Very sad about woman in white both shows closing, I would like to see it filmed but with only Michael as Count Fosco and I doubt if he would do it. Shame.
On a tour if it is an every city tour it is draining a different city every night. But Michael just maybe playing some cities at random. Than it would be to bad for him.
I donot understand why Michael would do a US tour. It takes more engry to tour and sing. Than perform 7 days a week I don't know. But I was wishing he would return as Count Fosco in NY. But his tours are good.
When I saw Phantom in NY with Crawford in it. The end he gets into the chair and disappears only the mask it left for meg to find no killing. Maybe in the new movie they kill the phantom I have not seen it yet also there is a sword fight.
The Chandelier was the best part of the show I was sitting underneath it at the Majestic Theatre in NY. It was huge and when Crawford was swinging it from a rope, I got a good look at him in the box above me , he winked at me. We had a great evening.
PLUS there were many a day when I was stressed out I would put on one of Michael's tape and it soothed me and I would listen before I went to bed. He has a great voice. I don't think we heard the last from Michael Crawford!!!!!!!!
Mr.Roxy That makes me angry Michael C is only 63 when he wants to retire he will, that doesnot make him ready for the coffin. Michael just had bad luck with this flu as you get older you have trouble fighting off these things Micheal C is a trooper.
Thanks for answering....It is not only the fat suit... Michael has fought with illness since he was a child but this flu and viral colitis took hold of him. He is 63 and I don't think Michael would want to play Count Fosco if he can't give 100% he is not 54 anymore when I saw him in Phantom and that took a lot of energy out of him. I can only wish him the best to recovery and hopes he does come to New York.
Anyone know the true story behind the Woman in White in London I was told Crawford was fired. I thought he was sick since Jan. with the flu and viral colitis and just was to weak to come back. What is the truth and I guess crawford will not come to NY to star in the show. I really dislike Anthony Andrews, Micheal Ball I can put up with. But the new cast no.
I laugh at this, being that my late father was in the music business he met a lot of actors in NY. My first cast recording was an off broadway production of The Prince and the Pauper with a very young John Davidson before he was known. Than West side story.
Why do some of you hate Crawford??? I have read some unkind words on here...He is a nice man, hard to work with but nice, just bad luck, with his health.
Well I was wrong Michael was 63 yesterday, I do hope he gets rid of the gastric flu, I had it no fun. Looking forward to when the woman in white cd is release in the US and the show comes here. I heard all good things about it. Chow......
