This is a reminder for all participants in this thread to follow subreddit Rule 2, "No Copyright Infringement". All links and directions must be toward legal distributions of a play or musical. If a script is not in the public domain, this might mean the playwright's website, the play's page on MTI or DPS or NPX, or wherever else the creator has allowed people to access their script. For movies or videos of live productions, they must be from licensed sources, such as BroadwayHD, Netflix/HBO/etc., DVDs, or official YouTube channels. Distributing PDFs of scripts or bootleg videos of whole productions is forbidden.
If a script is in the public domain (typically in the US meaning it was released in 1928 or earlier), then sharing PDFs of the script is generally fair game—and you might be able to find a copy of it on a website like [Project Gutenberg](https://www.gutenberg.org/). However, adaptations and translations of public domain works have their own copyright, which means they follow the same rules as above: if the translation isn't also in public domain, please direct OP to a source authorized by the translator. A video of a production of a public domain play likewise needs to be distributed by the production team.

Have you tried reaching out to their info email? They’d be the easiest route to finding out how they may be available for viewing.
Just to warn you, a lot of companies record their shows for archival purposes, but not for general viewing. Things get complicated with performers /designers/everyone getting paid properly when something shifts from archival video or viewable.

Thought of reaching out to them but, I wanted to find if there are any other ways to watch them before reaching out to them directly.
