Why don't they show Snow White at Radio City Music Hall on TV you heard there was a problem many years ago regarding the dwarfs.would you know what happened?

Answer 1

If you look at a website dedicated in honor of the late Richard Browne (Prince Charming in the Live Radio Music Hall version of Snow White) where it talks about the masks and their construction..... It talks about how the masks were reconstructed to hold up better against time and how they would better show off the colorful characters for the play. The site gives reference to the fact that the new construction's unfortunate side effect was an almost vacuum seal that caused many of the dancing "seven dwarves" to hyperventilate, so they tried to correct the problem. (Didn't say whether they fixed it or not.)

I wish they would play it on TV again, too! I came across the above site while searching for a copy to buy my little sister since our old TV-taped copy was long lost when we were younger. My sister is learning disabled and I think she honestly watched it until it died, hehe. She continuously remembers it anytime she sees anything related to "Snow White and the Seven Dwarves."
