Jackeline Flores Ramin was the Phantom for London’s 25th anniversary. Phantom opened in London before it did on Broadway. This video is phantom being celebrated for 25 years on /broadway/ and Hugh was the phantom in New York during this time.
I love how when Hugh is talking "The one thing that kept me steady was my leading lady, Sierra" (Seirra Walks on camera) " I had three other amazing Phantoms with me on stage" (Ramin walks on Camera)
Maxime Slieker The anniversary show with Ramin and Sierra was the West End anniversary. This one, with Hugh Panaro and Sierra, was the Broadway 25th anniversary.
Ramin YOU CAN'T SAY your career as the phantom is over YOU JUST CAN'T xD damn I sooooo want to see him again playing the Phantom even if for just one night :D he embodies it in such a PERFECT way he's THE BEST PHANTOM for me ♥♥
Heidi Lam hugh was quite good 60th anniversary usa and uk join together and can scott Davis be phantom in london hugh in usa excellent phantoms ! sierra boggess usa emmi christen uk my cast obviously people in it now !☺
16:45 ish...suuuurre, Hugh. ;) He says this in a lot of interviews, but it's so hard to believe, since he plays the seductive, in-control Phantom better than any actor I have ever, ever seen. I think he likes to be humble and say that part doesn't come very easy to him, but anyone with eyes can see he's got it down pat.:) (shows off his acting skills)Sierra's reaction to Hugh showing up behind her at 19:59 is so cute. And then, as a Hugh fan, with Hugh Goggles I can't help but let him steal the show -he's all I see, and through to the end of the video, his antics behind her, not really realizing he's in the shot, CRACK me up! So adorable and funny.
Ramin did the 25th anniversary for the west end, this one is 25th year the show reached Broadway, I think it was 26 and a half year since the original in 1986
0:09 I thought the Les Mis 25th was a year before the Phantom Les Mis was made in 1985 and Phantom was in 1986 It was also pretty cool that Ramin was in both of them
I think this one is in Broadway which would then be correct because Phantom is the first one that reach 25th anniversary. Les Mis didn't play as long on Broadway.
@@bettywyatt but that was in West End. Les Mis played in Broadway from 1987 to 2003 and Phantom from 1988 to 2023. Les Mis never reached its 25th year on Broadway. This is the 25th celebration for the Broadway production, not the West End production. The West End 25th celebration is the Royal Albert Hall performance in 2011, starring Ramin Karimloo and Sierra Boggess, which is the one we all know because it is published on DVD and have snippets of this around youtube. The Broadway 25th celebration is this one held in 2013 in Majestic Theatre, starring Hugh Panaro and Sierra Boggess, there is no recorded performance of this publicly available.
Ooh Dodie Pettit! She was an amazing Christine. And Kevin Gray was also an amazing Phantom... RIP. At least he got to see the 25th Anniversary before he died.
I love the one whit Hadley Fraser Sierra Bogges and Ramin Karimloo.oh and if u go to put locker and type Phantom of.... then click the one whit just a mask
I honestly think she is very pretty, but coming from a farm, every time she opens her mouth to sing, it looks like the scoop bucket on my son's excavator! Sorry, my opinion. She is a lovely girl though.
I'm so very thankful that they filmed the West End 25th because Ramin and Sierra are the best phantom and Christine in my opinion (especially when they're together).
I'm guessing that this is Broadway, and the Ramin and Hadley one was West End? I'm confused it doesn't look like the one at RAH. AND NO RAMIN YOU HAVE TO BE ERIK FOREVERRRRRRRR no I'm kidding but YOU CAN'T JUST BE DONE WITH IT??? *cries*
It’s their choice. A show like is very draining, physically and emotionally. So Royal Albert all was 3 performances, Ramin said he would step back into the role, just not now. When the local high school did it, my friends who played raoul, Christine, and Erik were so tired, they couldn’t come to class, the person who played Christine’s sister told me, she said they were so tired and drained, and they had to study, so the teacher gave them a pass thank goodness! But, it’s tiring doing this 8 times a week (6 for Christine’s, they need to rest their voices so the understudies step in)
I Thoroughly enjoyed the 25th anniversary performance of Phamton and subsequent performance of Love Never Dies. I have seen Phamton 6 times including the original on Broadway. I must concur with the comment below stating that Sierra was the best Christine, and Ramin best Phamton. It gave me a welcome uplift while I was home bound to avoid COVID 19. So much so that I had to call my cousins, Steph and Ben Kline to tell them. (My cousins know Sierra from the New York City music business}
Peter Jöback always gets less applause than the others. Can't help but feel a bit sorry for him. Ramin tho!! He certainly deserves all that cheer, mnmhm!
i was at her opening night! it was so amazing! tho the theatre was smaller than i expected which was good because we were really close to the stage and i got to meet her and talk to her! great night and great show!
Gosh, I said the same words when I`ve heard that))) Ramin is the best, he have to be The Phantom, and he always will be!!!! I hope, he will play this role for many years... ♥
haha i couldnt help but laugh when hugh was in the background during sierras interview. he is just too adorable! SO glad i saw him perform this year! i WILL go see him again when he returns!
Colm was a legit inspiration, so much so, that he followed his career after talking to him and started up a band much like Colm had in his earlier days. You can always have more than one inspiration.
I love Hugh and Ramin. And Sierra of course. They're all so beautiful and funny and talented. And it's so nice for all of these past phantoms and Christines to show up. And the footage of music of the night and wishing you were somehow here again is beautiful, i've never seen it..hmm...
That thought crossed my mind as well. I think more than likely he wasn't expecting an interview at that moment, he wasn't focused at all. But I'm sure the drinks were going around. ;)
They filmed the 25th anniversary with Sierra Boggess and Ramin Karimaloo at Royal Albert Hall. But I don't think they filmed the NYC version with Broadway :(
My english teacher played christine in some production of this and she actually looks dead on like sierra in the show. Her hair is naturally that color and curly tho haha
So there is this... but than there is also the 25th anniversary dvd one which had Ramin as Phantom right? So which one is the real anniversary performance? Is it a West End/Broadway thing?
Does anyone know if they filmed this like the 2011 25th and will put it on dvd? Cuz if not I will kindof die inside since I just went to NY and forgot it was the 25th (shame)
He was the phantom for the West End (the UK), this is the 25 year anniversary for the Broadway production. I think the West End was made 2 years before Broadway? I'd look it up to be sure lol.
+Shanae Waring les mis is not on broadway...surprisingly but it's only in the west end :) les mis is the oldest west end musical but phantom is the oldest broadway musical

