Michael Crawford

“Love never dies. It's the things that surround it that change. Love is a constant.”

“You don't think about the danger. You just think about the release you're going to get.”

“I love the immediacy of theatre. I love the contact with the audience.”

“I was terrified, but I did it. It's that feeling of conquering your fear which is a great feeling.”

“I've always been a physical performer. I don't know any other way to be.”

“You have to be totally committed to the role. You can't be half in and half out.”

“When you are in a musical, you are working 12 hours a day. It's not a 9-to-5 job.”

“The Phantom is not a monster. He's a man.”
