THIS IS AN OPERA!!! OOOPPEERRAAAAA!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!! NOT A MUSICAL!!!! Jesus!! Its worse than that Piarates of Penzance Musical! Can I Also take this opertunity to say that thats not a musical either. OPERETTA !!!!!!! Some people are just so ignorant!
@blastpower2 Oh. I'm sorry. But it really annoys me. I do love musicals, but when I saw that musical version of Pirates I nearly got sick. Again I apologise, I meant no offense.
What a shame that controversy keeps this from being revived or shown more often. It's history and the music by Gershwin is extraordinary. Get over it!
By the way... I noticed this is a professional filming... is there any chance there's a DVD of this production somewhere for sale? I doubt I'll ever see it in my country and, if I do, it won't be in English... no need to say... it won't be the same...
i want Trevor Nunn's New Prod. CD!

Gershwin was very clear that he wanted opera singers to sing Porgy and Bess - this guy wouldn't even register over an average orchestra.

One of my favourite tunes. I find myself humming it everytime I'm enduring the rhetoric of a creationist.
What is, and, what we are told is, are often two different things.

Wow, way to take a good song and make it needlessly controversial... Also, keep in mind that Sportin' Life isn't exactly the hero of Porgy and Bess
