what did the original picture of Christine inspecting the Phantom's hands look like?

It's this one! The actors are John Martin Bengtsson and Frida Engström : )

Following up the post about the most original non-replica productions, here's a photoset on moments I thought rather original in the POTO Kristianstad production (2020-2023):

Apart from the tiny tweak of the auctioneer being a woman, the auction scene itself was rather traditional. But the moment the chandelier came to life and started rising, some columns started tipping over, drapes were removed, and the set was slowly transformed into Hannibal. The original moment was having Raoul stumble around in this set, as if he was reliving some painful memories from his youth. Surprisingly touching staging.

The title song was another original take on a familiar view. For the first half a gate separated the misty stage into two areas. The Phantom and Christine - and a set of doubles crossed the stage, mirroring eachother's moves, which created a sense of a fascinating fairytale world.

Come the actual boat scene, the boat was as simple as two gates rising from the floor. The actors stood more or less still while rocks crossed the stage at irregular intervals, making it look like the boat was moving. Another super simple and super effective trick.

The Phantom's lair had some surprises in store. Whereas the floating candles reminded of the Restaged Tour, more or less, the amount of "spare masks" the Phantom had stacked up on each side was downright impressive. Extra cred for the creepy doll at the floor, which at one point got up and danced a violent waltz with Christine, making her faint...!

As for the Phantom himself, creating a horizontal half-mask instead of the usual vertical one felt more original than say making the mask grey or golden. It felt like a proper reinterpretation of the look (moreso than the leather coat, which Estonia and Serbia had also proudly featured). Extra bonus for a flawless mask fit.

Fast forward to the Masquerade scene, having Red Death 1. Crash through a giant mirror wall, and 2. Disappear in a twirl, just leaving his cloak / costume behind was the definition of magic tricks. Alas I only ever found photos of the in-between action, but it gives a glimpse of the mirror wall and the skull head costume.

In the same vein, the Phantom disappeared in a similar manner, walking through the scattered back wall, lit up by bright yellow light as it happened. I'm not quite sure what to read into that. Flames of hell? Redemption? Anyhow...

(for more of my thoughts of the production, have a look at this sort-of-review from when I saw the production in 2023)
