There are only a handful of recordings of Bernstein's Trouble in Tahiti including a couple of film versions. Our favourite is the BBC film version taped in 2001 that features Stephanie Novacek as Dinah and Karl Daymond as Sam. If you love MAD MEN you'll likely LOVE this.
Prelude ("Doa--Daa--Day--Day"), Scene 1 and 2
Scenes 2 and 3
Scene 4, Interlude, and Scene 5
Scene 6 ("What a Movie!...Island Magic")
Scene 7
We hope you enjoy these clips as much as we have!

All Things Tahiti!
Okay, so we've been remiss! But it's time to fix that! With the 2011 Vancouver International Fringe Festival only weeks away, VanCOCO is in high-gear with planning for our production of Leonard Bernstein's Trouble in Tahiti.
Our cast and crews are set, our promo materials are ready, rehearsals are scheduled and we're just tickled to be stepping out onto the Fringe Stage!
Over the next few weeks, we'll be blogging some interesting (well, we hope it's interesting) factoids and information about the upcoming show.
For now, we hope you will enjoy our MUSICAL TRAILER!
Advance ticket sales have begun and you can purchase your ticket on the Vancouver Fringe website - just click here!
