The Phantom of The Opera

 

The Broadway musical “The Phantom of The Opera”《歌剧魅影》，is one of the masterpieces of Andrew Lloyd Webber, and has become a timeless masterpiece of musical theater with its wonderful music, and romantic plot. 

It was adapted from the Gothic romance novel by French author Gaston Leroux, just like Chinese movie "Singing in the Middle of the Night".《夜半歌声》

"Phantom of the Opera", was tailored for Sarah Brightman specifically by Weber . They were lovers at the time. Sarah was a little-known actress,and she went on to star in The Phantom of the Opera，and made it the biggest-selling cast album ever.

In celebration of the 25th Anniversary of Andrew Lloyd Webber's The Phantom of the Opera, Ramin Karimloo (Phantom) and Sierra Borgess (Christine) performed this spectacular rendition. This is my favority version. Please see below for their brilliant performance.

However,  after the musical ran on Broadway for more than 35 years, it was officially closed on Broadway on April 16, 2023.

 

 

 

 

 

 

 

 

 

看到楼下TJ的《歌剧魅影》有感而发。疫情期间在韦伯的义演The Shows Must Go On!中看了全剧，非常难忘。

I may not be a big opera fan but I really like this one,

although, frankly, I still like the classic novel better.

I feel the same as you. The storyline is very engaging.

秋兰has read tons of books. knowledgeable and talented

Nothing is further from the truth, I must say.

In my humble opinion, the opera is a masterpiece thanks to

the prima donna. Of course every actor (gender neutral)

earned the right to take a bow. Collectively,

they brought the house down, so to speak.

prima donna？Sarah Brightman?

I really like Sierra Borgess.

She looks like an angel. pure beauty!

“bring the house down”, learn a new idiom.thanks.

我也是疫情期间在The Shows Must Go On 看的。

特殊时期的美好回忆。还有《猫》，之前去现场没看懂，在这个韦伯的线上义演里提前做功课，才明白唱得啥。LOL

很美，就是嘴大的吓人

有个电影，那个演员也漂亮

楼下TJ谈论的就是那部电影。

哈哈，想到好莱坞一姐大嘴Julia Roberts

临场看剧，那歌声真是可以冲破天花板，退场后，羽音绕耳，挥之不去的。

大嘴Julia Roberts，很喜欢看她的影片。

Marvelous! But, how do you know Angel looks like?

Crystal clarity like Sarah Brightman has not been found sinc

盈盈早！这篇介绍写得真好，这个版本会存下来在我的FAVORITE LIST上，谢谢盈盈带来这么美的艺术享受。

和古树拉拉小手。：）

喔，你来纽约时去看过现场！百老汇最受欢迎的剧，也是迄今为止上演最久的剧。

You must be a huge fan of Sarah Brightman ! : ））

Morning Oona! Long time no see. How are you?

Glad to hear you like it! Enjoy it ～～

高音部分确实精彩绝伦，艺术享受。唱得太好了！！！

理科僧想求证一下高音与大嘴的关系：））

谢谢介绍，可惜以后看不了现场了。

没事。百老汇还有很多其他可以看现场的。新剧不断上演。：）

那就坐等理科僧的科研结果。LOL

要是有subtitle就好了。

对，会更清楚一些。：）
