I saw the video on Playbill. It looked/sounded like it was the standard TAMS/Concord rental property (close to Broadway but with small changes here and there), until it got to the longer and different dance break for "Rosie." So my guess is that it's *mostly* the originals with some additions? I will assume that the film title song will be in there, because I tend to think people expect it.

One example of rental version (original national tour?) vs. original Broadway is one of McAfee's retorts in "Kids." On Broadway it was "How are we ever going to beat the Russians?" The line used in the rehearsal video matches the rental script, which is "Why don't they lower the draft age to about...11?"
