Only a trained operatic coloratura soprano like Miss Manford can sing the role of Christine as it should be sung 👏 She really ought to record this

WOW. I've seen this four times live, watched the 25th anniversary DVD, the 2004 film, and listened to cast recordings REPEATEDLY since I was a little girl (I'm not even mentioning the non-ALW versions). I WISH I could have seen these two live. They really nail it!

saw josh when i went to london in Les Mis! He was absolutely incredible aswell, i can’t chose between the two!

awesome footage!! i love them so much!!

More please!!! Saw this cast twice and it was amazing!!!

I absolutely hate how this production does not have him holding her hand and leading her down the stairs! This makes absolutely no sense from an acting perspective.

Probably because they can’t

This is my favourite set in the entire play 😍 it felt so cozy and fit that late 1800 aesthetics! Omg, Please tell me you have the Angel of Music/Little Lotte scene as well 🥺

Did the Phantom say something different rather than the customary "sing! ×3"? Felt like in-between he said "breathe" and "again". If it was, I think I like the addition since he's her teacher. And the walk they did was lovely - they had time to be in each other's presence and look at each other.

They changed it for the restaged tour. I think they were going for a “he’s actually teaching her how to sing” moment.

He did say exactly that! For the restaged tour he instructs her during the sequence (“breath” “again” as opposed to just encouraging her to sing :)

If they brought Amy to Broadway the show never wouldve shut down.

@mikey p Right, and a better cast would've brought in better crowds. It's like football, you can't just keep doing a series of what's immediately avaliable. You need to source better talent. And I've seen it on Broadway, I live in NYC.

The Broadway closing cast was excepcional. Emilie Kouatchou as Christine was a breath of fresh air. Smells like racism!

Anne O'Brynn sings this one the best. She doesn't sing "calls" weird like some of them do

Then go to watch a video of her, this ain't about her but of Amy and Josh, go spread your hate everywhere else

Josh and Amy: the best Phantom and Christine ever!!! Actually love the pared back, simplified production! It's a nice contrast. Especially love how the stairs materialize as they descend and the flow of her dressing gown. Beautiful!

Hi! Is there a full video of this you wouldn’t mind trading for? Or just the highlights?

do they have doubles in the new production?

By the way, everyone. Hold onto your seats, because this staging will soon be seen in Vienna

Amy and Gina Beck embody Christine perfectly.

Amazing how the cast here is better than Broadway in New York.

That was terrible. Only a few feet and that's it?? Like some high school production

Holy crap its worse than I thought! It looks like a low budget high-school production. Cant believe what ALW allowed Macintosh to do to it, then again he green lit the movie

I hate that the London mask, makeup and tuxedo are used in this instead of the other style. And that the Phantom is back to wearing his fedora in this staging. They might as well have had the Phantom wear the original wig, too

This is about the worst bastardisation of PotO I've ever had the misfortune of seeing. A restaged tour done by Mackintosh to save money, when the actual West End production managed to tour without any issues for years. I can't imagine this is much cheaper, given the massive rotating cylinder they insist on having everywhere. Just not a good production

I haven't seen the Italian version yet, because a live 7 hours by train from Trieste, perhaps I can go to Milan next October. I would really like to see Ramin live and Amelia Milo is a great Christine, from what I heard. But the Italian restaging I think it's even worse.

Amy is an absolutely terrific Christine - I saw her perform it in London (as the alternate) a couple of times. Unfortunately she was out the night I saw it Sydney. This production however is an abomination. Completely lacks the mystique, atmosphere and beauty of the original. The set is clunky and awkward. Cam Mac should be ashamed for ruining the legacy of the original creative team. There have GOT to be better ways of mounting an economical touring production that keeps the aesthetic essence of the show that has captivated the world for nearly 4 decades.
