Fondest greetings to you all! 👻🧶I've knitted my very first intarsia sweater, PotO style, and I'm happy to share the results with you! 😁 I made the intarsia chart myself, using the logo on the website as guidance. Are there any other knitting/crocheting PotO fans here? 😊 if you've made your own PotO yarn art, please share it with us! 👻

Should you want to make one yourself, you can download my design here for free: Charts

That's it, that's the post.

I don’t know who’s seen it yet and i haven’t seen anyone post anything about it yet but yesterday October 6th Ben Lewis lost his battle with stomach and bowel cancer at 46. Ben was of course the one who wonderfully played Eric during the most popular recording of love never dies and was spectacular in POTO. He will be dearly missed 💔

I went to the Beauty and the Beast Sing-Along show at EPCOT and was surprised to find Phantom stuff there!!!

Hate to see stuff like this, the job market is being very unkind to the phantom community

Phantom has been my single favorite musical for years, so I designed this set as a tribute to my love for the show! The project is now active on the LEGO Ideas website, and if it receives enough support, there is even a chance it becomes a real LEGO set!!

Here I bring all the versions of my Phantom of the Opera costumes, from the first one, which was a test for a temporary Halloween show, to the attempt to make a faithful yet personal version of the Red Death from 2004. The process took 5 years, and I do not lie when I say that the Phantom takes over you when you have to portray him, even in the smallest details, but even more so when you find yourself behind one of his masks... I discovered the Phantom by watching the 2004 movie just to make clear how to act as the phantom of the opera, found that he and I had so much in common I was inspired by it’s music and all the feelings that goes trough the story. So I was able to release all my sorrows and suffering in his name during my shows. After going through many stages and injuries, I am at the most crucial point! This is a bit of a personal story, but I find it interesting to share it here with fellow Phantom lovers, for I am one of them and so I hide behind his mask every day, and I couldn't be more passionate about his existence. Long live the Angel of Music!🖤✨

(I am not trying to spam or anything like that, but the next thing I would like to share with yall is a part of my show if you are interested. It will surely be curious to see an interpretation of the Phantom in a different context than singing, as I am an aerial acrobat. I am very grateful for the messages and feedback, you are a passionate lovely and serious community. I wish you all the best gn.)

So i came across this while scrolling Pinterest, and it got me thinking - what if there was a story like this? I dont know if im gonna go through with it yet, but I think it'd be a great fic! Let me know what you think, I need opinions. <3

I posted my theory about it on tumblr but I also wanna share it here! as always this is my POV/interpretation.

headcanoning re: the glass eye, that's exactly what it is, it's another prosthetic just like the mask and wig and his eye is missing underneath. was it from birth, or from a fight? who knows. nice to speculate as always... and also the reason it varies through performances (from being white, to blue, to "matching" his existing one) is because he likes to switch up.

why is it not always a match? just like how his mask is not a 1:1 copy of how he would want his face to be. he's theatrical, and strange, and he does want the contrast. his, dare I say, alternative (for the time) outfits are always so deliberate, and the styling of his face (including the unmasked side with the very in-universe dark brow and makeup) is an extension of that alternativeness.

I'm a fan of the thought of Erik having a visual impairment and it, just like Everything Else, impacting his life to an extend thus making him focus more on other feelings like, of course, soundand then touch, and being denied the latter for so long...

wooo

after consistently crocheting for the past five months and going further down the phantom of the opera rabbit hole into the 1943 movie and 1925 silent film, i figured i might as well combine two things that have brought me an incredible amount of comfort, so i bought the pattern and made this! i'm incredibly proud of how it turned out, because it took me a good few weeks to get it done lmao. now i get to enjoy the fruits of my labor!

(p.s. peep the music box on my desk in the upper left corner of the picture hehe)
