US ON LIKE THIS😖
oh id pay FORTUNES for the entire thing
A full proshot does exist in The New York Public Library's theatre archive!!
QUICK PSA FOR THE GREAT COMET FANDOM CONCERNING THE PROSHOT!!
did you know you can actually watch the entire thing (proshot)??? i saw the proshot in april at the TOFT (theatre on film and tape) archive at the new york public library for the performing arts in new york city! it’s free and open for anyone to see (as long as you’re a researcher. i got in because i wrote a report about war and peace & great comet)! you just have to prove that you’re a researcher and they’ll schedule a time for you to see it! have fun, great comet fans! our fandom lives on!!
Hi! May I know which cast was in the proshot you saw? If it's the original broadway cast I'm gonna lose itttttt 🥶😵
@@evermore09 it was the obc!!! the only difference in the cast was that the role of pierre was played by dave malloy instead of josh groban. i loved dave as pierre the same if not more than josh!
@@whothehellisprouvaireOMG!!!!!!! What the heck are they even waiting for before they release that gem arghh
AGHHH IM DYING TO GO BACK TO NEW YORK I USED TO LIVE JUST AN HOUR AWAY AND NOW-
I live across the country. But I'm archiving this into my mind for one day. 🤞
Also, how did you even know you could do this??
@@themandarin9493 i saw someone mention something about the proshot at a library in ny, so i literally went through all the library content i could find… eventually found out!
why does it start after the best part of this song
i would pay for the fullt thing please
How you gonna do a "wink wink" and give us absolutely NOTHING!!!!
One thing that still confuses me a bit is that the Audience just started clapping in the middle of the song, can anyone explain?
Looks like a random audience member was delivering the letter so they were clapping them
Two words: PROSHOT PLEASE!!!
RELEASE THE FULL PROSHOOT DON'T BE SHY
ah!!!!!!!!!!
give us the proshot pleek
RUN ME OVER WITH A TROIKA I NEED THE WHOLE PROSHOOT
soooooo there's a proshot 🤔
RELEASE THE FULL PROSHOT YOU COWARDS
excuse me
@@americanrep I said what I said
DROP THE WHOLE THING YOU COWARDS!!!
What do you want from us? What we need to pay you to give us the whole proshot? We need answers;-;
NICK CHOKE ME
Don't be give me the whole musical. Unless it comes back I need my dues
