my hottest take is that phantom of the opera isn’t a romance or a gothic horror but rather a tragicomedy. cuz some of that shit is funny as fuck

[batcount27]

What I love so much about Phantom is that it’s super sexy without really being about sex. Sex is mentioned sure, and characters allude to it occurring in the opera house, but it’s not really there. There’s no big makeout scene or direct suggestion of a hookup like in other shows or media. It’s really the audience’s own interpretation of what the three leads are doing when not on stage.

I think it’s wildly impressive that this show about people from near 200 years ago, exudes this sense of sensuality, desire and intimacy that people and couples today are still inspired by and try to emulate. I honestly cannot think of another show where the anticipation of a kiss or touch that doesn’t happen makes people this insane.

No, Christine Daaé is not 15-19 years old. No voice that young can sing the works of Gounod or Wagner. Heck, even some 20 somethings damage their voices by singing Wagner too soon. And Faust is a very intense opera for a singer, let alone the role of Marguerite. Much stamina is needed to perform it. She is likely 20-23, given Raoul’s age and the fact that they’re said to be around the same.

In my opinion, I think people put her in the 15-19 age bracket because they don’t want to believe that a young woman can be just as naive as a teenage girl (in the novel it says “she has the heart of a 15-year-old”, not that she’s actually 15). Hate to break it to ya, but some of us adults are also gullible/naive. It makes her a well-rounded, believable character and it’s not her fault that Erik played into the lie. After all, if a voice like his, described as angelic or otherworldly, started speaking to you in your dressing room (I would likely faint cuz wtf, but if I didn’t, I would ask what’s going on) you would likely err on the side of the supernatural too.

Us girls don't want to be ignored, we want to be treated like Erik treated Christine in this version 🤍
