Stay

Jareth to Sarah: Stay and be my Queen and I'll make your dreams come true.

Erik to Christine: Stay and I'll make your voice heard and adored forever.

Hatter to Alice: Stay and I'll make your life full of wonder and laughter.

Beetlejuice to Lydia: Stay and I'll never let you feel lonely and unappreciated again.

Just stay and love me because I will never stop loving you.

Did you tell him, Alina (Christine)? Does the boy know how willing you were to give yourself to me? Did you tell him what I showed you in the dark?

The Point of No Return 🥀

These are the enchanting words that come to mind when I think about what Baldwin and Phantom have in common. I'm sure these would be that crossed Baldwin's mind about the woman he loved.

"That fate, which condemns me to wallow in blood,

Has also denied me the joys of the flesh,

This face, the infection which poisons our love."

Thanks to @imyselfam-strangeandunusal inspiring me to imagine King Baldwin as the Phantom.

Erik and Christine ICONS!!

The angst is just about as insane as the tension. Usually im not a fan of the Phantom OR their relationship, but this performance I was all for it 😍!

maturing is realizing that raoul is 1,000% a better match for christine and that although the phantom is a tragic character who is also deserving of love, he was violent and manipulative with christine from the jump. like why are you cosplaying as her dead father and calling her a viper???

Couples Summed Up if they got their HEA:

Jareth & Sarah: The perfect royal couple

Erik & Christine: The mysterious artistic couple

Hatter & Alice: The adventurous quirky couple

Beetlejuice & Lydia: The strange and bickering but hopelessly devoted, can't live a day without you and don't want to couple.

This is word for word what I've been saying the last 15+ years since falling in love with the Phantom of the Opera musical. He definitely represents her sexual awakening and Raoul = innocence/young love. The only good thing about Love Never Dies is we get confirmation she did love him and came back for a passionate night of love making which resulted in pregnancy leading to carrying Erik's child.

I feel like The Phantom of the Opera can be a metaphor for how society shames women for their sexual desires. Women must aim to be chaste. The Phantom represents Christine's sexual awakening, while Raoul represents her innocence.

Christine and Raoul met as kids; he is the light, "the good guy", chastity, etc. He is everything to be loved in the open air, in the light for all to see and approve of. Meanwhile Erik is darkness, "the bad guy"; he is the passion kept in the night and out of sight. He lurks in the darkness and is everything to be feared, but also everything to be loved with great passion. The kind of passion that is often shamed when it is women who pursue it.

Ultimately Christine chooses the light (what she is expected to choose), over the darkness (the passions and desires a woman is often shamed for).

I always hold the interpretation that the one Christine truly loved was Erik; she only chose Raoul because she was pressured into making a choice, and, well, see my points above.

Plus Erik became all homicidal, oops. But I know she did love him.
