Phantom of the Opera

Last weekend we had the opportunity to see Phantom of the Opera. Since Erin played "Meg" with this same performing company, she was able to get us amazing seats.

It was fun to go with (from left to right) Doug (another dentist that Kent works with) and Marra Lynn Rodriguez, Jory and Kathy, Brent and Erin (Tanner came for the "after party").

Not only did Erin get us great seats, but she still knows some members of the cast so we had a private backstage tour after the show!!

From left to right we have the understudy for Raoul. He was in Liken the Scriptures with Erin so he was our personal tour guide. Next to him is the woman that played Carlotta- she was amazing! Then Erin, me, Kathy and Raoul (phenomenal perfomer) and then Marra Lynn.

This picture isn't really great, but we weren't really supposed to take pictures so we had to sneak it. This is us in front of the famous chandelier!!

Okay, so here we are with THE PHANTOM! He is the one wearing the hat. His perfomance was absolutely impeccable. I got the chills over and over whenever he would sing. When I met him up close I wanted to request a personal serenade. I just couldn't believe the talent and perfection in his voice. Wow!

Can I just brag about my friend Erin for a minute? It was so fun to see a glimpse of the life she had before I met her. To watch the part of "Meg" on stage and picture Erin there was so fun. Erin is such a talented performer. All of the cast members and hair and costumers were thrilled to see Erin and to meet her husband and little baby. Erin was absolutely glowing to live that part of her life for a moment. Thank you for sharing this with us, Erin. It was a wonderful day that I will remember for a long time.Here is a picture of Erin as the role of "Meg".
