I'm a huge fan of The Phantom of the Opera musical. I didn't care for the Emmy Rosum movie, this DVD was so much better than that! While it is not a full staging of the production (the chandelier doesn't crash to the stage for one notable change), it is very true to the original. The cast is exceptional and the stage and sets beautiful. It's not as good as seeing it in the theater, but it's the next best thing!
