What I would love to see at one point is professionally shot versions of "Les Miserables" and "Phantom" on DVD, like "Phantom" in London and New York, the original productions, I mean. I think they came close to doing this with the Royal Albert Hall DVD, from what I've seen anyway, but it's still not the same. I can see why they don't, but they'd be awesome to have. The Les Mis Tenth Anniversary Concert has little snippets from the stage show but it's mostly a concert. The original production of "Phantom" shot like the Australian DVD for "Love never dies" would be sublime. > > Empty as far as audience goes but you can still see how > John Napier's wonderful set and David Hersey's imaginative > lighting worked with the various cats.
