Original Cast Album: Company
Directed by D. A. Pennebaker
Produced by Docurama
A documentary capturing the intense, collaborative creation of a landmark Broadway recording, balancing the technical rigor of studio work with the creative camaraderie of theater artists at their peak.
In 1970, right after the triumphant premiere of Stephen Sondheim’s groundbreaking concept musical Company, the renowned composer and lyricist, his director Harold Prince, the show’s stars, and a large pit orchestra all went into a Manhattan recording studio as part of a time-honored Broadway tradition: the making of the original cast album. What ensued was a marathon session in which all involved pushed themselves to the limit.
