Sag Harbor Cinema’s Pennebaker/Hegedus Retrospective Continues with Original Cast Album: Company

Sag Harbor Cinema continues its yearlong Pennebaker/Hegedus Retrospective with Original Cast Album: Company, a documentary that gives insight into the recording album of the musical that secured Sondheim’s professional credibility, garnered a record-setting 14 Tony nominations and ended up the winner in 6 categories, including best musical, best score and best lyrics.  

 

Unavailable to the public for years, Company, will be screened with an episode of Documentary Now!: “Original Cast Album: Co-Op,” a parody of Pennebaker’s legendary film, in which a musical cast is in the middle of the recording day when they find out their show is getting shut down. 

 

On October 23rd, following the 7PM screening, SHC will host a Q&A with Chris Hegedus, Frazer Pennebaker and author/producer Ted Chapin (who was present at the original recording) moderated by Founding Artistic Director, Giulia D’Agnolo Vallan.

 

“With the reopening of Broadway, a new production of Sondheim’s 1970 musical starting its previews on November 15th and the release of this great, new restoration of the film, the timing could not be more perfect. I am incredibly excited to share Company with our audience,” says D‘Agnolo Vallan.

Pennebaker captured the cast and Sondheim at work in an unobtrusive, yet intimate way, during a grueling 15 hour day. The Guardian’s review of this rerelease details the filmmaker’s unprecedented access to the recording session, “Pennebaker’s film, running just under an hour, is revelatory in getting under the skin of the main players. And the director’s opening revelation will exasperate musical-theatre nerds as we hear that this was the pilot for a whole series on original cast recordings that never got made.“ Elaine Stritch, a longtime resident of Sag Harbor, later recalled Pennebaker’s camera movement as “up and down the wazoo.” Stritch offers a show stopping performance of “The Ladies Who Lunch” at the end of the recording day, giving Company its superb final act.

 

“I’ve always felt slightly resentful of the fact that nobody took me seriously as a composer, only as a lyric writer,” Sondheim tells Pennebaker. Company was Sondheim’s opportunity to show the musical theater world that he could change the form. The recording is a vital tradition on Broadway, potentially increasing audiences through a successful distribution of the album. The stakes for everyone involved are high, as cultural critic Mark Harris put it, “The sense that everybody on camera has something to prove pervades Original Cast Album: ‘Company’ and generates a remarkable level of suspense.”

Tim is a renowned photographer who specializes in all things nautical. More than his technical prowess—the guy is a whiz with a drone—Tim’s passion and love for Long Island’s marine life is the right lens to reveal the murky magic all around us on the East End. @southforksalt

  • Sixty-Something: The Dance of the Eternal Souls

The east end has multiple charms that dazzle those who pause to notice. If you are disposed to spend time at beaches or boating, you understand the variety of powerful sunrises and sunsets. I call these skies the dance of the eternal souls.

I swear at the zenith of sunrises and sunsets, I feel the presence of every soul that ever existed or ever will. The east-end sky is so big and full of naturally evolving clouds, colors, and angles that it exemplifies spiritual power. There has to be a higher hand at play. One cannot create such an endless changing canvass without forces that no mortal can truly harness or even explain.
