Is the singing prerecorded?
I'm not getting that "live" vibe.
shareI've got the exact same vibe. Voices of singing while dancing/jumping walking etc are exactly the same. I could be wrong.

No. They got microphones above and maybe hidden on the actors. People are trained to do that for live in stage stuff.
shareSounds like it is a mix - the music would seem to be prerecorded so some of the singing could be. You can tell when it is live audio because it has flaws but overall a great production challenge they are nailing. Almost 60 cameras I think they said. That is insane for any director or director of directors to manage.
shareI think Tracy's microphone cut out a few times on the opening number.

I think it did to, but it didn't take them that long to fix, and that was the biggest problem I noticed. Based on how much was going on, I thought the show went well.
