Judith Tobella (alternate Christine) and Manu Pilas (alternate Phantom) in Madrid. And yes, also a real-life couple!

From her Instagram

A little something of the alternates in the Madrid production!

[ballerinadellamusica]

So what happens in the Italy/Spain production when the Lasso/rising up the pole doesn’t work properly in the final lair.

Well, one option is the Phantom ‘ties’ Raoul’s hands around the pole and the noose just lightly hangs around his neck (think 2004 movie, kind of).

Raoul is no longer ‘hung’ and he just has to watch (or look away) as Christine & the Phantom kiss, Phantom then just releases his ‘hands’ and removes the noose from his neck.

Very well acted tonight by Manu, Judith & Guido, especially since they went into the scene expecting it to work (the seat for Raoul came out but there was just no rise up), if you didn’t know Raoul was meant to rise then you would have thought this was normal.

It also reminded me a bit of the replica version.

[meilas]

begging for someone to get video of Manu Pilas as the Phantom, please this man's final lair was basically all sobbing and wailing and I am down for that

[cursecuelebre]

Devotional playlist for Lady Athena, again quite random mostly heavy metal so hope this inspires you!

1. Medusa by Anthrax (thrash metal, the title says it all)

2. And Justice for All by Metallica (thrash metal, big attribute is justice of Athena).

3. One by Metallica (Thrash metal, anti war song that basically shows the horror of warfare and how veterans cope and struggle afterwards, it’s a depressing song forewarned).

4. Don’t tread on me by Volbeat (heavy metal, again a slogan during a time of oppression and it was covered by the original being by Metallica. Also snake symbol with Athena).

5. For whom the bell tolls by Metallica (thrash metal, again a war themed song adapted from Ernest Hemingway).

6. Barracuda by Heart (Rock and roll, not much to say but badass female song).

7. Overture 1812, op 49 by Tchaikovsky (classic music, used actual war cannons in that piece)

8. Spider knows his craft in Tales of the magic tree by Pavel Lyubomudrov (classical music, spiders and weaving is the most Athena thing ever)!

9. Orphic Hymn to Athena by Queenie (of course we need the traditional songs for her)

10. Bella Ciao by Manu Pilas (Folk song that was adapted for Anti-facist partisan).

11. All along the watch tower by Jimin Hendrix (Rock and roll and anti war song made during the protest against the Vietnam war).

12. Rime of the Ancient Mariner by Iron Maiden (Heavy metal, the song is adapted from the poem with the same name and the story reminded me of the Odyssey Athena had a huge role in that story).

13. Pink Venom by Blackpink (Kpop, it has a snake themed that’s why)

14. Pretty Savage by Blackpink (Kpop, a good empowerment song for women)

15. The Trooper by Iron Maiden (Heavy metal, song about war and death and riding into battle).

16. Holy wars…the punishment due by Megadeth (Thrash metal, essentially song about anti war and government even in the 80s also the talk about Israel and Palestine conflict was being discussed).

17. Sympathy of Destruction by Megadeth, (Thrash metal about a man can be corrupted by power by turning into a tyrant. Athena is a goddess to protect and destroy tyrants).

Home Sweet Home

Arthur's note: I made up my mindz, I'll be making Adventures with Mich episodes for when I'm bored. Enjoy.

Warnings: Major gore and creepy pasta

~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~

Mich was lying down on top of his ship, soaking up the sun. (Reference drawing here) Mich was on a water planet, on the outer solar system, enjoying his free time. Mich enjoys this type of atmosphere, calm, quiet, and peaceful. It was also very cold, Mich was at the most northern part of the planet. Mich enjoys the cold, it makes him relaxed and comfortable.

This water planet is also Mich's home base. His hide out, or more like a home that can be seen miles away, was an abandoned cargo ship that crash landed on the planet. Mich found the ship when he was traveling to different planets to find a place to call his own. As for why the cargo ship ended up here. The ship's log states that the ship was going to be decommissioned and was on its last cargo run, but they forgot to refuel the ship to bring the ship to a scrap planet after its cargo run, so to deal with this they abandoned the ship, letting it drift into space. It was a lucky find.

Another lucky find was that the ship still had some cargo, not a lot but hey, who's complaining, not Mich. The cargo was some ship parts, all were high-end parts. Mich also found somecritter's music playlist that they left, one of the songs on the playlist is Bella ciao that Mich will listen to a lot.

After Mich's sunbathing he then began tuning his ship. Red nose, Mich's ship, was a special ship, one of a kind ship. Red nose is a fast and agile ship, reaching speeds above 400 mph with its four engines. As for its agility, the ship is able to cut corners very sharp. Making it impossible to keep up, unless somecritter has the skill and ship to keep up, but Mich hasn't seen a critter with the ship and skills to defeat Mich, not yet at least. As for how Mich was able to get his paws on this ship, that's a story for another time.

Hours later

As Mich was working on his ship he finally got up to look at the sky, it was sun down. Seems Mich lost track of time while working on his ship. After Mich put away his tools he then entered the cargo ship, his home. As Mich was walking down the quiet and empty corridors of the ship he started to get sleepy, this always happens to him because inside the ship was always very cold, the cold would make Mich sleepy. After walking for a while he finally makes it to his room, after entering his room he would then collapse onto the bed, he then started to drift off to sleep wondering what will tomorrow bring.

Dream

Mich would find himself in a familiar place, his office in the weapons factory, in the dark. Mich was confused, why here of all places. As Mich was trying to think, he would hear the faint sounds of what sounded like meat and fur sizzling behind him. As Mich turned around he was met with a familiar sight, his boss, missing his right arm, half of his face and torso burned off, he was standing there, staring at Mich, with lifeless eyes.

Boss: "Why did you do it?"

Mich: "W-w-w.. what?"

Boss: "Why, why, why, why, why...."

Mich started to slowly walk backwards as his boss kept on saying "why", this was too eerie for Mich. As Mich was walking backwards something grabbed his leg making him fall onto his back. When Mich fell onto his back he noticed that he fell onto a pile of bosses. Paws started to come out of the pile, they then grabbed Mich and started pulling him into the pile, as Mich was struggling to escape more paws came out of the pile and grabbed Mich and started pulling him into the pile. Mich didn't have time to scream, he was trying so hard to escape, but to no avail. As Mich was being pulled deeper into the pile the pile of bosses started talking.

Bosses: "WHY, WHY, WHY, WHY, WHY!"

Midnight

Mich: "AAHHHH!"

Mich screamed awake, he immediately started looking around to see if he was in his room, he was. Mich sits there on his bed confused, he never had nightmares, let alone dreams. Mich was very puzzled by this nightmare. Mich sat there for thirty minutes before getting up, going to the bathroom and splashing his face with cold water. After splashing himself he then stands there looking into the water, something was not right but Mich couldn't figure out why. After standing there for another thirty minutes he then did his business in the bathroom, after his business he then put on his gear, and started walking to his ship. After arriving he gets on, starts the engine, and starts going into space to do some mercenary missions. He couldn't go back to sleep after that.

End.
