The Phantom of the Opera, or, Don't make a public proposal unless you've discussed it beforehand

I thoroughly enjoyed last Friday's Phantom broadcast, and also got to stop feeling foolish that I hadn't gone to see the production live, because although I still remember the advert from the Observer I had forgotten that it was only on for three performances, and I never knew that the tickets sold out within hours anyway

I've always had a soft spot for POTO. I liked how you saw the behind the scenes goings on, with 'rumours of an Opera Ghost will bring in the crowds, what can go wrong?'

I heard there was to be a sequel, shame it was never produced. /s

I think it does a wonderful job of creating a sense of the opera house as a community in which/to whom the story can happen, with all the people just trying to get on with their professional jobs in the midst of all this weird stuff going on, and preferably without dying.

Truly, that is a better leg of the trousers of time.
