When an accident occurs during rehearsal, Carlotta, the resident soprano, refuses to sing for opening night.
But she has secretly been taking voice lessons from a tutor she only knows as the Angel of Music. In Webber’s version, the orphaned Christine Daae has been raised in a Parisian opera house where she also works as a dancer. But it is Andrew Lloyd Webber’s stage and film musical which is arguably the most familiar to audiences. Most importantly, what happened to the Phantom?! Welcome to “The Masquerade”īased on the French novel by Gaston Leroux, The Phantom of the Opera has been adapted many times. The music replayed continuously in my mind and I couldn’t let go of all the questions that the stage production left open-ended. For weeks, I was haunted by the story of the Phantom. But as much as I loved the message, it was not Les Miserable which stuck with me. We also watched the equally famous Les Miserable that same trip. My family was in New York and my father took us all to see the show on Broadway. I vividly remember my first exposure to The Phantom of the Opera.
