  • Where did you find the DVD "The U.S. Phantom Years"?

  • I bought it at a members' only event of the MCIFA (Michale Crawford International Fan Association).

  • Where did this come from? This isn't by chance from the PBS special that Michael has been filming in Australia is it?

  • No, this is from back when Michael was playing the Phantom. It's from a DVD called "The U.S. Phantom Years", which has various interviews and appearances by Michael when he was in the U.S. playing the Phantom.

  • I love Michael's interpretation of the senile (and slightly insane) Benjamin Franklin - and when he cracks everyone up with the "Macaroni" joke.

  • Thank you so much for posting this! I saw it when it originally aired and feared I'd never see it again. Perfect Michael Crawford!