Ramin is the best Phantom
Sierra is the best Christine
and also HADLEY is the best Raoul
in my heart....
Yes!
Too true
Someone answer me! Was there two 25th anniversarys?!?! Because there was one of ramin, and for some reason one of Hugh Panaro...

AlwAys!
I love how when Hugh is talking
"The one thing that kept me steady was my leading lady, Sierra" (Seirra Walks on camera)
" I had three other amazing Phantoms with me on stage"
(Ramin walks on Camera)
Hadley is the best Raoul, and Ramin is the Phantom, and Sierra IS Christine.
Originals are still the best.... Crawford and Sara...
- Noticeably louder applause for Ramin - Same.
Is it me or did Ramin get a lot more applause when he sang?
I also thought about that.. probably because he and sierra share an amazing chemistry on stage
Very true
he did
He definitely did. I felt a little bad for the others.
He's like the best phantom there is. Nothin' will ever match the chemistry between Ramin and Sierra
Ramin: "My time as the Phantom is over."
Me: NO! NO RAMIN!!! DON'T SAY THAT!!! D':
RAMIN NEEDS TO BE PHANTOM AGAIN
YES!!!!!!
He was briefly for Prince of Broadway
He took over the phantoms instagram and said in a story that he would do it again. It's saved in the highlights.
In Italy
well, he is back
The best phantom Ramin Karimloo, his voice is wonderful :D *-*
Valeria Milagros you are CORRECT Miss!
Forever Ramin and Sierra
Yaaaas! 🙌
Maxime Slieker The anniversary show with Ramin and Sierra was the West End anniversary. This one, with Hugh Panaro and Sierra, was the Broadway 25th anniversary.
ooh thanks! that makes sense
I love how you can tell Sierra is in the best mood ever

