We’re happy to introduce a new method of delivering the School Concert for those families that would prefer a digital copy of the performance. Apart from offering DVD copies, Stagefright Concert Productions have partnered with Vimeo in order to provide a streaming option.

This will now allow you to view the school concert via any internet connected iOS or Android device, computer, SmartTV or Apple TV. All you need is a Vimeo account (if you don’t have a Vimeo account then we recommend that you create one….it’s free!)

If you would like to choose this option, then all you need to do is select ‘Vimeo Streaming’ on the order form and include your email address. Once the production is ready for distribution Stagefright Concert Productions will then send you a link to this email and you will be able to access your Streamed copy of the concert.

All ordering will occur via an online ordering form. Payment will go through Paypal and even if you don’t have a Paypal account, you can check out as a ‘Guest’ and use any credit card of your choosing (AMEX, Visa, Mastercard, etc)
