It might surprise you to know that there are families out there that did not spend most saturday mornings cleaning the house while the Phantom of the Opera blared throughout the entire house. No, I don't mean they listened to "Porgy and Bess" or "West Side Story" instead. I mean they didn't listen to any music at all.. Or worse -- they listened to Country and Western.
Jenn came from one of these such families. Musicals were for weirdos. So about eight years ago, as we were cleaning out our junk - we came across my CD of the original cast of Phantom. Maybe I was just embarrassed to be one of those musical weirdos, so I just tossed it.. But as I recall, she looked at that CD and said "What do we need that for? You don't ever listen to it anyway..."

So we went to see the Broadway Across America production of Phantom last week... and Jenn loved it... as a matter of fact -- she can't stop singing it.. The only problem is, it comes out something like this:

Mas-que-rade, dah-dah de daah daah daah dum!
