On Saturday night I was forced to leave the @premierinn Enfield, in the middle of the night. staff didn’t believe my dog was a guide dog. Despite being given proof (my ADUK, harness and lead!). Legally I do not have to provide proof. This is a thread. Get comfy.

@Muirin007 Awesome!!! LOL Envious!!! Hmmm. Maybe we can/should start one of those directories of #therapists who are also #Phans?

Never forget that wheelchairs don’t keep people from getting in buildings.
Barriers in those buildings keep wheelchair users from getting in.

@PedroGailhard Can you give some examples? Because, as I said, the lyrics seemed in tact when I saw it in London. At least, nothing leapt out at me they way lyric changes made in the recent North American touring production did! So maybe some changes have been reversed?

[In This Labyrinth: The Phantom of the Opera @ITLPodcast]

@PedroGailhard Um, silver sex toy? And when you say changes to the libretto, do you mean words or lyrics? Because I didn’t notice any that stick out from when I recently saw it in London.

@MusicalHell Uh, I hope you’re being sarcastic there? Also, I’m not sure that’s something appropriate to be joking about being!!

Sorry, wrong as well! The #Phantom is not the villain. There is no villain or hero in #PhantomOfTheOpera. Rather, he is some one who has experienced severe abuse who has, himself, in a very common pattern, become violent in turn. But he is ultimately able to learn and transform.

[Cari @QueenEstherFan]

I can’t believe people posting their woke hot takes about Phantom being problematic still haven’t gotten the clue that the Phantom is the villain of the story. Of COURSE he’s problematic, he’s literally evil?

[In This Labyrinth: The Phantom of the Opera @ITLPodcast]

@PedroGailhard Still, it sounds like most of the changes are cosmetic rather than the full-scale restaging and redesign of, say, the recent North American touring production.

[In This Labyrinth: The Phantom of the Opera @ITLPodcast]

Hey all! At one point I recall seeing an article posted that breaks down the changes from the #BrilliantOriginal #PhantomOfTheOpera to the reduced version now playing in the #WestEnd. And I thought I’d saved it, but now I can’t find it! Can some one repost? Thanks! #Research

Amen!! And incidentally, this isolation and its emotional, psychological and spiritual effects are among the realities that the #BrilliantOriginal #PhantomOfTheOpera addresses unflinchingly.

Amen!!! #EconomicJustice #UBI #DisabilityJustice #Humanity

Folks shouldn’t starve even if they don’t work. Read that again.

Unless I’m misremembering, he also played The Phantom in #Toronto back in 1993 or 1994, right after Colm Wilkinson left.

[The Phantom of the Opera (1986) @Original_POTO]

In 1991, Peter Karrie took over the role of ‘The Phantom’ after understudying the role. Karrie went on to play the role further in London from 1992-1993, on the Canadian Far-East Tour ‘95, Canadian Tour ‘97, Toronto ‘98, & UK Tour, 2000.

Michael Crawford originated the role, earning him a Tony Award in 1988.
