The Phantom of the Opera

Yesterday Mom, Abby, Kara P, Becca, Megan, my grandma, great grandma, aunt, and I went to KC to see the Phantom of the Opera. IT WAS SOOOOOO GOOD!!!!!!!!!! EXCELLENT! SUPERB! PHENOMENAL! OUTSTANDING! I could gush on it forever... We attended the 2:00 matinee, I was ready to go see the 8:00 show! The actor who played the Phantom was breathtaking, he WAS the Phantom! Christine was great, and Raoul was ok, but he seemed a little snobbish. Patrick Wilson is still my favorite Raoul. Needless to say, I'm going to do everything in my power to go see it again!

We did have meet an interesting person at the show though. :S I came out of the bathroom and saw my grandma talking to a guy. I didn't recognize him but I figured he must have known her since he kept putting his hand on her back...When we finally got away from the extremely extroverted person, I discovered, she had never met him before in her life! I was a little creeped out, but thought nothing of it as we went into the Theater. Sitting in the Theater with hundreds of seats, I realize that the person sitting directly NEXT to us is...yep you guessed it...Mr. Social-Freak. I was getting very worried and just started praying...:D He asked Abby( who had the unfortunate task of sitting next to the guy) a zillion questions and was getting very personal and was very controlling of the conversation. Finally Kara, being the brilliant mastermind she is, steered him to other topics. LOL!!! When she found out he didn't know what an oboe was, she promptly started discussing classical music. :D It shut him up a little bit. Thankfully he didn't talk during the show...I probably would have done something not so kind...ANYWAY! The moral of this story is, always stay in a group...and always ask nosy people their opinion on Bach's Brandenburg Concerto #4...
