Phantom!

[lyore]

Wohoo! Got tickets to see Phantom of the Opera in Melbourne in December! It's later in the year than we were planning to go (Yes, this is Australia. Yes, these things do sell out 4 months in advance. Yes, we did have to get a special deal just to get tickets), and all my RL friends who said they were going to come piked, but me and bob_ette and The Other Sister are all going, and it Shall Be Good. Anthony Warlow is the Phantom, we have good seats (front row of the dress circle), and a package deal with an 'Exclusive Phantom of the Opera merchandise pack including souvenir items, program, and chocolate Phantom mask in a souvenir Phantom carry bag."

'Cause, yeah. Everyone needs a Phantom of the Opera mask made out of chocolate.

And no, we did not get this particular package just to get the chocolate mask.

I swear.

Oh, and if I'm quiet on the posting/commenting front for the next few days, it's because I'm currently getting shooting pains through my fingers when I'm typing. Since I spend most of my time at work typing, this is a problem, and I'm trying to cut back a little for a few days. Plus, I'm going home for the long weekend, and as I have complained many times, the internet access back home is ... limited. So chances are I'm reading, just not talking much for the rest of the week.

I saw Phantom recently actually, here in London. It was rather good, but it felt a like...I don't know. Like the actors were just going through the motions.

But Anthony Warlow as Phantom? *sigh* I'm so jealous!

I saw it in London, as well. ... What? We had someone there who hadn't seen it, and I had to fix that, didn't I?

I think the thing about seeing this stuff in Australia is that it is a Big Deal - we don't have the continuously running productions, so it always seems more special when you get to see something.

I'm really looking forward to seeing AW live - last time I saw this in Australia, it was Rob Guest.

Well hopefully this time you'll have WAY more leg room.. and not be sitting right at the back where the people look like tiny little ants...

We are in the front row of the dress circle, and NOT right on the sides, so we should have a good view this time. And hopefully a bit more leg room - I'd like to be able to concentrate on the show and not the cramp in my legs :)
