Laird Mackintosh as Raoul

Souvenir programme - Special New Collectors Edition, Pantages programme, and insert, ca. 1995-96

As Ruthie II crashes for the final time, Canada’s own Laird Mackintosh will be stepping in to the role of The Phantom for its final performance on Broadway. Dug up these artifacts in celebration.

“It’s over now, the music of the night.”

I don't often gif moments from the rooftop unless it's, like, Meredith Braun looking positively eager rather than frightened at the whispered "Christine" or Olivia Safe being lukewarm when Raoul kisses her.

But Laird Mackintosh's Raoul in Toronto was just too fucking cute

Look at this. It's so adorable I hate it.

I don’t think I have seen this photo of Rebecca before? Not nearly as common as the one in color with her holding the scarf, at least. Very beautiful, from here.

The Mirror & Title Song (Phantom of the Opera Broadway 8/17/22)

Wanna hear what the title song sounds like in the front row with the recorder hanging over the percussion side of the orchestra? The audio is not edited, the sound just blew my phone’s mic off. Nevertheless, I love how dynamic the orchestra sounds now since reopening.

My master, Full audio will be posted on my Youtube channel soon.

UPDATE: full audio has been posted to my channel: https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=ysxKB1bAN6w&t=4755s&ab_channel=ArrysOrtanez

I dunno about anyone else, but I‘ve been calling Garth Drabinsky’s show to close in a blaze of scandal from the second it was announced, so colour me entirely unsurprised. No one on Broadway should have been willing to go within 50 miles of that abusive crook.

#the crap that went on with Toronto Phantom just to begin with #forget his crooked money stuff this guy propped up and enabled his star terrorizing multiple young women in the leading role #and for that alone he shouldn’t have been able to show his face in public again

Behind the Mask - The Making of Toronto's Phantom of the Opera [AI Upscale]

Documentary by the Canadian Broadcasting Corporation, ca. 1989

An in-depth look at the making of the Original Canadian production of The Phantom of the Opera by the CBC. Featuring interviews with the cast, production crew, and creative team behind the production. Detailing the rehearsal process, the restoration of the legendary Pantages, and the work that goes into bringing the award winning mega musical to the Toronto stage. It also includes the promotional music video for the title track, featuring stars Rebecca Caine and Colm Wilkinson and shot on location on stage at the Pantages.

This newly enhanced version was taken from our original VHS to DVD transfer. It was then run through Topaz Video AI v3.1.11 using the "Deinterlace footage and Upscale to HD" preset. Enhancement was using the "Dione: TV 2x FPS" AI model, with "Add Noise" set to 3, and "Grain" amount set to 5 and size set to 2. While this may yield a slightly over-sharpened file, it was felt that this was the best approach for an asset that would then be compressed and uploaded to YouTube (and further compressed).

Presented for archival and educational purposes only.

LAIRD MACKINTOSH, THOUGH

From his days as principal Raoul and u/s Phantom in Toronto (two first photos) to principal André and u/s + principal Phantom on Broadway - and then doing the very last performance of the original Broadway production... That is one for the books.

Phantom legend right there.
