weird this came up but I'm seeing the broadway production on stage on the 21st in pittsburgh! My coworker is seeing in this weekend but she's not allowed to talk about it until after I see it. I'm sooo excited
I haven't seen the movie yet but have seen it 3 times on stage
I dragged my fiance to see the stage production several years ago. He thought it would be the most boring thing in the world. Let me tell you he loved it so much hes continued wanting to see theater productions of all kinds. None however compare to Phantom in his eyes. So when they came out with the movie we were right there opening night to see it.
He loved it so much he bought it right away when it came out on DVD

Guys are funny like that sometimes. He can't wait for it to come through Raleigh again.

i saw it on stage 3 times never saw the movie i can only imagine the play is better!!!
We got the cassette tape of the London performance with Michael Crawford and Sarah Brightman and were disappointed in Crawford's performance compared to Wilkinson. We both (daughter and myself) love Sarah Brightman and just had to go to the Air Canada Centre to see her show when she was on tour here - she is so theatrical and puts on quite the show. Webber actually composed the phantom songs for her (she was married to him of course at the time).Originally Posted by Miss Mew
I love Colm Wilkinson!!!he is such an incredible talent!!, I saw Phantom at the Pantages in Toronto 5 times and loved it. I saw the movie as well and I liked both Christine and Raoul. But I was disappointed with the Phantom (but once you've seen Colm no one else can compare)
I enjoyed the movie, but have to say we much preferred the Toronto stage performance. I didn't care for the phantom in the movie and was not blown away by "christine" either.
We have had a few different Andrew Lloyd Webber cds for quite some.
In November we watched the movie when my brother rented it. I LOVE that movie! It is awesome!
and the young girl who played Christine, I forget her last naem but her first name is Emmy, she was only 16 when she did that part, and she did all the singing for her character. =)
In sleep he sang to me.. in dreams he camee, that voice which calls to me, and speaks my name.. and do I dream againnn.. for now I findd... The Phantom of the Opera is there... inside my mind...
Sing once again with me our strange duet.. my power over you, grows stronger yet.. and though you turn from me to glance behinddd... the Phantom of the Opera is thereee... inside your mind... those who have seen your face, draw back in fear..

Haven't seen the movie yet but the stage show is fantastic. ANYTHING Webber does is magic!
I actually read the book first! Then bought the CD of the original cast, watched the silent movie, then the recent movie. I have yet to see the stage production and would love to. It's been through my area, but I couldn't afford the tickets.
I've got to have it myself, too!!!!!!!!! Been checking the Amazon.com site! Then I need my own TV and DVD player so I can play it all the time!Originally Posted by sunnicat

You're as bad as me! Only I keep humming the Phantom's part when he appears at the Masque Ball. "Why so silent , good Messieurs..."
I haven't seen the movie, but I saw it on stage in Toronto 3 times when Paul Stanley was playing the lead, and I wish they would have given the movie roll to him.
Ok I think you didn't see Whistle Down the Wind. Not so magical.Originally Posted by ugaimes

I'm taking the DVD back to the library today. Played it 5 days in a row. I think I am addicted to it. Not to mention I've started staring at Gerard Butler's crotch.
Good thing I have my computer back!
Now I'm back to my TCS addiction!

It is coming to The Fox Theater in St. Louis this July. I'm going, I'm going!!!! Just a little hyper.
omg thats my favorite play. i saw in it tronto 10ish years ago with my class. it was awesome. the movie was good, they changed some things and cut a few songs. but its good
Sunnicat - I would love to be able to see the Phantom at the Fox! It is an awesome theater with its own theater organ. www.fabulousfox.com I took the backstage tour with my friend (she lived about 3 blocks from it then). I'm only 3 hours away...
The Fox actually had an incident where its grand chandelier fell some years ago. No damage to it, but it cracked the balcony rail!
