      Colm Wilkinson was offered the role and Lloyd webber brought him to sydmonton. But he turned it down. They had worked together in 1972. Jesus christ superstar. In 1979. Wilkinson starred in evita as che. In 1986. Cameron mackintosh signed him up fir jon valjean in 1986. Two years after loyd webber offered Wilkinson the role. Loyd webber asked him to play the role in Canada. And he accepted. Eric the phantom is not a nice character. Wilkinson chose valjean because Wilkinson father was a union guy and he always told his son to stand up for what he believed in.

    I was extremely lucky to see Phantom the second night of opening on Broadway. From the curtain going up, till the final curtain .. this play was mesmerizing. I saw it six times on Broadway ... three with Michael Crawford and Sarah Brightman .. Absolutely The Best

    Both Lloyd Webber and Crawford understood the ESSENCE of the original novel and the Lon Chaney silent version. That's why this story works so perfectly.

    My Dad and I used to enjoy watching his character, Frank Spencer. We watched it religiously. And then I found out he also was the original Phantom, my jaw actually dropped! Totally different characters! But by God, his performance was FLAWLESS!

    Boy, did you lose a fortune by not putting this play on DVD. Everybody can't pick up and make a trip to New Your and pay hundreds of dollars for theater tickets. But if we could see that play for the price of a DVD multiple millions of us would gladly buy them.

      I went in 91, thought I was going to see Michael Crawford at the Ahmanson Theater in CA, USA. I was very disappointed. I saw Robert Guillome (sp?), he was amazing and I enjoyed it a great deal! Wish I had seen Michael Crawford once though.

    I've seen the Phantom more than 30 times with some amazing performers. I see it every year since 1988. I don't think anyone can match Michael Crawford. Besides, he created the role, meaning how the phantom should move etc, so everyone is following his steps. I think the only one who managed to be as good as Michael, very close to the way he acted and the way he sang, was Dave Willets. I'd then vote for Peter Karrie, John Owen Jones, Ramin Karimloo and Colm Wilkinson.

      They had different lyrics when the show was in pre-production. The lyrics in that video were kind of cheezy and over the top, just like the video. It wasn't suitable for the musical as it came to be.
