Best camcorder and mic for filming theatrebest camcorder with zoom or external mic

Hi

Looking for a camcorder (seen Sony CX250 on Amazon) to video school plays.

I usually film from the back to get a good wide view and zoom in when necessary.

Struggle with sound though.

Is there a camcorder with built in mic zoom, do I buy an external mic or perhaps even a wireless mic.

I have seen Sony ECM-HW2 wireless mic which could be placed at the front of the stage but not sure if it will pick up voices several feet away as the mic is a 'clip on'. Would an external mic that you point to the subject be better. Any advise would be appreciated.

Thank you


David
