    It Ain't Over Till the Goth Vampire Sings

    Ben Brantley

    December 10, 2002: Where's a mask when you need one? Michael Crawford, who sported a dashing half-mask for his Tony-winning performance in ''The Phantom of the Opera'' in 1988, would have done well to have donned a fuller version for his return to Broadway. Rigged up as a taxidermic variation on his Phantom persona, Mr. Crawford opened last night in a show called ''Dance of the Vampires'' at the Marquis Theater. It is an enterprise to be associated with only under the veil of anonymity.
