25th Anniversary

This past October marked the 25th anniversary of the Phantom of the Opera! I am so excited! They did a performance in honor of it at the Royal Albert Hall in England around then (I can't find exact dates) and I bought the movie at BJ's 2 weeks ago. I've only seen part of it, but it is wonderful! Here are some pictures:

Different Scenes from the movie:







Sarah Brightman, Andrew Webber, Michael Crawford
Sierra Boggess and Ramin Karimloo 


Hadley Fraser (Raoul) 


The original Phantom and his Angel


I can definitely say that this is one of my favorite Broadway shows. The movie with Gerard Butler and Emmy  Rossum is my second favorite. To say I am a big fan is an understatement - I got the recording of the original cast performing the musical for Christmas this past year and I also have the movie soundtrack. Just to complete my collection, I may go buy the soundtrack to this one as well!

I just took the Scarlet Pimpernel Quiz...They said I am Sir Percy :)

I apparently am brave, heroic, and very clever. My enemies hate me. Everyone else adores me. I'm a snappy dresser, and like every true Englishman/woman, I just hate mushy sentimentality.

What think you? ;)

Well, I would have to agree: you are a snappy dresser and while I love you like a sis, God just flat out ADORES you!
