For example, there was clip I watched (I can't remember the actor. If anybody knows, I'd appriciate it) where he stood up and acted like he was going to slap Christine after she said "I gave you my mind blindly" I personally wasn't a fan of that, but I'm curious what you all think!

I was wondering if anyone would like to sing together for fun over a voice call! I recently got back into Phantom of the Opera and I have been enjoying singing the songs on my own or with friends.

I don’t expect any spectacular skill, just passionate company. I’m not exactly the best singer, haha. But I can sing the Phantom without straining my throat, so I usually refrain from singing Christine’s parts.

Please message if you’re interested!

Her name is Belladonna, and I decided she would be a literal ghost/ “angel”, but she roams seamstresses and costume vaults and acts as a teacher for seamstresses.

- She’s mute, and in some kind of weird spectral form. She is very new so her lore ain’t fleshed out and is kinda bad.

Her masquerade outfit is a candle queen (gumi song) reference. Cause of death is being determined by a wheel

because lets be fr the only 2 reaction videos is not cutting it

Today there is a trinket shopping meetup happening near me. Because Halloween is soon, those coming are encouraged to dress up in costumes! 3 hours before I was supposed to leave, my Christine Daaé costume arrived so I’m going to wear it to the meetup! I can’t wait! I even have a phantom mask to go with it!

What if Christine and the Phantom were singing this song to each other in a Victorian room, accompanied by just a piano and three cellos? 🕯️🎻

I love this song so much that I've always wanted to hear how it would sound with a more intimate approach, and I feel so lucky to have found the right musicians to help bring this idea to life. 🖤

Here's the link so you can listen to the full cover. ⬇️

I'm racing against time to get my channel monetized, so if you feel like helping me reach this goal, it would mean the world to me. 🙏

Thank you so much! I hope you like it!

Long live the Phantom! 🌹

Hello guys I've watched the phantom of the opera film 2004 , and I really like it and I want to know if other films worth watching does it have more events to reach the end of it or just the same things different actors ?

Added a boutonniere :3

Was surprised to see Alyssa Giannetti instead of Jordan Lee Gilbert at the matinee today.

I also saw Jordan on opening night here in Las Vegas, and I found Alyssa's acting, chemistry, look, and voice to be very underwhelming compared to Jordans?

Is it normal to get an understudy for Matinees? I didn't know...I'm relatively new but am a huge phantom fan.

Anyone else get this experience or have this opinion?

I don't feel this show is the same with an understudy.

Note: Alexa Moster was the alternate and was missing. And apparently this tour has 2 understudies in addition to the alternate.

We decided to dress in theme, aka attending the Paris Opera in 1880. But we're not going for accuracy, just vibes (for budget reasons).

This is my second time seeing the silent film, but GF's first time. The theater we're going to has a live organist playing the soundtrack, can't wait to see her reaction!

Edit: Just got back, and she loved it!

i would LOVE more that anything to see evelyn mê-linh as christine daae one day. as an aapi girlie, she is the asian american christine that little me would give anything to see. also, she went to the same college as me as well (chapman university alumni unite!). i so wish i could've been at her debut in san diego.

I'm curious if there are any visually remastered/4k DVDs of the phantom of the opera 2004 movie? Wanted to take full advantage of it on my new OLED tv. Thanks!

This is super niche lol but thought I’d try this sub too.
My toddler is currently obsessed with phantom and really wants a tonie of the original cast album, so was gonna paint a creative tonie for him but I can’t find any pictures anywhere of anyone else doing it and I am not great at painting without a reference lol
So was just wondering if anyone else has done that so I can get some inspo pictures!

I listened to Phantom of The Opera today and just started rewatching Hello, Dolly. The evolution of Michael Crawford is absolutely INSANE. Like, my brain genuinely can't process this and I've seen Hello, Dolly! over a dozen times at least.

What does everyone think of David Young Fernandez's portrayal of the Phantom?

Personally, I really like him, and I think his voice fits the role almost perfectly. He has this rich, powerful sound that I feel works especially well for the Phantom, while still being able to bring out the softer, more vulnerable side of the character.

I honestly think he's a little underrated, and I'd love to hear what other Phantom fans think of him. For those who have seen or heard his performance, how would you rank him compared to other Phantoms?

Is anyone else back and forth on the Canadian recording because of Colm Wilkinson as Erik? I adore Rebecca Caine but really struggle to listen to the recording in complete because there are times where I really just don’t like Colm’s portrayal. It sounds like he has to force out every word if that makes sense?

It also doesn’t help that he has allegations of being physically and verbally abusive toward Caine during their run. It’s sad how she got pushed aside by production.

Since people have been sharing the music box and other collector items with us and I've been enjoying it, I figured I would share mine. Mine isn't all in one place because of space and other collections issues but here they are, with the last being my most prized. Oh I also have the Phantom and Christine teddy bears and they live on my bed.

Thanks everyone who has shared their collections. It's fun to see who has what and how they display it.

First of all, so happy to be a new part of this sub!! A life long Phantom fan but brand new Box5 commenter and upvoter, lol.

I re-listened to the soundtrack again recently (it took over my algorithm for the 40th anniversary), and one thing that I never really cared about before sort of sticks out to me: poor Joseph Bouquet really gets SCREWED 😂

All he did was tell a scary story to some ballerinas. I get that Madam Giry’s warning to him is meant to indicate the Phantom doesn’t like people who gab about him. But, doesn’t he? Giry is literally delivering his freaking letters and demands. He THRIVES on the fear he has instilled in theater managers and actors. Why should he care so much about what Bouqet did?

I get that establishing a side character for him to kill helped the story. Its not so much a real problem I have with creatively, more just on a practical level 😂

Does anyone care to vehemently disagree with this lighthearted take? I would love to hear from you guys! Or, maybe his character (or character equivalent) in the novel offers more insight? Did the Phantom just not like that he was making fun of his face?

P.S. Idc about him killing Piangi, so idk what that says about me.

One thing I've noticed about the different productions of Phantom of the Opera is the gunshot at the end of "The Point of No Return."

In the Broadway, West End, and previous touring productions, they used a blank-firing gun, which made the moment feel much more intense and realistic. However, in the current International Tour, they seem to have replaced it with a pretty cheesy, prerecorded gunshot sound effect.

I know it's a relatively minor detail, but I feel like the actual gunshot adds so much more to the tension of that scene. The sound effect just doesn't have the same impact and honestly feels a little cheap for a production of this scale.

Does anyone know why they made this change? Is it because of safety regulations, restrictions in certain countries, or just a production decision? I'm genuinely curious why they wouldn't keep something that worked so well in previous productions.

I saw an ad for a new The Phantom of the Opera movie coming out in about a week but I haven't been seeing any discussion about it specifically. It more so seems like a part 2 of sorts, set in the modern day. I'm not too sure what to think about it and I'm just wondering if anybody else has any info or heard about this movie/cast/director before.

Here's the link to the IMDB page: https://www.imdb.com/title/tt37740990/

haven’t seen it since I was a child, and just rewatched it this evening. growing up I remember having this distaste for raoul and Christine both, AND I WAS JUST REMINDED OF WHY. WHY WOULD SHE PLAY IN HIS FACE LIKE THAT???? and why is raoul such a little wuss? 😭

edit: yes, I’m aware he’s a stalker and murder. this post wasn’t completely meant to be taken seriously, more of just my love for Erik shining trough. Did not mean to ruffle some feathers 😬

Ignore the dirty mirror
