Colm Wilkinson is Irish.

Christine and the Phantom sing this at her father's grave. Raoul only enters later in 'Bravo, Monsieur'

6. Who is the male star at the operahouse (the operahouse IN the musical, so not 'The Phantom')?

Answer: Ubaldo Piangi

7. Which 'musical within a musical' occurs first in 'The Phantom of the Opera'?

Answer: Hannibal

'Hannibal' is first (Christine is introduced after this), followed by 'Il Muto' (the musical in which Carlotta begins to croak like a frog), and 'Don Juan Triumphant' (The Phantom is unmasked before the audience). Carmen does not appear in 'The Phantom of the Opera'.

8. How many songs does the Phantom sing solo on the soundtrack for the original Canadian cast?

Answer: 1

Just one - 'Music of the Night'. 'I Gave You My Music' is close, except that Raoul and Christine have a short interchange.

9. Who originally played Christine Daae?

Answer: Rebecca Caine

Did you say Sarah Brightman? Remember, this is about the CANADIAN version!

10. Which character dies first?

Answer: Buquet

Buquet dies before Piangi. Raoul doesn't die in the musical, and The Phantom merely disappears mysteriously...

11. What is Meg's last name?

Answer: Giry

Meg Giry, Christine Daae, Raoul de Chagny, and Ubaldo Piangi

12. Complete: 'Nothing can save you now, except perhaps _________!'

Answer: Christine

The Phantom sings this to Raoul in 'The Phantom's Lair' as he is being strangled by the magic garrote (also called the 'Punjab lasso').

13. Complete: 'Turn your face away from the ______ light of day'

Answer: garish

From 'Music of the Night'.

14. In many of the songs sung by The Phantom, Colm Wilkinson sings parts of it up an octave while Michael Crawford doesn't. Why is this?

Answer: Colm Wilkinson is a tenor

The score was originally written for a baritone Phantom. Colm Wilkinson is a tenor and couldn't reach some of the lower notes (and still sound good). They changed the score to give Colm the part, rather than giving him up.

15. During which 'musical within a musical' does the song 'Point of No Return' occur?

Answer: Don Juan Triumphant

The Phantom kills Piangi and takes his part in 'Don Juan Triumphant'. This is why he is singing with Christine, although she doesn't realize at first that it's him.

16. After the Phantom is unmasked in 'Don Juan Triumphant,' the Phantom sings a part of which song to Meg?

Answer: none of these

Trick question... The Phantom is singing 'All I Ask of You' to Christine. By the way, 'Overture' is instrumental... nobody sings in it.

17. Which of these characters are in love with each other?

Answer: Christine and Raoul

The clue is 'with each other': Christine does not return The Phantom's love.

18. What are the last four words sung as part of the musical?

Answer: music of the night

The Phantom sings: 'you alone can make my song take flight. It's over now, the music of the night'

19. Who, directly quoted from the song, is the 'first lady of the stage'?

Answer: Prima Donna

Although Carlotta IS the Prima Donna, the song doesn't say 'Carlotta, first lady of the stage; it says 'prima donna, first lady of the stage'.

20. Complete: 'And what is it that we're meant to have _____ ... written?'

Answer: wrote

Firmin sings this during 'Notes' (Right before 'Prima Donna').
