Phantom in london and Paris

Mon, 19 May 2008 03:40:38 GMT

As a six-year phan, I finally get to go to London to see Phatom and go to Opera Garnier in Paris! I'm super excited, however, I need help.

it's going to be my first time traveling to Europe.

So I have a lot of questions and hope loyal phans like you can help me.

1. How do I purchase a student rush Phantom ticket in London? What kind of seat do you usually get?
2. Where is the stage door to the theatre?
3. Where is the best seat in the theatre? Is it the front orchestra (I think the section is called something else..)

As for Paris, I want to know if it's possible to get a tour to the cellars and take a look at the underground lake underneath the Opera house? I really want to do that ...

How do you get to Box Five? Where is it? Can you go inside?

Any advice is helpful ! Thanks a lot.

Just a little one-shot drabble of Christine's thoughts as she leaves Erik for the last time. Rated K, so completely work-safe. Just angsty fluff, inspired by an amazing production of the musical I saw a couple of years ago.

Question

Mon, 02 Jul 2007 10:51:20 GMT

Did many of you watch Concert for Diana yesterday? I didn't know The Phantom of the Opera was the Princess's favourite musical as well. :) My question is, did they sing other POTO songs than AIAOY and MOTN? I went to sleep after the Swan Lake scene. Btw, I liked Andrea Boccelli as Erik, even if I've heard better interpretations also, and it was marvellous Sarah B. herself sang Christine's part!

I totally can't believe I only got 20% right. I can't work out what are all the wrong answers. I think this quiz is way screwed up!

Ballet Rat
You're a 20% Phantom Fan!

You know a fair bit about Phantom, but you've probably watched the movie or listened to the musical way more times than you've read the book, and get them easily confused. You're a fan, but you're probably surprised or annoyed that you got less than half the answers right.

Why on earth?

Mon, 12 Jun 2006 20:29:54 GMT

Why do so many Phantom Fans quarrel and insult each other? According to my experience, quarrels are far more common in the Phantom fandom than, for example, in the HOND or BATB fandoms. Many other fans have noticed the same. Still, there is not one single truth about Phantom - yes, Gaston Leroux did create the story and characters, but even the novel can be interpreted in more than one way. Most fans adore Susan Kay's book, but I know people who say it's nothing but cheesy nonsense - and when I read it, I came to the conclusion that it's interesting but not a masterpiece or even very credible. Most people also love the film made in 2004, but a friend of mine detests Emmy's voice, and at least three buddies have said the sword fight scene is ridiculous. I, in turn, don't like Gerard Butler's singing style, but the "Devil's Child" scene is unforgettable.

What feeds most disagreements is fanfic. I've had endless debates about if Erik could be sexually aggressive or not, and there are LJ communities meant for ranting about more or less failed Phantom fic. I've seen some fics that are really weak indeed, and I know by experience that if one's most personal thoughts are written into fanfic, the story can't be very good.

The fans also pick a quarrel about whether to write "fan" or "phan", whether they would choose Erik or Raoul if they were Christine, and even if Erik and Christine could have a BDSM relationship or not. That is absolutely irrational, for the story is fiction, and even though it's very interesting to discuss its details, it's no use taking it too seriously or personally.
