Cherik Headcanon
I get dibs on the idea that everything Cherik has, like his extra masks and clothes and stuffed birds and things, are all unwanted or broken things. Clothes from the costume department that were torn or tossed out and he fixed em up on his own, same with the birds i think got tossed out from an opera production and he saved them from the damp of the cellars which is why some of them look worse for wear And it’s like that with everything he owns. It’s always been unwanted and second best, but he took it, fixed it up, and gave whatever it was new worth That’s what iii think
I was just looking on Vinted and umh yeah that is one of an unexpected mix
#ReleaseTheProshots
That’s all I ask of you Broadway
The weekend’s release of the Hamilton film, there’s a new surge of energy and light in the lives of theatre geeks. With Broadway shutting down until 2021 due to the Covid Pandemic, a lot of people are affected and not just the audience but also to the ones behind the shows. A lot of people are losing income because there’s no show to receive revenue from. Broadway chooses to remain elitist by choosing not to release their archive of proshots to the public despite the royalties retrieved from them could help become a source of income. Releasing these proshots won’t result in people losing interest in watching the shows live, if anything it would actually increase people’s interest in watching the shows live:
Mainstream artists often release MVs and even full concerts to promote themselves online, they even monatize it (like BTS with THEIR online concert). Concert halls and stadiums still get filled by people who wants to watch them live because an offline experience will definitely be different from an online experience.
People without access to watch the shows live can actually watch them. I live in a place where no production has ever toured in and not even Disney+ is available, forcing my friends and I to find an alternative way to watch the Hamilton movie because we still don’t know when we’ll have access to it. This is just 6 people that I know, 6 out of thousands in the same position as we’re in. Making the proshots accessible for everyone would mean more money because you have a wider range of audience.
It’ll actually interest more people to watch it. Several people DM’d me to get information on where I watched Hamilton, people who I didn’t even think enjoyed theatre. Apparently they were intrigued by the hype and afterwards they were converted to fans after watching the Hamilton movie. Imagine that in a larger scale, I’m just one person and I managed to pull in at least 5 new people to love it.
Two excellent examples (besides Hamilton) are Les Miserables and Phantom of the Opera. Both musicals have movie adaptations, Phantom of the Opera has released a proshot of their 25th Anniversary show at the Royal Albert Hall, and Les Miserables has two concert performances. None of those releases negatively impacted the success and fame of the shows, if anything there was a new wave of Les Mis fans after the release of the 2012 movie which I no doubt we’ll see with the new Hamilton movie as well.
I say this once more, Broadway

Violin 101 for Phantom Cosplayers and Phan Artists
Here's a quick violin orientation video for any Phantom of the Opera artist, actors, and cosplayers. Learn how to achieve a convincing look for photoshoots or artwork and how/how not to hold the violin and bow!
Can everyone who reads this PLEASE reblog it?!?!? Libraries literally saved my life as a child!
Being abused at home, bullied at school and lost in the world, the library and all the books I could escape to the most amazing worlds, kept me alive!
I would walk to the library, and spend all day, from 10 am to 9 pm reading there!! I got special awards for how many books I read, I wrote little blurbs on why i loved the books (probably why I love to BETA and do ARCs)
PLEASE, PLEASE, PLEASE Just hit the green arrows and the reblog!!!
As a 50 year old woman, the library offers me so much. Digital art pads to borrow, 3D printing, book clubs that are face to face (yeah, the introvert likes face to face because a moderator will stomp on anyone getting snarky)
New books in LARGE PRINT! I’m visually challenged and as much as I love my kindle, The feel of a real book in my hands will always be a beloved feeling!
Our library also has quarterly books sales of almost free books!! For 5$USD we get in a day early and can buy as many as we want. Anyone else has to wait and there is a limit for the first 2 days.
Also many, many libraries have inter library loan(it may be called something different). This means if they don’t have the item you want, they can get it for you. This may include photocopy/pdf of articles. This can also include along with books and DVDs, microfilm/fiche which is also a huge resource. Check around for libraries that are listed as depositories if you want to look at government documents.
Remember that many colleges and universities have open stacks for the public. You will likely have to pay a membership fee but you will get to stuff.
List of songs from PotO 1990
I have just watched the PotO TV miniseries adaptation of 1990 !
It was very lovely and I really liked all the traditional french songs incorporated inside !! (also cherik ahah)
Sadly the songs are quite hard to find back or even to identify,, So I decided to try to regroup them and type them if possible in that post so maybe it can help some people fr some phan creations or even just sing them along the movie huhu ~ (also that way i can escape the stress of my oral in few hours,,)
Moreover, while I searched for the songs, I noticed the movie tended to modify/altern the lyrics most of the time, so I wrote the one sung in the movie by preference and the original is quoted so you can search for the original lyrics by yourself.
