The top of fame and fortune [Comprehensive British and American]

"Close your eyes and give in to your darkest dreams—" On the stage of "The Phantom of the Opera", which is extremely gorgeous and capable, the gentle and powerful singing of the Phantom is bewitching and tempting Christine, falling into his Dark Kingdom.

And in Erica's expression, it showed yearning and fascination that could not be restrained. In the dreamlike underground labyrinth, she could not help but burst into tears while listening to the velvety gentle and luxurious singing of the Phantom.

In the auditorium, in the intoxicating singing of "Music of the Night", people saw the wet tears on Erika's face. Under the elegant lighting on the stage, her hot tears seemed to be slightly refracting fine light, which looked romantic and beautiful. moving.

"The emotion she showed—" The drama critic of "USA Today" frowned subconsciously, "It's like Christine is full of fascination and admiration for the Phantom."

The Los Angeles Times writer naturally also noticed this, "Erica Parker will not know that the critics almost unanimously agree that 'Kristen Loves No Phantom', is she going to show an adoring Ke? Christine?"

"I just hope that the MAJESTIC Theater will not adapt this classic musical into a happy ending in order to win attention, which will greatly reduce the dramatic classic level of "The Phantom of the Opera", "The columnist of the "Chicago Tribune" said that it is not recognized, but he Then he looked at the pair of young actors on the stage, "But their performance is so exquisite."

The well-known Broadway drama critic who contributed to the "New York Times" unexpectedly did not object to Erica's sincere emotions, "The real dramatic tension created by her is convincing everyone in the audience that she is The real Christine, so her fascination and admiration is so convincing and makes it all believable."

Compared with discussing the emotions shown by Erica, more drama critics praised Phantom's singing, "This song "Music of the Night" is amazingly perfect. In the gentle temptation, it contains mystery and danger. Fascinating."

"Volo and Parker sing and perform with extraordinary emotion."

"The dramatic, dangerous romantic chemistry between the two is really touching."

On the stage, Christine was being embraced by the phantom from behind. His singing voice was so alluring, and the phantom led her to the side of the stage, showing his doll wearing a wedding dress made according to Christine.

In the dream-like underground palace, Phantom's singing is so shocking, as if it is peerless, "Surrender to the power of the music I composed, this magical movement of the night—"

Christine's emotions were raised to the highest point, and she completely lost consciousness and fainted backwards amidst the gorgeous singing of the "Phantom" holy voice.

The phantom caught her body in an instant, he hugged the young girl into his arms, and looked at the fainting Christine tenderly, showing infinite love.

With the end of the song "Music of the Night", there was another round of applause in the MAJESTIC theater, but then, the original romantic plot quickly took a turn for the worse——

Christine, who was in a coma, woke up to the melodious sound of the juggling monkey's music box. She took off the silver mask from Phantom's face, revealing his terrifying face.

The music became irritable in an instant, and Phantom covered half of her face that had lost its mask in horror, cursing her angrily, "Damn it! You little devil!"

Christine fell to the ground in the phantom's irrational anger, but the phantom still threatened her with terrifying words, "Now you will never be free again!"

But only a moment later, the Phantom begged her regretfully and painfully, "Can you dare to look at me? This disgusting monster burning in hell secretly yearns for heaven."

Christine's eyes gradually changed from fear to sympathy. She watched Phantom quietly, listening to his humble voice that was cautious and full of pain, "Kristen, fear can turn into love."

In this scene, Christine did not have lyrics and dialogue, but Erica could not be ignored on stage——

She was picking up the silver mask that fell to the ground with her, trying to put away the panic in her expression, and gently handed the mask to the phantom.

Christine's actions were full of tenderness. Even though she was terribly cursed and treated roughly by the phantom not long ago, she was of course terrified, but she still chose to forgive him.

After Phantom put on the mask, she seemed to regain her powerful aura in an instant, but Christine just looked at him silently, with pity and understanding, she acted like a real angel, and her radiant The extraordinary appearance added to the charming charm.

But Christine's understanding of the Phantom failed to last - the Phantom committed a terrible and brutal murder in the Opera House.

Christine ran to the theater roof in pain, and Viscount Raul, who was in love with her, followed her.

The handsome and sincere Raul tried his best to comfort Christine, but her mind was full of phantoms, and her fear and pain nearly collapsed her.

But at the next moment, she couldn't help showing yearning and fascination again from her terrified expression, "But his voice filled my soul."

"His eyes are full of the sadness of this world." Christine was shaken uncontrollably. When mentioning Phantom, she seemed to be lost in her mind and fell into endless fascination.

Viscount Raul took the weeping Christine into his arms and sang in a low voice, "Don't talk about the dark again, forget these fears."

"I have come to set you free, let the sunlight take away your tears," Lauer tried to give Christine all the warmth, "I am here, with you, to protect you, to guide you."

