That is very cool. It was great seeing Thayer and Clarice in this, and I think that actress who played Hallie/Carrie Stokes was one of the children in it.

I hadn't heard of this production -- excellent cast, not even counting the DS actors -- Melvyn Douglas, Scott, Dewhurst, et al. It was surprising that Thayer David and Clarice Blackburn were both in the promotional clip! (Had Lara Parker never been cast as Angelique, it would have been interesting to see what Tuesday Weld would have done with the role.)
