Dean, You Ignorant Slut.

They did a Phantom reunion, with Ramin Karimloo, Hugh Panaro, Norm Lewis, Howard Mcgillin and Sierra Boggess, (queen!) even showed up and it was...slight chaos. Some highlights include:

Ramin and Sierra remind me of the two besties that talk shit and cut up in class. Their friendship is adorable and wholesome and I am here for it.

Sierra showing up like "HEARD Y'ALL WERE TALKIN' SHIT-"

Hugh apparently got stuck on the angel statue at the end of Act 1 and remained there during intermission. Audience members would come to take pictures and of course, he remained in character, the whole time.

The angel statue also fucked up for Ramin, one time and due to safety protocols programmed into the angel and whatnot, the chandelier did not come crashing down.

Howard recalled a story, where one night, the actor playing Raoul became 'violently ill' and had to run offstage and his Christine, sang the remainder of "All I ask of you" by herself.

Ramin doesn't breathe before the A flat in Music of the night and:

Seth: *kidding around* Is it easier for you, or are you just showing off?

Sierra: *Makes a HMMMM face*

Ramin: Oh. Look, Sierra knows!

Sierra: Ask ME that question!

Seth: Well anyway, here's a clip of you-

Ramin: Aw no, don't play that sh-

Norm, before he started as Erik, once did a teaser of MOTN and trolled the whole fucking audience, like a pro:

"Close your eyes, let your spirit start to soar... and-if-you-wanna-hear-the-rest-buy-ticketsto-see-the-show!"

Norm: I would like to say something after Ramin sings.

Sierra: I would like to say something, while Ramin sings!

Ramin: You would!

Ramin singing and playing 'Feed the birds' on acoustic guitar, while Sierra pantomimes it and Ramin is trying not to break.

Howard's reaction whenever something funny happens. He's a precious bean.

But what caused me to laugh so hard that I legitimately cried was Hugh telling a story about how the boat broke down during the final lair.

"Maybe I'd seen Mommy Dearest too many times, (oh no-) but I turned into Joan Crawford Phantom. I grabbed Sandra Joseph and went "GET OUT OF THAT BOAT!" *Dramatic Joan Crawford point*

(And then he did the cuckoo motion! Yes sir, we know good and well, your Erik is pretty unhinged!)

Just the way he pointed and the voice he used got me. I was crying and had a snort attack. Fun fact, if you can get me to snort, you've got me good. If you can get me to snort uncontrollably... you've broke me lol

And then to top it off, I thought I was safe and this man goes: "NO WIRE HANGERS!" ...While I've got tea in my mouth. Tea was violently inhaled and my hysterics were brought right back.

Mommy Dearest is one of those movies, where I should not be laughing- Joan Crawford should not have been allowed to adopt children- but fuuuuck me, the movie was over acted and I feel bad for her daughter that wrote the book and had to see that nightmare of an adaption.

On boy. Now, I'm probably going to be giggling hysterically at the word 'boat' with no context now, huh?
