20/20 Phantom Strikes Broadway (Sarah Brightman, Michael Crawford) - part 1

[costumebot]

Wow. I had this on VHS too, but it's long gone. It's pretty cool seeing it again. I actually got to see Crawford and Brightman on Broadway and will never forget the experience.

this phantom (who ever it is ) at @ 0. 04@ is really scary,the other phantoms as michael(the original) and gerard are more ...how to say it...well,lovley.

@Lovett19991 Well, Erik isn't supposed to be "lovely"

[Lovett19991]

@jelliclekat24 i know yet i couldn't stand to watch Christine kissing someone who is that ugly!!Michael & Gerard as the phantom were ugly ,but not that ugly.he seems like Frankenstein's monster!!

I see folks are lining up to shell out big bucks for the 25th anniversary gala dvd boxed set. Hasn't ALW make enough money by now on this? He should have released a video of the original stage production years ago. Maybe he needs to recover his losses from Love Never Dies. Considering the utter contempt he's shown towards the "Phans" over the years, I'm frankly appalled at how people kiss his Lordship's &^% when he throws them a bone. Not me.

@audiesgirl Yes! totally agree! The original stage production does exsist on dvd according to alot of diff. phantoms i met in my life. Andrew will make his losses from LND by releasing the original cast on dvd. The 25th was great and all spectacular, but NOTHING will live up to the original :)

Wow! This is the very episode of 20/20 that started my Phantom obsession in 1988 or so. It's great to see it again, thanks for posting it!

[jelliclekat24]

@XXmrsXXshadowsXX I know right?!?!

[jelliclekat24]

Am I the only one who LOVES Sarah's dress?

[Angelacullen123]

[PittsBurghFuzz]

I hate it how everyone stereotypes Chaney as a horror actor.

[btomimatsucunard]

try 2011. I will die if it closes!

[TheTitanic4]

I wonder if all those clips they show are from the fully filmed version that only cast members can see?

[caprice6]

@TheTitanic4 I think so

[alan850627]

@TheTitanic4 I don't know, since this clip is on TV before the braodway show started, so this must be from london or from a dress rehearsal...

Meanwhile, the superfluous sequel, Love Never Dies is going to be re-worked one. more. time.

[littleLotte8]

Play through the year 2000....or 2010 perhaps. It's going to play forever!!!! At least it should

[PittsBurghFuzz]

@littleLotte8 it should be a law. lol

[jelliclekat24]

@littleLotte8 I would probably kill myself if phantom ever stopped playing lol

[operafantomet]

Fantastic London footage, and also good interviews. 

[namphong0612]
