"Phantom" to pass 20-year mark on Broadway
I went to see "Phantom" on Broadway when Sarah Brightman and Michael Crawford were playing the leads (although when I went Sarah's understudy was playing her part as she was sick). "Phantom" was one of the first musicals I ever went to see. It is kind of amazing to think my daughter could go see it on Broadway also.
It is of note that "Phantom" has outlasted several other acclaimed and popular musicals. Les Mis, Rent (closing this summer), and others have not had the staying power of "Phantom". Its nice to see "Phantom" survive the disnyfication of Broadway.
