5. I'd be interested in hearing why it takes so long to release a stage film with the original cast

I'm not being skeptical, just curious. It's written and financed, the cast know their lines, there's already a set, the editing should be easy, there's already a score.... I always love the behind-the-scenes special features that come with some DVDs so I'm especially curious about what else is involved here.
