Will they tell my story?

It's not all broken hearts, shattered dreams and tuberculosis // Musical theater nerd, opera aficionado and book worm. Expect a lot of Phantom of the Opera.

Masquerade NYC! Spoilers under the cut…

Random tired end of night thoughts, there is audio to come eventually!

Jeremy!Firmin handed my husband a note! (He unironically loves the Managers, so he was pumped 🤣) I got to spritz Satomi!Carlotta with throat spray, and the Phantom switched out the bottle in my hands. Christine handed me her Aminta costume for Twisted Every Way and I nodded at her when she took it back. Jeff Kready was fantastic, Anna Zavelson was gorgeous all around. I liked Paul better here than in the traditional show, pleasant surprise! He really struggled against the ropes in the final lair. Betsy!Giry was very engaging. The Buquet murder was really cool, super physical and scary. Honestly the most immersive part was the chaos post-chandelier crash, with all of us rushing out into the next area. One of my favorite transitions was between the unmasking and circus, Erik seeing his younger self and wishing Christine could know everything that made him the way he is. Hooded young!Erik reminded me of The Trap-Door maker graphic novels. (Umm there was no bread, did y’all make that up??) My Erik/Mannequin heart was so happy with automaton E/C 🥰 The mirror scene was really cool, I gasped when he disappeared/reappeared. Also the switch between Raoul/the Phantom after Think of Me. Don Juan catching fire was a cool replacement for the fireballs in the graveyard. I love practical effects. I thought they handled the costume change during Say You’ll Share very well, it flowed and wasn’t disruptive. I could see the tiny ring on Jeff’s finger at the start of PONR, it didn’t even go to his first knuckle. The show/experience was so impressive all around, all the staff and cast did an amazing job getting everyone where they needed to be. This show really is for all the E/C girlies (gender neutral). I’m sure I missed things here and there during the show because there was SO MUCH going on. So grateful I got to experience it. 🎭❤️

The early reports weren’t lying when they said Masquerade NYC/Immersive Phantom was a fever dream.

Hey y’all wanna see the worlds most appropriately unhinged phantom of the opera as it came up on my FYP?

The London cast announcement (finally)!!

Lily Kerhoas joins as principal Christine, Joe Griffiths-Brown becomes the first black principal Raoul in London, David Kristopher-Brown is Piangi, and Maiya Hikasa is Meg. I believe (though correct me if I’m wrong) Maiya is the first principal Asian Meg for the production?

And re-joining the ensemble… none other than high note and photography extraordinaire Melanie Gowie!
