TCM to screen Gone With the Wind musical documentary
Satellite television channel Turner Classic Movies is to screen a programme documenting the making of forthcoming West End musical Gone With the Wind.
Gone with the Wind - The Making of the Musical will see a TCM camera crew shadowing the cast and crew in their run-up to opening at the New London Theatre.
Directed by Trevor Nunn, the musical stars Darius Danesh as Rhett Butler and Jill Paice as Scarlett O’Hara. The documentary will be screened on April 20, just before the show’s opening night on April 22. A second version of the show, incorporating footage from the opening night, is also being planned for later in the year.
The move follows a similar deal between West End musical The Lord of the Rings and National Geographic last year, which documented behind the scenes of the production, prior to its opening at the Theatre Royal Drury Lane.
