The four surviving performers from the documentary have been having video chat conversations recorded and put online, and I've thought of two things that would have made for great opportunities with this:
1. Talk about productions that have come out since the film was made (since they clearly wouldn't have been able to do so).
2. Have video chat with some of the performers who were NOT included in the documentary, as a way of sort-of including them.

It's recently hit me that the five people in this have rarely all worked together on the same thing, since Dave Goelz and Bill Barretta have rarely done Sesame Street and Fran Brill hasn't done much non-Sesame Street for Jim Henson. I think the only project to feature all five (and I wouldn't be surprised if they weren't all on-set at the same time) is The Adventures of Elmo in Grouchland.