Sadly as I’m only French, I tried my best for the Italian operas’ ones but it’s very difficult for me to tell if some lyrics were added/removed bc of sound quality so sorry for the mistakes ¯\_(ツ)_/¯
There's a song or two sadly i couldn't identify so if you have any clues about them let me know ! ✨ (also very sorry on word its very clean but on tumblr somethings went berserk and the look isn’t changeable im so sorry it looks sometimes yurk like ;;)
Finally if you want english translation for the French songs I can provide some just ask me even tho it won't be perfect as English isn’t my native language tho (for Italians ones well too bad I don’t speak it but they’re easy to find online!)
(The songs are in order of apparition)
Song of Christine Daaé in the Attic w/ all the objects (inspired by "Auprès de ma Blonde")
“Elles viennent de chez mon père
Les lauriers sont fleuris
Tous les oiseaux du monde
S'en vont y faire leurs nids
Auprès de ma blonde
Qu'il fait bon, bon bon, bon bon
Di lala di li, La lilili la
Elle chante pour les filles
Qui n'ont point de mari
Ne chante pas pour moi
Car j'en ai un joli
Auprès de ma blonde
Qu'il fait bon, Lala ladi
Auprès de ma blonde,
La da dilili hon hon hon
Auprès de ma blonde
Qu'il fait bon dormir !”
Song of Christine Daaé wondering around the theater - first time Cherik sees her (Inspired by Laissez-moi planter le mai, only few lyrics)
“ -does some Aah/Lala/Dululu-
En riant, tout en riant
Laissez-moi- (dululu ..)
Moi qui suis gentil galant
Bergère il faut aimer
En riant, tout en riant
Laissez-moi planter le mai
Moi qui suis gentil galant ”
Faust by Charles Goudot : Act I - End of 1st scene, start of 2nd - Rehearsal of Faust (Récitatif & Duo)
“ (Faust)
Maudite sois-tu, patience!
A moi, Satan! à moi!
(Méphistopheles)
Me voici ! – D'où vient ta surprise ?
Ne suis-je pas mis à ta guise ?
L'épée au côté, la plume au chapeau,
L'escarcelle pleine, un riche manteau
Sur l'épaule ; – en somme
Un vrai gentilhomme!
("A moi!" echoing a bit until the scene is over)”
Norma by Vincenzo Bellini : Sediziose voci di guerra – 1rst Carlotta disaster (Italian)
“ (Norma)
Sediziose voci, voci di guerra
Avvi chi alzarsi attenta
Presso all'ara del Dio?
V'ha chi presume
Dettar responsi alla veggente
Norma, E di Roma affrettar il fato arcano?
Ei non dipende, no, non dipende
Da potere umano.”
Sonnambula by Vincenzo Bellini – Lesson w/ Cherik (Italian) I have heard it was this song but I really don’t know which one is it from the opera sorry
La Traviata by Giuseppe Verdi : Libiamo nè lieti calici (Brindisi) – 2nd Carlotta’s disaster (Italian)
“(Alfredo)
Che suscita l'amore, Poiché quell'occhio al core Onnipotente va. Libiamo, amore, amor fra i calici Più caldi baci avrà. (Everyone) Libiamo, amor fra i calici Più caldi baci avrà. (Violetta) Tra voi, tra voi, saprò dividere Il tempo mio giocondo; Tutto è follia, follia nel mondo Ciò che non è piacer. Godiam, fugace e rapido È il gaudio dell'amore; È un fior che nasce e muore, Né più si può goder. Godiam c'invita, c’invita un fervido Accento lusinghier. (Everyone) Godiam la tazza, la tazza e il cantico La notte abbella e il riso; In questo paradiso Ne scopra il nuovo dì. ”
Le Fiacre by Jean Sablon – First song sang in the bistrot by a woman
“ Un fiacre allait, trottinant, Cahin, caha, Hu, dia, hop là ! Un fiacre allait, trottinant, Jaune, avec un cocher blanc.
Derrièr' les stores baissés, Cahin, caha, Hu, dia, hop là ! Derrièr' les stores baissés On entendait des bai-baisers.
Puis un' voix disant : " Léon ! Cahin, caha, Hu, dia, hop là ! Puis un' voix disant : " Léon ! Pour ... causer, ôt' ton lorgnon !"
