This Post Made Me Realize How Much The Byronic Hero Has Me In A Chokehold Bc WOW All My Favorite Figures

Ted Keegan's Phantom is always so happy and innocent at that organ before STYDI, why would Christine do such a thing to him?

(Side note: I love when actors lean into reminding us that Erik is genuinely in love with music. Adds unspoken character depth and helps answer questions like: Why is he so obsessed with Christine? How has music functioned as his primary means of socialization and processing emotions?)

The Rehearsal (1877) by Edgar Degas

Thinking about Jordan Donica's Raoul and the illegal way he said sOAkEd to the sKiN

It’s Monday and I’m still thinking about that Cudia boot.

What I love about theatre is that no matter how many times you’ve seen a show or even a particular actor’s performances, there’s always room for surprise. I always liked John Cudia, but that boot was distinct from all his other performances. He just walked into work that day and said “I feel like being more feral than usual.”

Michael Crawford's "I love you" wail and "[big voice] YOU ALONE [sad wet cat voice] can make my song take flight" are actively disrupting my day.

i’ve always loved how revered art pieces like these are. and enjoying these art pieces, these tangible forms of people’s adoration, with the person you love is such a beautiful experience <3

also wow, 50 followers! i honestly wasn’t expecting anyone to even see these, so thrilled is an understatement :) thank you so much for interacting with my posts, editing has given me a wonderful way to express my creativity and knowing these images make people happy makes my day <333

‘It has to be said that Warlow put on a magnificent performance, providing Brightman with unstinting backing and support – even if he did eclipse her in some parts. […] He lifted many of the duets, such as Amigos Para Siempre (Friends for Life) and All I Ask of You, above some of the original versions.’ (x)

Anthony Warlow singing an utterly swoon-worthy Raoul alongside Sarah Brightman’s Christine during The Music of Andrew Lloyd Webber concert tour in 1996

(And yes, I still can’t believe this exists. His “Christine” asdfghjkl)

It looks like the les mis & fantôme-y goodness page has been taken down on YT? I'm hurt. They had like 20 of my favorite vids *crying emoji*

The Saturday Stream sent me looking at Anthony Warlow and now between this and JRox I'm no use to man or beast.

Can't decide whether to crawl into fetal position or just cry face down in the pillow atp.
