- Gotta love a good chandelier crash video!
Note: This is not every production. I also tried to add in those video chapters, but for some reason it wouldn't let me do so. Maybe because of the content. So I put timestamps here and pinned it in the comment section for you guys.

In Las Vegas, they transferred the Chandalier crash to Act 2 like the film?
@@INOBT100 Vegas didn’t have an intermission as their version was only 90 minutes, so they had to change where the crash was in the show
@@phanoftheopera So what happened after the crash? Did the chandelier go straight back up so they could do the final scene?
I love how in Japan Christine and rauol just walk off and stare to the side because the chandelier is going painfully slow
Christine had enough time to do a quick encore.
Idk I thought the Hamburg one went pretty darn slow.
Edit: Or maybe my eye sight is just bad.😂
@@jediconnor9349 It seems to slow down because we're seeing it straight on and when it levels out it doesn't look like it's travelling as far as it really is.
Meanwhile in the 2004 movie the entire opera house *explodes*
@@bigjedimullet fr
Dang Oslo! 12:09 that one fell extremely fast, it even scared me and I wasn’t even there 😂
Same here!You can even hear audience were screaming as it wasn't the theatrical effect but truly accident!!!
The One in Mexico was amazing because of how fast it falls to the stage
It was an actual crash and not a slow glide
Mexico is the best fall and crash. It really seems like it's going full speed. Oslo is also amazing, leaving people in suspense of did it hit people in the first rows haha.
It's impressive but during the Oslo play the chandelier actually did fall and killed four people in the audience. Not cool...
@@draum8103 oh shit
@@draum8103 lol guys they're lying... there has been no such incident
@@gabriellemonette1296 idk if the are lying or not i don't know really cuz the lights went off before it hit some people. They probably got injured due to it having sharp light bulb so I would say they mightve died sadly.
@@Dmonez They are absolutely lying. There has never been any reports any audience members getting hurt let alone dying during a Phantom of the Opera performance. Some of the actors have occasionally gotten hurt during the shows over the years, though, due to trapdoor mishaps.
I like Mexico’s touch of him being up there. It also gets very close to the actors
I just saw this in NY and the phantom actually being up in the "rafters" during some of his scenes made it more.....realistic? Beliavable?
Two of the actors were killed during that production because the chandelier crashed into them...
@@draum8103 ….what
@@draum8103 me when i lie
I was told by someone that in the original London production, at the end of All I Ask of You, The Phantom stood up from behind the angel above the stage, which then carried him up to the chandelier, he reached out and started the swinging motion that brought it down.
I did see that production but was at the back of the dress circle, so my view was obscured and couldn't even see the angel. I didn't know it was there until I went to the front of the circle during the interval to watch the chandelier being raised back up.
Oslo’s is the best imo bc its also accurate to the book as it crashed into the audience. I went in Lexington a while back and they did something similar. Really well done too👌👌
What about Vegas? It did the same thing.
@@vicentehizon6202 I think it's the speed that the Oslo one falls at that makes the difference. It's only slightly quicker but it does look more realistic. Certainly more realistic than the Polish one at 13:20
Ken Hill wrote and produced a version of the story a few years earlier that is quite different in tone. The chandelier doesn't fall in that version but does swing about a lot. Before the second act, the actor playing the manager came on to stage to assure us that the chandelier was now safe, but asked the front row of the circle to be ready to try to catch it if it did fall.
This is why Ken Hill's version never took off
@@josephcook6442 It was eclipsed by the far more expensively staged Lloyd Webber version. The latter had approached Hill to collaborate on expanding his musical play, but later decided to create his own version. The Hill version and the 1925 Lon Chaney film remain the only versions on stage film or TV that remain true to the original novel. The Ken Hill one even manages to reference Roaul's ambition to reach the north pole, but happily in less detail than the novel. Lloyd Webber's version jettisons half the book to change a thriller into a lavish romance. The movie version further distances the Lloyd Webber on from the original text.
I like both versions, but as a fan of the novel, I do prefer the Hill version. And I have never seen a phantom that captured the book character as well as Peter Straker who toured the Hill version and appeared on it's soundtrack CD.
@@chrisparkes2179 I'll have to check out the ken hill version sometime...sounds interesting.
1:11 this looks like it was filmed in 1930 💀
4:33 damn that one was BOOKING it
I like the in Oslo and the restaged US you can hear people gasping/screaming
Someone once told me (or I read somewhere) that the Australian production's chandelier in Sydney's Theatre Royal in the early 1990s was the fastest in the world, at four seconds. But it seems since then Oslo has it beat.
I think in a documentary I heard Richard Stilgoe say something similar that Australia’s was very fast. He said he could tell which country he was in by how fast it came down!
@@phanoftheopera25 years before and after 1988 Michael Crawford phantom of America opening up
OH I REMEMBER THIS! I went to see the show in Mexico when I was very young and didn't know what the play was about. Sudenly after seeing the dude acting sus, I saw sparks and lights failing, look up and the chandelier was falling at full speed towards the actors, I think I even flinched and cowered because I had no idea if it was a real accident.
