Phantom of the Opera! Magically Breathtaking!
Majestic! Magical! Marvelously superb!
The little mouse and her chipmunk friend were utterly speechless and awed. Last weekend, the two little creatures journeyed all the way to Lioncity, to watch Phantom of the Opera. The journey, though quite costly (each spend about 160 Dil on bus ticket, 160 Liondil on performance ticket and 85 Dil on accommodation), it was worth it all!!
The stage was wondrous!! The changing of scenes and moving of props was so quick and professionally done, it is as though the scene has magically changed itself! And… yes… they even have the oh-so-famous chandelier, hanging on top of the audiences! And, yes, the chandelier did “crash” down, just as the story tells. Of course, not on the audience. It went vertically down at first, then slant and “crashed” the stage.
And, oh, the scene where the Phantom kidnap the ever-so-lovely Christine and took her on a boat ride to his underground lair. Majestic!! The stage turned into an underground river, with candles “sprouting” out from stage floor. The perspective created was indeed marvelous. The stage literally does look like an underground river. Beautiful!! The scene was majestically beautiful!!
The singing was wonderful! The orchestra was beautiful! Raoul was very charming. And he and Christine were both beautifully in loved, singing “Say you love me” on the roof top. The masquerade was flamboyantly colourful as can be. And… the Phantom… well, he’s kinda chubby in mousie opinion. But, he was great!! Chubby, but still great :)
Truly an experience of a lifetime. The little mouse thanked God for such opportunity to watch her ever-so-loved Phantom of the Opera live! The little mouse doubt if anyone who will not be mesmerized by it…

Phantom of the Opera
Counting down two more months till watching Phantom of the Opera LIVE on stage! Yes, the little mouse and her chipmunk friend bought tickets to watch her ever so loved musical stage performance, staging down south in Lioncity. Oh, for her love on musicals, especially this! A dream come true indeed! The excitement and the anticipation!
That is why...
Her little friend is constantly reminding her to behave herself. And not, I repeat NOT, to sing along every song. The little mouse is very, very capable of that. Mind you, maybe she'll dance too. Yes, you heard that right. So, let's keep her in prayer, that she will be in her best behaviour, amen :)
