We had the privilege of a backstage meeting with Dave Willetts in July 1988. Our daughter is in London and saw Phantom last night, so we began looking for "the guy who had been an engineer and played Phantom in the summer of 1988." The late Frank Boggs got us backstage for a meeting with Dave, and he told us his story (while in his full Phantom make-up because it was between the matinee and evening performance).

Great talent

I watched this show and loved it 😊👏👏👍👏👏

Phantom of the Opera beautifully sung.. the best I heard

The finest Phantom of them all!

Great Phantom

Worked with Dave on Phantom in London and Manchester. He was one of the most vile, mean, despicable egoistical bullies I have ever met in my life. Cameron Macintosh banned him from ever appearing in any of his productions ever again because of his behaviour. The cast of Les Miserables and Phantom hated him. He commissioned videos of his concerts and didn’t pay for them, leading people into bankruptcy. The bubble burst a long time ago on this awful human being.

Phantom of the Opera that is 🎼🎶🎼🎶🎼👋

That's my dad on the bus!

Shame no subtitles. Would love to watch this.