In the darkness and fear created by the Phantom, Viscount Raul brought Christine a completely different light. She tried hard not to be shackled by the Phantom's dangerous emotions, so this extremely beautiful love aria "AllIAskofYou" was born .

"Say you love me all the time," Christine responded to Viscount Lauer's admiration like a drowning man grabbing a kickboard, "say you'll always need me by your side, promise me you'll It’s all true, and that’s what I’m asking of you.”

But is this really what she wants to sing to Raul?Or is there someone else in her heart?

"I want to regain my freedom, a world that is no longer dark," Christine raised her voice, her voice was gorgeous and decisive, as if she was trying to break free from something, she looked at the upright and reliable Viscount Raul, "and you will never Be there for me, support me and protect me."

Lauer watched in disbelief as Christine responded to him, the love so bright in his singing, "Say you'll love me forever, let me take you out of loneliness, say you need me with you, no matter you Where are you going, let me go with you."

In the audience, a writer for the Los Angeles Times looked at the two beautiful young men hugging and leaving the rooftop on the stage, "Well, Erica Parker convinced me that she and the Viscount Raul exchanged hearts in this scene. In the scene, the interpretation is so wonderful and moving."

"But at the same time, the complex emotional choices shown seem to be able to convince everyone of her infatuation and admiration for Phantom."

"She presents a more complex Christine for everyone," said the USA TODAY critic, "and her performance may have convinced the commentary in this theater that 'Kristen has no love for the Phantom'." Families, deeply shaken."

Broadway critics discuss Erica's believable interpretation of emotional logic, while other fans in the audience are eagerly anticipating the next big show——

Christine and Viscount Raul's love response was witnessed by the phantom hidden on the roof of the theater. He appeared after the two left. He thought that Christine had betrayed him and cursed angrily.

In the sound of urgent and manic passionate music, on the stage, all the actors of the Paris Opera House are happily taking a curtain call, while in the auditorium, everyone is holding their breath, waiting for the grand scene to come.

That giant golden crystal chandelier, which was about to be the phantom's revenge, fell down on the spot!

And The Phantom never disappoints fans.

"Bang——" the crystal chandelier sprayed terrible flames around, and amidst the terrified screams of all the actors on the stage, the huge ceiling crashed down.

It flew across the auditorium, and smashed on the stage with a shock, right in front of Erica, like a terrible shock.

The audience was surrounded by astonishing shouts, and it was difficult to distinguish whether it was from the actors or from the auditorium.

And the golden crystal chandelier was still shaking, it trembled from the falling stage, and flew across the auditorium again.

Amidst the screams, it finally hovered in the front row of the auditorium, so close to the audience that it could almost be touched by raising the arm.

I don't know how many drama fans couldn't help but do this, "The reason why these rows have the highest price is because you can touch this big chandelier, isn't it?"

"It's really worth the price of admission!"

"This chandelier is nearly double the size of the premiere two years ago! I feel that the live effect is incredible!"

Amid the endless applause and cheers from the fans, the fall of the chandelier also symbolizes that the musical will enter the intermission time of the intermission, which will be played by the orchestra.

During this period, the cheers in the theater continued to ring out, and the applause resounded throughout the audience.

Critics agree, "MAJESTIC theaters are about to thrive again."

And 10 minutes later, when the next scene continued, the "New Yorker" drama critic paid close attention to the next classic "The Point of No Return", "I really can't wait to hear this low, fanatical aria."

After a not-so-long wait, the drama critic's expectations were finally met——

On stage, another bloody murder in the Paris Opera House, the phantom who replaced the original actor, wearing a veiled cloak, bewitched Christine, and his movements seduced and controlled Christine, "In your heart , you have given up all resistance and completely surrendered to me."

Christine tried to get rid of the phantom's confusion. She seemed to run away from the phantom's body, but approached irresistibly.

"Don't consider right or wrong," Erica sang the libretto written by Phantom, as if she couldn't help cooperating with him, "How long will we have to wait before we can become one."

And after being bewildered by instinct again and again, Christine tried her best to regain her senses. She lifted the cloak that covered the phantom's head, and stared at the silver mask on his face.

The appearance of the Phantom on the stage undoubtedly caused panic in the Paris Opera House again.

But the phantom didn't care about it at all, he just looked at Christine, and sang his love with a soft voice he had never heard before, "Say you will love me for the rest of your life, lead me, protect me, let me Get out of loneliness."

Christine looked at him in disbelief, and she showed a guilty and sad expression—the song "AllIAskofYou" was the aria she and Raul used to confirm their hearts on the rooftop, but the Phantom was verbatim right now. sing it.

"Say you want me to be with you, by your side," Phantom walked towards Christine holding the ring, "Wherever you go, let me go."

His eyes were moist, and the deep emotion in his voice almost trembled. He put the ring on her finger, "Christine, this is my request..."

The phantom's singing stopped abruptly—

Christine took off his mask in public.

