I am pretty sure you would have noticed all the posters and publicity on the return of The Phantom Of The Opera to our shores after a long 6 years since the last time it played here. I had received so many messages from friends and readers who exclaimed how they missed the musical and were looking forward to catching it again with their loved ones. The musical sure left very lasting impressions to those who have watched it and all left rave reviews!
I would always try to include the whole family when opportunities of attending any musical comes along, especially for such internationally acclaimed musical that even yours truly (mountain tortoise) had yet to watch too! After all, the reason for my blogging is to expose all the kiddos to as much as this old man can afford to.
Truth be told, the musical would be perfect for a date night out with loved ones but not exactly that suitable for younger audience. I googled before the musical to find out if it would be suitable for them and some said that certain scenes may be a little frightening for young children. For my case though, it was not just not exciting enough for the kiddos with the exception of little Louie!

I for one was wowed by the majestic set and the attention to detail for the different scenes. I get the "chills" too, hearing the duets by the Phantom (Jonathan Roxmouth) and Christine (Meghan Picerno) and not forgetting Raoul (Matt Leisy) as well. This musical should be watched at least once in a lifetime and now is the best time since it is here in Singapore. Although as an uninitiated first time audience, I would probably do better if I read up more prior to watching it.

Louie was simply fascinated by the entire production and never once did his eyes stray from the stage! Although I cannot say the same for the rest of his siblings, who enjoyed the more light-hearted and relatable musical such as The Lion King and Beauty and The Beast more I guess. Thank you so much Base Entertainment Asia for giving us the opportunity to experience this great musical for ourselves and on its gala night no less!