Not sure who 2:18 ‘s Phantom is but he is having the time of his life 😂
That would be Davis Gaines! It was their final show so he really went all in
@@phanoftheopera Oh! I think I saw him in Whistle Down The Wind when it had its out-of-town tryout in DC. The show wasn’t great, but he was great in it!
12:09 Oslo: HOLY SHIT! 😮😮😮
I think several people did!
Thats what I was thinking too!
@@Nargon46I said that my myself before seeing it before I was looking around attention
Las Vegas, Restaged US Tour, Olso and Mexico take the cake. They are definitely very exciting!
The rising of this chandelier in Las Vegas was a complete overkill (I'm not complaining)
and the way it crashes is scary as heck
OK OSLO. If I were in that audience I'd actually be scared.
Fran Lebovitz: 'My mother absolutely hates going to Phantom of the Opera because she's totally convinced the chandelier is going to fall onto the audience and kill her.'
Nothing compares to the Vegas crash. Considering the weight and speed the chandelier falls.
The next Phantom of the Opera production should replace the chandelier with the Chinese spy balloon, it would terrify the audience even more. Then when the balloon is floating above the screaming audience the Phantom shoots a missile at it and blows it up.
@@draum8103 LMAOOOOO
If you don’t fear for your life/the lives of the audience it’s not fast enough. 😤
😂😂😂
Yeah London felt very safe.
I wonder how many replicas of the Ruthie chandelier were made during all those years.

@@alexanderlee5682 there were two different productions of Phantom in Sydney this year. One was outdoor, one was the indoor Restaged production.
@@alexanderlee5682 no
It's interesting to me that even the primary original productions (Broadway & London & replica tours) have such varying lighting effects on the chandeliers. I thine Oslo 2019 is my favorite drop though.
Michelle Crawford phantom of the Opera area code for years
The one at the end (Before the Sydney version.) reminded me of the uk tour versions, with the phantom appearing and shooting the chandelier, making it spark and fall.
Being as Cammack had his hands in both the restaged tours and the new London production, it most likely came from the tours.
The 25th anniversary has it too

Having seen the new London production crash from a different view, I do think it’s very effective; a lot better than the restaged UK/US Tour (I will never understand why the proscenium had to collapse and why the chandelier is pitiful) xxx
The London production is just lame...
Las Vegas takes the Cake as is more dramatic in the climax and imposing
The one thing about this is that does Erik realise that the woman he loves is literally about to get crushed by a chandilier. If raoul hadn't got her out the way she would be dead.
10:44 I love this one!!!!!
OMG Stockholm's view!!! Wow. Sitting in the first few rows, you better duck.
I saw it in stockholm and recall it as actually scary
I didn't realized The Las Vegas Chandelier Crash happens at Act 2 (It's sad i didn't get to see the Phantom Las Vegas Spectacular because i went to Disneyland during my 4 Week Vacation at California with my Nana)
Yep! They didn’t have an intermission so they changed it to where it happens in the movie.
@@phanoftheopera It's sad i've never got to see the Las Vegas Production when i was in my California/Vegas Summer Vacation of 2009
I like the restaged UK and US versions where part of the scenery falls too it looks very dramatic
Por esse vídeo a gente vê como essa cena do lustre evoluiu!!
12:09 I’m sure at least a few people thought they were going to die here
Ikr
15:26 Fireworks like the 2004 film version
2:50 That's the tour I saw. Phantom on the Proscenium.
I cannot wait & can see yur Screen is Phantom The Las Vegas Spectacular!!!!!!!
Seattle's was best, though I can't find it recorded anywhere 😭 Fell full speed, right over the people in the middle rows
Dang Hamburg, Holland, and Mexico ain't playin around!
9:20
Nice vid. They were all good.
The Las Vegas one is much scarier than the NYC one.
What production used the view of the chandelier falling from backstage?
Hungary!
Hungarian
Honestly, that one was really cool. I’m sure it was cool from the front too-looked like it fell really fast! But I kinda love the shadows and the lighting effects in that one. Seems like an excellent alternative way of showing the drama of the chandelier fall if you have a lackluster chandelier
Oh come on, some of them. Didn’t even crash.
Der Kronleuchter Fall gehört einfach zum Musical dazu
oslo and poland did an amazing job especially oslo
I thought someone was going to die haha
Mexico espectacular!!!!!!!
So I think it's fair game, but any chance of new Mexican productions or Canada/US?
I haven’t heard about any new productions at any of those locations. The last I heard about any US production was last year when Broadway was closing and Cameron Mackintosh commented that a US Tour might happen at some point. Could be a possibility, perhaps before a broadway revival came. A US Tour would likely include Canada/Toronto as a stop. I also wonder if the upcoming international tour will go outside of Asia and go to somewhere like Canada.