What was even worse than the scene when the phantom mask fell off in the underground labyrinth last time was that at this time, the dark wig on his head was separated from the mask at the same time.

The Phantom's horrifying and distorted real appearance triggered screams of horror in the Paris Opera House.

"No!" Phantom roared in fear and anger, but Christine just cried in pain. She stared at Phantom without saying a word, as if her whole body was being shrouded in great pain.

The angry phantom took Christine to the underground palace again, and in the entire Paris Opera House, people tried to arrest the phantom's shouts, "Follow the murderer, we must catch him!"

Amid the impatient and urgent music, Phantom questioned Christine in pain and collapse, "Everyone is afraid of me, everyone hates me, no one accepts me, no one sympathizes with me, Christine! Christine! Why! Why! "

During his questioning, Christine had already burst into tears, and she couldn't make a sound from crying.

And Phantom was taking off the wedding dress he wore on the puppet made by Christine, and he put the wedding dress on Christine roughly, "This face has poisoned our love!"

"This face doesn't scare me anymore," Christine cried, holding his arm, "what's really twisted is your soul—"

"Wait, my dear, there are guests here." The Phantom's voice was dangerous and full of malice. He looked towards the entrance of the underground palace, and Viscount Raul was chasing him.

But Raul was easily put around his neck by the phantom, and he might lose his life at any time. He became a tool used by the phantom to coerce Christine, "I will exchange your love for his freedom. To refuse me is to let your lover die." to die."

Christine's expression was full of pain and anger, her mental strength was almost collapsed, she knelt down on the ground as if she was exhausted, and expressed her hatred to Phantom, but her voice was low as if she was talking to herself, "You deceived me!" I gave you my heart blindly."

But Phantom thought that Christine was just delaying time, he said to her in a cold and terrifying tone, his voice was still low and luxurious, "You are testing my patience."

In the auditorium, people could see tears streaming down Erica's fair face, but her singing voice was so gentle and holy, with unconcealable pity and distress, "Poor dark creature, what kind of life have you experienced? "

"God, please give me the courage to tell you—" Christine stood up unsteadily, and started to walk towards the phantom, and every step she took seemed to be becoming more determined.

She turned Phantom's body, tears kept rolling down, but tried to show a smile, and her singing was soft like an embrace, "You are not alone—"

At the same time as the end of her song fell, Christine embraced the phantom. She watched his terrifying face without any fear or disgust. In the passionate sonata, she leaned over to kiss the phantom amazingly.

The [-] spectators in the theater seem to be in their own shoes at this moment, completely immersed in the love-hate relationship between Phantom and Christine. The huge emotional energy makes people's eyes full of enthusiasm, and even many people are full of emotions The fans of the drama couldn't help but shuddered and cried for them.

On the stage, Christine's kiss full of infinite emotion awakened the Phantom almost like the glory of God.

He actually let Viscount Raul go, allowing him to leave with Christine, "Take her away, forget about me, forget about everything!"

"Get out of here! Forget everything you've seen!" He witnessed Raul taking Christine away. Amid the loud sound of urgent pursuit in the opera house, Phantom knelt down and shouted, "Go, leave me alone! Christine... Christine..."

The Phantom is no longer his strength, Christine's departure seems to have taken away his vitality at the same time, he whines in a low voice, only the sound of the juggling monkey's music box is still accompanying him in the underground palace.

However, she came back——

The Phantom turned to look at his Christine, so sad that she had come to give him back the ring.

Phantom's voice became hoarse, and she couldn't hide her grief, "Kristen, I love you."

Erika was crying so hard that she could hardly stand up straight. She kissed the ring deeply and put it in his palm. She tried to turn around and leave. Her steps were so heavy and slow. She walked up the stairs and sang in a low voice. Say, "Say you will love me for the rest of your life—"

In the auditorium, everyone could see that her back was facing Phantom, but her face seemed to want to turn around to look at him again and again, and her singing continued, "Say that sentence, and I will follow you .”

But before the Phantom answered, Viscount Raul, who followed Christine back to the underground palace, first reached out to her, "Share every day, every night, and every morning with me."

Christine finally chose to leave with Raul, she couldn't hear Phantom's sad and determined singing, "Only you can give my song wings, now it's all over, the movement of the night—"

And when the soldiers in the theater came after him, the phantom had disappeared into his underground palace.

Only the silver mask is left, silent and eternal.

"bravo!" In the MAJESTIC theater, there was a shocking and sensational cheer and applause, which lasted for a long time.

With the cheers, the actors of "The Phantom of the Opera" began to take the stage one by one.

And at the last moment, when Anthony and Erica, who played the phantom and Christine, came out together, the long-lasting warm applause reached its peak in an instant.

The audience stood up and applauded thunderously.

"Phantom! Christine! Anthony! Erica!"

"This incredible "Phantom of the Opera" will be my life's choice!"

"They brought the Phantom of the Opera legend back to life!"