He briefly reprised the role for Prince of Broadway, but he's tired of it because he's played so many times.
Heidi Lam hugh was quite good 60th anniversary usa and uk join together and can scott Davis be phantom in london hugh in usa excellent phantoms ! sierra boggess usa emmi christen uk my cast obviously people in it now !☺
Everyone of them played the Phantom so amazingly but Ramin Karimloo was born to be the PHANTOM !
Ramin and Sierra just have the best chemistry.
everybody screaming when Ramin started singing...I STARTED SCREAMING IN MY BEDROOM XD
Ramin Karimloo & Sierra are the best voices I’ve ever heard !
watching hugh in the background during sierra's interview had to be the funniest thing ever
And cue the Phangirls at 14:08

Thanks for explaining 😊
I love Sierra and She has A geogeous name I love her and her name soooo much
I wish Ramin would be the Phantom again. I don't know if anyone can play it better than him...
*Sigh* I'm just glad that I got to watch the Ramin and Sierra era of PTO. They're my favorite match of Phantom and Christine.
0:09
I thought the Les Mis 25th was a year before the Phantom
Les Mis was made in 1985 and Phantom was in 1986

@@ivalicetifalucis true but I think it was just how long the musical has been out, Les Mis- 1985 Phantom- 1986

19:58 had me dying. She's so adorable.
Sierra is just so adorable and bubbly! How can you not love her?
Ramin was in the one at the Royal Albert Hall--there's more than one:)
Oh Ramin I can't explain how much do I love you
I love the one whit Hadley Fraser Sierra Bogges and Ramin Karimloo.oh and if u go to put locker and type Phantom of.... then click the one whit just a mask
Ramin nailed it. Again.
Ramin will always be The Phantom.
I love Sierra Boggess sooooo much

Ramin is the only phantom I love
hugh at 20:59 is the purest thing in life
honestly Ramin talks and looks at Sierra like a proud dad/big brother
How I know Ramin is the best Phantom. His is the only rendition of Music of The Night that gets me teary.
I'm guessing that this is Broadway, and the Ramin and Hadley one was West End?
I'm confused it doesn't look like the one at RAH.
AND NO RAMIN YOU HAVE TO BE ERIK FOREVERRRRRRRR no I'm kidding but YOU CAN'T JUST BE DONE WITH IT??? *cries*
An actor can't play the same role forever, it get tiring and besides there are other actors to go around.
It’s their choice. A show like is very draining, physically and emotionally. So Royal Albert all was 3 performances, Ramin said he would step back into the role, just not now.

rebeca luker always stunning, rest in piece legend❤
20:03 Sierra I love you but for some reason I can't keep my eyes off Hugh😂 I love Hugh😍
I think he got the biggest response of everyone, including Hugh.
Peter Jöback always gets less applause than the others. Can't help but feel a bit sorry for him. Ramin tho!! He certainly deserves all that cheer, mnmhm!
Peter is the weakest of the Phantoms on stage..so ..makes sense
"Oh, theres a Phantom right there!" funny!!@19:56
i was at her opening night! it was so amazing! tho the theatre was smaller than i expected which was good because we were really close to the stage and i got to meet her and talk to her! great night and great show!
no one will ever forget this magical night
Gosh, I said the same words when I`ve heard that)))

