The Phantom of the Opera

Yesterday Whitney and I had the incredible opportunity to go see Phantom at the Paramount in Seattle with Kailey & Sheli Franklin. What an experience! Sheli was able to get us tickets months ago through a work associate at the school and we had awesome seats! I was thinking we would be up in the balcony or way in the back, but we were on the main floor, right in the middle and only about 15 rows from the stage. The costumes, jewelry, set designs, actors, actresses, voices and music were fantastic! Like Whitney said, it was over too quickly (a 2 1/2 hour production). I've seen the movie at least 10 times and didn't think the play would be as good, but loving the music I sure wanted to see the play and of course the play was just as good if not better. WOW! I even cried at the end. I was just so caught up in the love story that I could feel all the emotions one feels with the experience of amazing music. What an experience. I can't believe it took me 40 years to do it but so blessed I got to do it with my daughter and great friends.
