and other obsessions of mine. Past the point of no return and say you'll share with me the barricade of fandoms on this journey trough musicals. The game is on.
Phantom of the Opera Trieste Italy 7/15/23 Evening Show Video Filthybonnet's Master Gift
I finally have it ready for any and everyone who wants a copy. I made this not only for me but for everybody who couldn't go. I knew lots of people were going to want to see this. I knew if anyone else made a boot of this, it was probably going to become one of those super rare boots people hoard and I hate that crap. Remember this is a gift. If you put it on your list of boots and somebody wants it you have to give it to them, no trades! Or just direct them to this post.
There were a lot of people who wanted to pay me for this and I shot that down fast. However, if you want to leave me a tip, I did set up a Ko-fi and will include the link here.
I know it's not the best quality boot but I hope you enjoy it. Included in the folder is a PDF of the official program the theatre actually sent out to ticket purchasers.
I got some requests for more proshot LND footage, so here we go! Short clips of Ramin Karimloo and Sierra Boggess in Beneath a Moonless Sky and Once Upon Another Time.
That’s all I have featuring these two. Please enjoy :)
I’ve opened some new bids for playbills currently in my collection!
For those who don’t know, I am currently selling playbills from my old collection to make some ends meet. I am currently unable to work as much as I normally would due to the fact I’m battling symptoms from a new round of anxiety medications, as well as undergoing a lot of pain from my rare condition called Thoracic Outlet Syndrome. I need extra money for medical bills, groceries, and rent this month.
TO START, IF YOU DON’T WANT ANY PLAYBILLS BUT WANT TO HELP MY PARTNER AND I PAY OUR BILLS, MY PAYPAL IS [HERE]
EVEN IF YOU CANNOT BUY, PLEASE REBLOG.

There are actually 3 masks!!! <3 <3 <3
And look how cute and young and handsome he looks without beard and with that hair! He’s exactly like he was 7-8 years ago.
Ramin has the Phantom’s mask from ‘Love Never Dies’ on view!!!
I’ve just thought of something and it breaks my heart.
As we know, Valjean sings (different versions of) ‘Who am I?’ twice: when he is struggling whether to denounce himself or not and when he confesses to Marius.
Firstly, none of them is about a personality crisis. ‘Who am I?’ is not a question through which Valjean tries to find or refind his identity. He surely knows who he is and that’s the real problem, because he is afraid, ashamed of what he is (was) and tortured by it and he can’t escape from those feelings. The irony of the fate keeps remembering him that.
In the first situation the question Who am I? is about a choice. It’s more a synonym of the French version Comment faire? (What should I do?) or has the sense of Who should I be?: to remain monsieur Madeleine, the mayor, or […] to resume his own name, to become once more, out of duty, the convict Jean Valjean; that was, in truth, to achieve his resurrection, and to close forever that hell whence he had just emerged; to fall back there in appearance was to escape from it in reality. […] He would enter into sanctity only in the eyes of God when he returned to infamy in the eyes of men. […] Should he remain in paradise and become a demon? Should he return to hell and become an angel? [...] What was to be done? Great God! what was to be done?
In the second situation the question is more about an assurance. He knows this time there is no going back, there is no escape and there is no choice. The struggle is bigger not because the decision is harder to be taken. Quite the contrary. He is more sure than ever what decision he must take, but it is heart rending, more painful than the last time he had to reveal himself, because now it’s about Cosette, the only person he loves with all his heart. He doesn’t ask himself Who am I? anymore, he knows the answer, but this time the question is addressed to Marius and through him, to the entire society. Perhaps the last drop of hope is still in Valjean’s heart. He wants to say: ‘Now you know the truth, you know my life, my sins. Who am I? In your eyes, who am I?’ And when Marius answers: ‘You’re Jean Valjean’ he understands. He is no more for anyone monsieur Flauchelevent or Cosette’s father or a father to us both, he is just the convict, the criminal, the thief. The world didn’t forgive him. (His fortune that he didn’t do anything of what he did for the forgiveness of the world). He is still condamned. This is the final state. And what’s more hurtful is that Marius says: ‘Monsieur, you cannot leave’ not because he keeps some gratitude for giving me Cosette or respect for Valjean’s honest life in the past 20 years (surely Marius heard about his acts of charity, his faith, his goodness) but because he doesn’t know what to tell Cosette about his going. It’s good that he thinks of Cosette, but the way he does it is bad. He agrees too easily the girl and the man that made her who she is now to be separated like that. I almost can hear Valjean whispering for himself after Marius’ answer: In his eyes, I see his fear: ‘I do not want you here.’
