Production
The Big Cheese Birthday Show
A conceptual dialogue recording would be made on October 7, 1976 called "The Big Cheese Birthday Show". The tape features "The Big Cheese" (whom later on became Chuck E. Cheese), and Crusty the Cat performing dialogue. The banter and jokes from this session would later make it into the final showtape.
D2 Tape Recording
At some point after the original showtape was produced, the original audio of the recording sessions, alongside edited and final audio, would be copied to D2 tape, which is the only currently known surviving record that the showtape existed.
Segments
The showtape's segments and order isn't entirely clear, though a copyright record[1] confirms a few of the tracks were certainly on the tape:
- Chuck E. Cheese's Theme
- How Will I Know?
- Roots in the Country
- Endlessly Awake, Part 1
Other segments from the Pizza Time Theatre Showtape D2 Tape Recording may have appeared on the showtape.
