I found that to be quite interesting, especially watching the makeup being applied. Very novel seeing pre-show prep that most people don't get to see. Bravo.

I really enjoy these behind the scenes looks. Also, I really like stuff that has to do with the art department, and getting to see these artists at work. Thanks so much, I enjoyed every minute of it!

So cool--thanks so much! Can't wait until the next one. He seems like such a cool guy and he was amazing as the phantom.

Arghh! Grammar pet peeve #1: your vs you're. "Your" is a possessive pronoun. "You're" is the contraction of "you are." <<

Very interesting! My sister saw him a few years ago when he was on and actually got to go backstage and meet him (thanks to a friend of our fathers who knows him somehow) and my father jokes that it is the only time he has seen my sister speechless. lol

Sure.. actors and actresses in shows on broadway and off. Some have won TONYs, others have not.

I've always liked him, if not for the fact that he was a voice in one of my favorite movies. ::sings:: Though you die, La Resistance lives on!

Howard McGillin was one of my childhood heroes growing up. He is, IMO, the best tenor Broadway has ever seen. I actually had the pleasure of meeting him about a year and a half ago. I bumped into him on the street here in Chicago (he was in town on the "Peter Pan" tour) and he was very nice. Thanks for doing the video!

Wow! I REALLY enjoyed that video! I've seen Howard McGillin perform in Phantom about 5 or 6 times---(have tix for July again---hope he's still in it). Thank you, Craig!

Does he talk about the South Park movie in the video? Best performance he ever gave, imho.

Yes, he does, and he talks about how through the miracle of technology, they made him sound like a kid even though he sang it in his own voice.