Un vieux monsieur qui passait, Cahin, caha, Hu, dia, hop là ! ”
(There’s a song while Philippe is talking but I have no clue what it could be)
Also there’s another song right after Cherik saying “I’ve never seen such perfection” I have nooooo idea what it could be but I was able to catch some lyrics (only the start bc the rest is inaudible w/ the charas voices on top of it)
“ Et que le diable emporte
Si je n’ai jamais su comment !
(S’il n’a jamais su comment !)
La deuxième et la première
Ainsi que la quatrième,
Elles pleurent
(Elles pleurent)
Je les pleure également !
Au-delà de la septième plaie(?)”
And then I don’t hear anything oops
Chevaliers de la Table Ronde – Last song before the Epic Opera Battle (I could catch only a line and the final one bc voices again but it seems that before the final line, the lyrics aren’t the same as what’s written online)
“(Man)
Allons soyons humble,
Chacun et portais-je
Ma vie prendre mes deux poussières ( ?? it makes no sense but i hear half of what theyre saying)
(…)
Sur ma tombe, je veux qu’on inscrive
« Ici-gît le roi des buveurs »
(Everyone)
Sur ma tombe, je veux qu’on inscrive
« Ici-gît le roi des buveurs »
(Man)
« Ici-gît ! »
(Everyone)
« Ici-gît ! »
(Man)
« Ici-gît ! »
(Everyone)
Dans la tombe !
(Man)
« Ici-gît le roi des buveurs
Ici-gît ! »
(Everyone)
« Ici-gît ! »
(Man)
« Ici-gît ! »
(Everyone)
Dans la tombe !
(Man)
« Ici-gît le roi des buveurs »
La fille du régiment by Gaetano Donizetti : Par le rang et l’opulence… Salut à la France – Christine vs Carlotta song
“Sous les bijoux et la dentelle, ah je cache un chagrin sans espoir
Sans espoir, sans espoir, sans espoir, sans espoir… A quoi me sert d'être si belle,
Lui seul, il ne doit pas me voir. (Carlotta then Christine)
Lui seul, il ne doit pas me voir.
Oh toi qui je fis ravir, Dont j’ai partagé le destin… Je donnerais toute ma vie
Pour pouvoir vous serrer la main ! Je donnerais
Je donnerais toute ma vie
Pour pouvoir vous serrer la main !
(Carlotta leaves)
Je donnerais toute ma vie
Ah, pour pouvoir vous serrer la…
Pour pouvoir vous serrer
La main…”
Laissez-moi planter le mai – Flashback of Christine and Philippe’s childhood
“Hier matin je m’y levais
Laissez-moi planter le mai
Vers le bois je m’en allais
En riant, tout en riant
Laissez-moi planter le mai
Moi qui suis gentil galant
Hier matin.. ”
Faust by Charles Gounod : Act II Scene 5 (Ainsi que la brise légère) – Christine’s disaster
“(Everyone) Ainsi que la brise légère Soulève en épais tourbillons La poussière de les sillons,
La poussière de les sillons, Que la valse nous entraîne ! Faites retentir la plaine De l'éclat de vos chansons ! De l'éclat de vos chansons !
(Faust) La voici ! ... C'est elle ! ...
(Méphistophélès) Eh bien, aborde-la !
(Siebel) Marguerite !
(Méphistophélès) Plaît-il ?
(Siebel) Maudit homme ! encor là ! ...
(Méphistophélès) Eh quoi, mon ami ! vous voilà ! ... Ah ah ! Vraiment ! mon ami ! vous voilà !
(Faust) Ne permettrez-vous pas, ma belle demoiselle, Qu'on vous offre le bras pour faire le chemin ?
(Marguerite) Non, monsieur ! je ne suis demoiselle, ni belle- !”
Faust by Charles Gounod : Act V scenes – Final song w/ Cherik interfering (Mix of several scenes)
“ (Act I Scene 2)
(Méphistophélès)
Je puis contenter ton caprice.
Je puis contenter ton caprice.
(Faust)
Et que te donnerai-je en retour ?
(Méphistophélès) Presque rien ! Presque rien ! Ici, je suis à ton service, Mais là-bas, tu seras au mien !
(Faust) Là-bas ? ...
(Méphistophélès) Là-bas... Allons, signe ! Eh quoi ! ta main tremble ! Que faut-il pour te décider ? La jeunesse t'appelle ; ose la regarder !
