My overall impression

This show is simply mesmerizing. From the moment Bianca (Willow) opens her mouth she captivates the room with her voice. The music and sound was spot on. The music direction was so well done that it seemed as though the group had a universal technique they were all using which really allowed you to sink in to the music and style of the piece. I did feel the story was a little weak with the resolution in the end but I feel that can be easily worked on after this great run. Phantom of the opera has been told and I have higher hopes for this show and for the story of Willow to rise above this struggle instead of becoming another victim to the monster. Otherwise I’m in love with this show and can’t wait to it again!
