NOTE I haven't watched everything so I can't give a description. Anything marked with a ❁ is a favorite!
LOS ANGELES - 1989 - VOB
Cast: Michael Crawford (The Phantom of the Opera), Dale Kristien (Christine Daaé), Steve Barton (Raoul)
Notes: Lots of washout and generation loss, but the best video of Michael Crawford around. According to another site, it is Reece Holland as Raoul in the video, though some footage may be from Steve Barton's three week stint in the production. Two versions: Version 1 has brighter colors but more generation loss, Version 2 is smaller in file size but has sharper details and lines.

Notes: mynewfavoriteday’s master. Act Two Only! HD capture of the reimagined touring production. Filmed from the very right mezzanine, there are occasionally heads that block both far edges of the screen and a prominent one that blocks the bottom of the stage, but is shot around as best as possible when affected. Filmed with a mix of wides, mediums, and close-ups, with occasional obstructions and dropouts due to the audience.