(From Act I Scene 2 to Act III Scene 4)
(Marguerite)
Ah ! je ris de me voir, Si belle en ce miroir ! Est-ce toi, Marguerite ? Est-ce toi ? Réponds-moi, réponds, réponds, réponds vite ! Non ! non ! – ce n'est plus toi ! Non ! non ! – ce n'est plus ton visage ! C'est la fille d'un roi, C'est la fille d'un roi, C'est la fille d'un roi, Qu'on salue au passage ! – Ah, s'il était ici ! ... S'il me voyait ainsi ! Comme une demoiselle, Il me trouverait belle.
Comme une demoiselle, Il me trouverait belle.
Comme une demoiselle, Il me trouverait belle. Achevons la métamorphose ! Il me tarde encor d'essayer Le bracelet et le collier ! Dieu ! c'est comme une main qui sur mon bras se pose !
Ah, ce n'est plus ton visage, Non ! c'est la fille d'un roi, Qu'on salue au passage.
(From Act III Scene 3 to Act V Scene 4)
(Méphistophélès)
(Le geôlier) dort, – voici les clefs, il faut Que ta main d'homme la délivre !
(Faust) Laissez-nous !
(Méphistophélès) Hâte-toi ! – Moi, je veille au dehors !
(From Act V Scene 4 to 5)
(Faust) Mon cœur est pénétré d'épouvante !
O torture ! O source de regrets et d'éternels remords ! C'est elle ! La voici, la douce créature, Marguerite ! Marguerite !
(Marguerite) Ah c'est la voix du bien aimé ! A son amour mon cœur s'est ranimé.
(Faust) Marguerite !
(Marguerite) Au milieu de vos éclats de rire, Démons qui m'entourez, j'ai reconnu sa voix !
(Faust) Marguerite !
(Marguerite) Sa main, sa douce main m'attire ! Je suis libre, il est là, je suis libre,
Il est là, je l'entends, je le vois !
Oui, c'est toi ! je t'aime ! Oui, c'est toi ! je t'aime ! Les fers, la mort même Ne me font plus peur, Tu m'as retrouvée, Tu m'as retrouvée,
Me voilà sauvée ! C'est toi bien, je suis sûre !
(Faust) Cherik
Oui, c'est moi, je t'aime !
Oui, c'est moi, je t'aime ! Malgré l'effort même Du démon moqueur, Je t'ai retrouvée !
Je t'ai retrouvée ! Te voilà sauvée
Te voilà sauvée
C’est moi, Viens, viens sur mon cœur !
(From Act V Scene 5 to 6)
(Méphistophélès)
Alerte ! alerte ! ou vous êtes perdus ! Si vous tardez encor je ne m'en mêle plus !
(Marguerite) Mon Dieu, protégez-moi !
(Faust) Both Viens !
(Marguerite) Mon Dieu, je vous implore !
(Faust) Both Fuyons ! Peut-être il en est temps encore !
(Marguerite)
Anges pure, anges radieux, Portez mon âme au sein des cieux ! Dieu juste, à toi je m’abandonne ! Dieu bon, je suis à toi, pardonne !
Anges pure, anges radieux, Portez mon âme au sein des cieux !
(Faust) Cherik
Viens, suis-moi, je le veux !
(Marguerite)
Anges pure, anges radieux, Portez mon âme au sein des cieux !
(Méphistophélès)
Hâtons-nous !
(Marguerite)
Dieu juste, à toi je m’abandonne !
(Faust) Both but Cherik is clearly dominant
Viens, suis-moi !
(Marguerite)
Dieu juste, à toi je m’abandonne !
(Faust) ^^^
Viens, suis-moi, suis-moi !
(Marguerite)
Dieu bon, je suis à toi, pardonne !
(Faust) ^^^
Viens, je le veux !

Dieu juste, à toi je m’abandonne !
(Faust)
Viens ! Viens !
Viens, c’est moi, c’est moi qui te l’ordonne !

Anges pure, anges radieux,
(Faust)
Viens, viens, quittons ces lieux !
(Marguerite)
Portez mon âme au sein le ciel !
(Faust) Both but clearly Cherik at the end
Déjà le jour envahit les cieux !* ”
(* = They sing it almost at same time so I tried to write it in the order they sing it but yeah as well a nightmare to follow as to type it down while listening to their wonderful voices at least ten times)

please reblog this i spent way too long on what was supposed to be a quick edit
Will someone please tell me what happened to book covers? Like this is my (2nd) copy of Susan Kay's Phantom, probably from 1993 or so. Look at it! It's so detailed and lovely.
This is the current cover.
What. The Fuck. Happened.
