Get to know you game: Fact Five

When I began this game,  I hadn't really planned out what facts I wanted to  share.  Here we are on the last day of the game and though it's been fun,  I am glad it is over.  (I am having a really hard time coming up with facts that don't relate to writing) :)  Anyway,  I am looking forward to the April A to Z challenge coming up.  And due to my busy schedule,  I probably won't be posting all of next week as I prepare for April.  So, here I will share one more fact about myself and then I will see you all in April!  

Fact Five:




I love, love, love, love, love, love Phantom of the Opera!  I take it apart piece by piece and analyze every bit of it.  If you want to get me talking,  just mention Phantom of the Opera.  I can talk for HOURS about it and never get bored.

I LOVE the movie with Gerard Butler *le sigh* And honestly,  I would take the Phantom over Rauol any day!  (And if you would like to know why, ask me and I will tell you.  I am just not going to put it in this post because it is going off of the main topic).

I can tell you so many facts about the Phantom of the Opera that  you will be blown away!
Did you know the Phantom has a name?  It's Erik.
Did you know that Andrew Lloyd Weber wrote a second The Phantom of the Opera?  (If you didn't know this,  there is a good reason.  The story line for it was stupid!)

And I am soooo excited to say that this year I will be seeing The Phantom of the Opera in Las Vegas before the Phantom of the Opera house closes in September 2012.  (Yes, I was very sad when I found out that it is closing down.  that's why I am making sure to see The Phantom of the Opera before it closes down)

AND

I am planning to see Phantom of the Opera on Broadway this year.  (This trip might have to wait but if it doesn't happen this year,  it will for sure happen next year!)

And there you go!  Fact Five!  Have a wonderful weekend!

  3. I love Phantom too. I've seen it twice - once in London, and once in my local theatre. I have the book, but I haven't read it. I really, really should.

    1. Yes, and I am very sad that it is. Just glad that I am going to see it before that happens.

      Thanks for stopping by! Good luck with the challenge.

  7. I am a huge fan of the gerard Butler version of Phantom. My daughter and I went to see the anniversary show live from Albert Hall and all I could think was, "if only gerard was doing this it would be amazing". I totally agree with you on choosing the phantom over Raoul too.

    1. ooooh I know! Gerard Butler is one of my favs! I love that he learned to sing opera, for the movie in three months and sounds THAT GOOD! (And I am so glad someone finally agrees that they would take Phantom over Raoul!)
