Wow! I love that picture. I really like how you can see the ballet girls in the background.

I love Mikael Samuelson's mask; reminds me a bit of Colm's mask in Toronto. Does anyone have any more pics of him as the Phantom?

Yay for new Meg pictures!

Here's a closer crop of the Tim Martin Gleason/Trista Moldovan pic we've already seen in various places:



And here's a better quality version of Tim's organ shot:

Both pics look great. Finally it seems they've learned their lesson about color saturation and lighting.

These are possibly the most rare pictures I've seen online all year! And they're gorgeous. My favourite is probably picture number 2, showing the front of the Aminta dress. Plus, of course, the "Angel of Music" one! Thank you SOOO much for sharing!

Those two pictures of Tim look great.

Didn't have a chance to comment yesterday, but I love seeing those Swedish pictures! Thank you!

Is there any pics of Kelly Jeanne Grant with Tim??? I'm also looking for pics of her in the Hannibal slave girl dress or any other rare pics of her anyone has.

Hugh Panaro and Sandra Joseph



I've never seen this one before, but for some reason, this turned up today - rather randomly - in an NY Times blog about crossword puzzles.

Cool pic. I'd never seen it before either.

I've never seen that too. I like the blueness of it.

Some pics from a couple of the rarer brochures I got about a year or so ago...
Germany:






South Africa

Lovely pictures, I especially love that Hamburg brochure. So nice pictures, and such cool angles and scenes depicted. And Vera Borisova = one of the funnies Carlottas I've ever seen. She added a lot to the role, not afraid of messing around with the role and the score a bit. He-he, bless her.

Thanks for posting such nice scans!

PICS FROM THE ORIGINAL KOREAN PRODUCTION



Aaaaaand.... strut!


This was the first place the gorgeous Aussie costumes were re-used, before South Africa/World Tour started using them. I love Carlotta's costume here, and the lion head on Piangi's "armour".


Hye-Kyoung Lee as Christine. Beautiful face, and beautiful voice!


I love this photo too, it was the first full-length picture I saw of the Aussie Elissa skirt. But it looks a tad short here?


Angel of Music. Meg looks so young. And it also looks like Christine wears a looooooong wig! He-he.


Hye-Kyoung Lee as Christine, Young-Seok Yoon as the Phantom


Never liked those Aussie candelabras... I much prefer the mythic female figures.


I wish this one was a full-length photo, she has a classy pose.


Priiiiiiima Donnaaaaaa....


Il Muto


I love how their costumes match in style and draping


Classy!


One of my favourite Masquerade pictures, I really with I had a bigger version of this one.


Backstage after Masquerade. Love her horrified facial expression.


Twisted every way...


I found these in the original Korean website many years ago. Alas they were rather small in size (as above), but so pretty! Anyone who's ever seen a brochure from the original Korean production. I've been looking for one for ages!

Are they the retractable ones 'cause those were fun.

Yep......they come out from the wings and rise up in three pieces.

Does anybody have any pics of Michael Crawford & Maria Kesselman together? And also any pics of Claire Moore & Michael together.

And any pics of Jessi Ehrlich besides the one in the playbill......

Thanks!!

I have this picture of Jessi Ehrlich backstage:



I used to have the full picture, which I believe was posted on Kimilee Bryant's website? I can't find it there anymore. Does anybody have the un-cropped version?

That one was posted on her Facebook.

Oh really? I could have sworn I saw it posted somewhere else. In fact, I must have; I'm not friends with her on Facebook. If I need to edit my post and remove it I will, because I certainly don't want to disrupt an actor's privacy.

I think it was actually posted on Phansonline before, possibly with permission?

Heres the full picture. I have some more but couldnt find them.

I believe the third one is actually James Graeme. Doesn't look like MC.

Paloma Garcia-Lee, from her official website.















Is it a sign of mental illness that I gasped and squealed when I found these pictures?

And no, I totally didn't almost tear up over the masquerade shots, I have no idea what you're talking about...

OMG, those pics are fantastic!! And wow, she is a cutie. I noticed Kate Wray wore the same kind of "dotted" jacket (maybe the exact same one), and it's a rather interesting effect.

Gotta say also, that her web site is excellent in terms of info and visuals. I had never heard about her before, but the site contains all the info I need to get an idea of who she is (professionally, that is) - bio, resume, tour schedule, pics etc etc.

Thanks for sharing those, Mandy! I think I squeezed out a squee too...
