Did anybody else make it to the theater to see the 25th Anniversary Concert at the beginning of the month? Our theater sold out for the actual streaming performance, but my Real Life POTO crew and I caught the second one a few nights later. I was impressed with the production in general, highly amused by ALW's awkward bumbling around afterwards, and a little weepy when Michael Crawford came on. The most notable part for me was that it's the first time I actually had an emotional connection to Christine; Sierra Boggess made me like her. I did, however, keep bursting into gigglefits throughout, for various reasons. Some of the costume choices, for instance. It's been a long time since I've seen the show, so I can't remember for sure if Ramin!Phantom's little puffed sleeves on his MOTN jacket are traditional, but they kind of cracked me up. Also, jeez, the hat for Wandering Child. Absolutely my favorite part of the show, but how could I take him seriously when he was wearing a chicken on his head? Observe: Anybody else sensing a pattern?

I unfortunately missed it. I didn't hear about it until kind of late, and couldn't make the time to get to a theater. I sounds like it was fun... as much because of as despite the chicken hat. I wonder if they'll release it on DVD?

It will be out on DVD, I think in February.
A friend that was with us leans over and says, "When the DVD comes out, I'm going to burn the other movie!" Not exactly a Gerry Phantom fan.

And then you can see the glory of the chicken hat for yourself!
Also, puffed sleeves.

Aww, I didn't even know there was such a concert! Not that I'd have been able to go or anything, heh. But that's awesome that it'll be on DVD! Definitely setting some money aside for that.
And LOL at the chicken hat!

I didn't know about it either, but sounds great! Hope I have a chance to see it soon-ish!
