Move over opera, the theater is coming home via HD streaming as Digital Theatre has launched, offering downloads of theatrical productions for a mere £8.99 ($14.72.) There's no mention of any region lock, and since it uses Adobe Air the DT Player promises to work across platforms and browsers, with productions from The Almeida Theatre, Royal Court, Young Vic, Royal Shakespeare Company (RSC) and English Touring Theatre lined up first, all filmed from several angles over multiple performances, rather than a single static camera position. Now that the Concorde is offline, really, how else were you planning on getting the British theatre experience this afternoon?
