Sydmonton Festival | July 1985 - Pro-Shot

Colm Wilkinson (The Phantom of the Opera), Sarah Brightman (Christine Daaé)

NOTES: (VOB + smalls - 3.99 GB) Pretty bad quality due to age and being ripped from video to digital, but it shows the changes the show made before its opening in 1986. Video is in black and white and has constant green scan lines which blocks a lot of the video most of the time. 

- This is the entire Sydmonton Festival video not just the Phantom portion

Broadway | 1987

Michael Crawford (The Phantom of the Opera), Sarah Brightman (Christine Daaé), Steve Barton (Raoul, Vicomte de Chagny)

NOTES: (VOB + smalls - 2.64 GB) Rehearsal footage, around 40 minutes long. Professionally filmed and sometimes staticky and fuzzy, but rare glimpse of the original cast and director working on the production

This version was also streamed on YouTube during the Covid-19 Pandemic. Version 2 stream is also available. Will gift if requested since this is commonly shared and a commercial release.

Moscow State Kremlin Palace Concert | March 17, 2018 - Matinée - Vampire in the Opera

NOTES: (MP4 - 3.8 GB) Concert version in State Kremlin Palace celebrating Webber's 70th birthday, 2nd of 3 performances. Starring original cast of Moscow production (except Meg and Piangi, who was portrayed by Oganes Georgiyan who died in air crash in 2017 in Egypt). Missing the ending of “Raoul I'Ve Been There”, beginning of AIAoY and last seconds of “The Final Lair”. My camera couldn't handle with so far objects and my wallet couldn't handle with prices of seats closer to the stage. Steadier than my other videos because I just put my hands at seat back in front. I was lucky because 2 person who bought tickets to seats in front didn't come so Act 1 is without any obstruction, but they came to the Act 2 so it was a little bit difficult to avoid them. For some reason Aleksey Bobrov, who portrayed André, appears sitting on a wheelchair, anyway I know that now he can dance as he usually did. 

O Fantasma In Concert | December 13, 2023 - suchaperfectgrace

Saulo Vasconcelos (The Phantom of the Opera), Daruã Góes (Christine Daaé), Rodrigo Garcia (Raoul, Vicomte de Chagny), Simone Luiz (Carlotta Giudicelli), Paulo Santos (Monsieur Firmin), Diego Velloso (Monsieur André), Paula Capovilla (Madame Giry), Cleyton Pulzi (Ubaldo Piangi)

NOTES: (MP4 = 6.5 GB) Highlights only. The Phantom Of The Opera concert with actors who have been involved in the brazillian productions of the show. Highlights recorded vertically from the second row (exept for masquerade, that was shot horizontally), did my best to film around heads but some moments are better than others. They had no Meg so the actress who played Madame Giry sang her parts in Angel Of Music.

Phantom Follies | 1992 - Pro-Shot

Rob Guest (Phantom), Maree Johnson (Christine Daaé), Dale Burridge (Raoul)

NOTES: (VOB + smalls) Phantom Follies! "Australian cast puts on skits and spoofs for charity, runs for over two hours. Some of the skits/parodies: 'Beauty School Dropout,' 'The Three Raoul Amigos,' 'A Charade,' 'I'm Too Sexy,' a rock version of 'Il Muto,' and a rap/dance version of 'Think of Me'."

Phantales | March 31, 1994 - Pro-Shot

Rob Guest, Danielle Everett, John Bowles

NOTES: (VOB + smalls) The Sydney Company of Phantom Of The Opera, in their annual Easter Charity Benefit show. Each of Cameron McIntosh's Australian shows participates at midnight after their regular performances. These shows feature the cast members parodying songs and other shows, with a slight tilt towards their own productions. Pro shot for video, these tapes were made for cast and crew only. Very rare! Very enjoyable shows! ​

-Final Lair with Ian Jon Bourg and Colby Thomas (from the closing Hamburg show, the 2-DVD version)

-15-minute Making Of special for the Hamburg production from 1997, featuring Thomas Schulze (who does a lengthy interview) and Colby Thomas. There are a lot of great little pro-shot clips from the show. Before the Phantom segment there's one about the costumes for another show, Neue Kleider für Pique Dame. There's a logo in the right-hand corner that says Onyx, which I'm guessing is the TV channel. The sound is decent other than some buzzing.

-Pro-shot performance of the Title Song andMotNwith Colm Wilkinson and Lisa Vroman from the 1998 special Hey, Mr. Producer!

-Pro-shot clip of Thomas Schulze and Colby Thomas performing the Title Song in costume. Taped from TV, with a banner identifying it as GoldStar TV spezial. The last minute or so is repeated afterwards by accident, it seems.
