The first 30 minutes are making me think that this show could be remade into a really cool classic Disney movie, with a perfect villain song by Carlotta! 😂
WOW! Thank you!! I saw this show at the San Jose Civic Light Opera during this time. But by the time my family saw it, Eileen McNamara had been injured at the end of the first act. Her leg got caught in the mechanism for the trap door. She had been replaced by Kimberly Breault, who was amazing. I even wrote a paper on this show for Theater class Kim Strauss's voice brought this all back to being 14 years old again, and seeing this with wonder.
I'm so happy you uploaded this relic. Things from my childhood is slowly being demolished. Great America was bought out and plans are to demolished it. San Jose Civic Light Opera was renamed after I moved to Southern California. It filed for bankruptcy when I moved out of California. Although you disabled comments for Chess, I'm commenting on Phantom. I even remember the Artistic director Stuart Slater. And I also remember the TV's of the set being set up like "Wet Seal TV''s" as I called it and Freddie Trumpee saying "You'd better come here to play Chess.' And that image stuck with me for over 20 years "You better come here to play Chess." In this same season, I remember Kim Strauss being a regular actor for the full seasin as well as the actor I named Jamie Tortelini because his last named looked like tortellini. It was also amazing that you uploaded Chess because of the late Ann Crumb whom I did not know that she passed away in 2017. I knew of her from the OLC of Aspects of Love and Metropolis. When you listen to her in the San Jose version of Chess, her voice soubds different than her character Maria from Metropolis. However, after listening to her awhile in otger scenes, there were moments where she did sound like Maria ftom Metropolis and I'm like "Yep, That's Ann Crumb!" As a 12 year old, you have images in your head but generally don't have a working knowledge of actors-- especially Jamie Tortellini. But my brain remembered Ann Crumb but at the time I really did not associate it with Rose Vibert. Maybe my sister had not owned the cart recording by then. Anyway thanks for uploading the season I remember as a kid - Phantom, Chess, Assassins, and then the annoying George M and No No Nanette. These productions were from my childhood. So tgsnks uploader. Too many people eho grew up in the San Francisco Bay area, the San Jose Civuc Light Opera has a place on our childhoods too. Luckily, the regional theatre I have in my current city is still found strong. We have actually two strong theatres ihere -- The Paramount and The 5th Avenue Theatre, who also serve as a big part of theatre history. P.S Were these shot from tge in house cameras? Back in 1992, you'd have to sneak in a huge VHS since smartphones did not exist. Hence, I'm thinking this video might have come from one of the cast or crew members of San Jose Civuc light Opera/ American Musical Theatre of San Jose. You see, I don't even call AMTSJ. I call or San Jose CLO because that it us what it was when when I was a kid. Similarly, Candlestick park will always be The Stick. 3com Park sucks. Even though I have never liked sports really, names are part of our personal identity. Hence, even though companies will merge and change names, to us their original brand identity becomes part of our personal identity just like The Stick, Jose Conseco, 49ers, The Stick, San Jose CLO, Marriott's Great America, De Anza College, Mission collegez the 101 and 280 freeways are attributed to our personal and collective identities. As they relics or symbols of brand identities serve as part of hundreds of peoples lives. In fact, I used to call the 92/280 interchange "The Tunnel Way." That was my identity I ascribed to a city identity. And I wouldn't be surprised if another human in this world has given it a nickname as well. But to me, it's "The Tunnel Way."
I got all the 4 performances of the Phantom musical. Each one is different. One thing I miss is the curtain call at the end of the 1992 Phantom musical. I always love the curtain call.
I love the part of the dialogue between Gerard and Erik when Carlotta was vocalizing. "Oh God, this place is really haunted."

Kim Strauss..one of my favorite Voice Actors. Love his Voice when he sings ❤🥰
Every phantom is unique. Love all of them. Thank you to the person who posted the videos.

I am still enjoying all 4 performances.
Carlotta is so funny!!!
It’s so 90’s I can’t even… of course Richard whites version is best.
It by Gaston Leroux novel 1911
Is there a music score for this?
May I know the singer who play Gerard Carrier in the 1992 Phantom musical?
May I know who plays the Phantom and Christine Daae in this production?
Eileen McNamara is Christine, and Kim Strauss is The Phantom

Can't stand it. Why must the audience block the view when it's curtain call???