I loved watching Hugh in the background during Sierra's bit he was so cute!
Thank you for posting. Love it!
Of course this gets recommended to me 7 years later
I LOVE YOU RAMIN!!!! your phantom was definitely one of, if not THE, sexiest, most seductive and mysterious!
RAMIN COME BACK AND PLAY THE PHANTOM WITH SIERRA!!!!! PLEASE!!!!!!!!
I LOVE RAMIN AND SIERRA
21:29 Definitely a phantom...
Exactly
Hugh and Ramin are my absolute favourites.
Mine as well
Does Ramin tell everyone they inspired him to begin his career? XD He's said that about Colm Wilkinson too.
Colm was a legit inspiration, so much so, that he followed his career after talking to him and started up a band much like Colm had in his earlier days. You can always have more than one inspiration.
I know. I was only joking.
I highly doubt that this show will stop running before it hits 50 years
I love Hugh and Ramin. And Sierra of course. They're all so beautiful and funny and talented. And it's so nice for all of these past phantoms and Christines to show up. And the footage of music of the night and wishing you were somehow here again is beautiful, i've never seen it..hmm...
I love the phantom of the opera
from Japan 🥀
Ramin as phantom again!
i love you, Ramin!
RIP Rebecca Luker
he was the phantom in London. Hugh Panaro was the phantom in New York.
hugh i love him
Hugh is phenomenal, absolutely the best.
haha everyone screamed when it was Ramin's turn to sing @ 14:07
Sierra is the best. Always count on her to make you happy. :-)
That thought crossed my mind as well. I think more than likely he wasn't expecting an interview at that moment, he wasn't focused at all. But I'm sure the drinks were going around. ;)
Ramin *O* Ahah, I love him and Sierra ^^
Hugh during 20:58 I'm dying HAHAHAHA
Okay, just knowing I live an hour or so away from where Ramin went to high school
CanadiansS!
YES PLEEEEEASE!!!!!! DX
KEVIN GRAY
They filmed the 25th anniversary with Sierra Boggess and Ramin Karimaloo at Royal Albert Hall. But I don't think they filmed the NYC version with Broadway :(
My english teacher played christine in some production of this and she actually looks dead on like sierra in the show. Her hair is naturally that color and curly tho haha
They showed a clip of Christine as a bride in the mirror --- but thats not in the show
*BEST PHANTOM!!!!
Is this coming to DVD like the West End 25th? PLEASE SAY YES!
Ramin is Erik
So there is this... but than there is also the 25th anniversary dvd one which had Ramin as Phantom right? So which one is the real anniversary performance? Is it a West End/Broadway thing?
The dvd with Ramin is the West End 25th anniversary (opened 1986) and this is the Broadway 25th anniversary (opened 1988)
NOOOOOOOO I have died a bit inside :..(
Does anyone know if they filmed this like the 2011 25th and will put it on dvd? Cuz if not I will kindof die inside since I just went to NY and forgot it was the 25th (shame)
Can someone explain to me why there are 2 different 25th anniversaries? (the other one with Ramin as Phantom) and why did they make 2?
Maxime Slieker The recording with ramin and sierra (the incredible one) was the london 25th anniversary, and this is the broadway 25th anniversary
I’m confused I thought Ramin played the phantom at 25 year celebration?
He was the phantom for the West End (the UK), this is the 25 year anniversary for the Broadway production. I think the West End was made 2 years before Broadway? I'd look it up to be sure lol.
Hugh panaro at the end ahahaha
RAMIN IS THE BEST!
+Shanae Waring les mis is not on broadway...surprisingly but it's only in the west end :) les mis is the oldest west end musical but phantom is the oldest broadway musical
They had their revival recently with Ramin in the lead as Jean Valjean
Ramin sounds so Canadian
He *is* Canadian - Well, Iranian-Canadian to be more precise.
i havent seen him and im sure he is for what i've heard but for me not disrespect ramin is amazing as phantom..:)
fab
Got to say since 1986 there has been excellent phantoms and only three christines I liked
Michael crawford is 1 2 is hugh 3 is ramin karimloo 4 joj 5 norm lewis
5 phantoms mc 1 ramin 2 hugh p 3 joj 4 norm lewis 5 and sierra and sarah and Rebecca as the christines hadley Fraser as raoul
lmao same! I don't want rierra go
Is this not the Royal Albert Hall spectacular?
I wonder if Hugh Panaro had work done cos he does not look his age.
❤
I personally think hugh was best the way he portrayed it but you have the right to your opinion.
rip
10:53
Hadley? ;n;