Any of the chandelier crashes that have sparks flying really irritates me, because it couldn't have been connected to electricity (the prologue makes this quite clear, besides the historical context). And I will not accept "oh but the Phantom would have made it spark because he's a magicianr". It's just ill-considered design.
While I definitely see your point, I think to some extent having a little isn’t an awful thing. A part of theatre is about suspending belief and reality, and to me Phantom has always been a great example of this larger than life magic that we don’t really see anymore. Like the fire at the end of the graveyard. Even with his fire ball-shooting cane, it’s unlikely that the Phantom made the ground actually set on fire. That is more of a symbolic exaggeration and one of the tricks of the show. Definitely not accurate. While creatives like Maria Bjornson were big on making aspects historical accurate, it is still a fictional piece. I think that allows for there to be some added drama, flare, etc. The historical stuff they put into it allows us to believe were there in 1800s Paris, the extras allow us to go even further into the world of Phantom. :)
None of these are nearly dramatic enough. Even the good ones are pretty lame. I have to feel like some good effects designer could come up with a way of sending that thing crashing into the stage that was repeatable and safe, but looked like an actual disaster.
can you upload the full video of phantom in sydney harbour. Im trying to get ideas because I am trying to create my own phantom production in baltimore outside
There isn’t a full video, but the ones that do exist I can’t upload publicly. One was taken down, seemingly by RUclips, by the person who took the videos. And the other is not for trade by request of the master
aww man. I hate RUclips sometimes like it's a bootleg of one of the best phantom of the opera productions ever. @@phanoftheopera
your forgetting the 1925 one
I only did the crashes in the ALW musical
@@phanoftheopera I get it now
one that could have been a bonus is the sydmonton chandiler
Damn! Hamburg 2001 was out to kill.
lol at thr last one...
Anyway you can share the whole San Francisco show of 1998?
I could privately share the link.
@@phanoftheopera Thank you and if you can find a good video of Phantom of the Opera in London love that too. Those shows were my first in San Francisco and London and I wanted to save them.
@@CH-gr7tn the best quality one I can think of is the one with David and Kelly. That or the one with David/Gina/Simon
@@phanoftheopera Any chance you have the full Sydney Harbour version?
Thank you very much in advance
@@tanesimons6501 I have one audio, but it’s not great quality because it was raining for a lot of the show. There are a few others, but I have yet to get them. In terms of videos, there isn’t a full one but the one that exists shows most of the big scenes.
With how much this gets talked up by other theatre nerds I expected the chandelier to be cut loose and literally drop a hundred feet and shatter into millions of pieces haha this is nothing. This is cartoonishly slow.
Productions have done it faster/differently depending on which ones. There are various safety laws that they have to follow that sometimes have to outweigh a super fast crash.
Wow 멋지다!!!
Who is phantom in US Tour 2007?!
Jason Mills!
Just saw your reply. Thx, Friend.
5:12 😂😂😂
Who is Phantom in LAXclip?!
Los Angeles? Should be Davis Gaines
Just saw how I put LAX 😆
😍😍😍
Why not London 1986??
Cause there’s no video of it
@@phanoftheopera There is, I will try and find it again!
BTW-why did your old account get deleted again in 2021??
Also apart from Phantom. What other theatre shows have you seen?
@@mikekaraoke I assume it was copyright that deleted it. Live I’ve seen Les Mis, Evita, Jersey Boys, La Cage, and King and I. But I listen to many others. If there is actually video from 1986 in London I’d be very interested to see it
That’s not how a chandelier crashes, it should be straight down, no matter if it lands at the main stage or at the audiences.
And it’s not supposed to resemble a soft landing by an alien craft.
Stupid set design and directing, not authentic enough.
Js a show calm down
ugh
Sydney ist der schlechteste krohnleuchter Fall denn ich jemals sah!!
ist draußen aber wahrscheinlich auch schwerer aufzubauen und sicher zu machen
Is it just me or are so many of these phantom actors like… ridiculously over the top and annoying?
Are you talking about THE Phantom or just the actors in general?
Depends on what your definition of “over the top and annoying is.” I’m not saying you’re wrong - there are actors who played the Phantom that I don’t care for either - but annoying is subjective.
No.
I think that’s the point. The Phantom is purposely being over the top because it’s in his character to try to impress people, mainly Christine.
This play and the falling chandelier are very dangerous, in the 2016 play in Chicago, the chandelier accidentally fell onto the audience and killed 17 people. This play should be banned immediately.
The “crash” is staged and either falls to the stage or lowers down depending on the production. It is always tested thoroughly before each performance. If you are referring to an official, licensed production of ALW’s Phantom, I think the chandelier actually crashing and harming people would’ve been fairly reported on. Is there any information about this that is online?
Deixa de ser fresco
this is just entirely false, there has not been a single incident of the chandelier malfunctioning in a production of this musical EVER, and there have been tens of thousands of peformances
