London | 1989 | VOBs + smalls
Cast: Lea Salonga (Kim), Simon Bowman (Chris), Jonathan Pryce (The Engineer), Claire Moore (Ellen), Keith Burns (Thuy) Notes: Highlights of Act 1, though Act 2 is almost entirely complete. Plus three pro-shot songs broadcast on Terry Wogan: Sun And Moon, Bui Doi, I Still Believe. |

Cast: Jamie Rivera (Kim), Glyn Kerslake/Simon Bowman (Chris), Hilton McRae (The Engineer), Clinton Derricks Carroll (John), Nikki Ankara/Claire Moore (Ellen), Robert Seña (Thuy), Jenine Desiderio (u/s Gigi) Notes: Suffers generation loss, so it’s black and white most of the time. Half way through act 2 you will see some colour. Great filming though. Act 2 must’ve been filmed on a different date as it got Claire and Simon. It’s missing the second half of “Room 317” through the first half of “The Confrontation” |

Stuttgart | November 26, 1995 | MOV

Cast: Caselyn Francisco (alt Kim), Kurt Kovalenko (alt Chris), Raymond Sepe (Engineer), Charles Logan? (u/s John), Megan Johnson (Ellen), Johnson Joven Uy (Thuy), Patricia Opel (u/s Gigi) Notes: Generation loss but plenty of close ups. Caselyn's vocals are absolutely incredible. The files seem to not be working well. The first 25 minutes (VOB 1) plays just fine, but when you go past that point it just stops altogether, basically unplayable... May have something to do with the smalls. I've seen David Johnson being listed as John also. |
