[DVD] PN1995.9.D6 B477 2007
A behind-the-scenes look at four high profile musicals: Wicked, Taboo, Caroline or Change, and Avenue Q. Covers the entire 2003-2004 Broadway season, from casting to the Tony Awards.

Musician, actor, record producer, and icon known for his distinct voice and persona first charted at number five in the UK with the hit song "Space Oddity." In 1972, Bowie reinvented himself to establish presence in the glam rock scene via his flamboyant, decadent, androgynous alter-ego Ziggy Stardust. Packed with personal interviews, live performances, and never-before seen off-stage footage, this documentary film follows Bowie and his career through image, sound, and anecdote. 64 mins

This video contains interview material and archival footage presented all on one video! It begins with the rarest, most amazing UK Bournemouth footage, featuring Bowie putting on his make-up and costumes from the Ziggy period. Also featured is a Russell Harty interview from the UK, Bowie's press conference after leaving RCA and signing to EMI, and some very rare footage of David Jones in '64 when he explains the "Society for the prevention of cruelty to long haired men."
