Phantom of the Opera celebrates its 25 birthday today, making it the longest running musical Broadway history.  Playbill.com gives all the background information on the famous attendees, including the incredibly handsome and talented Hugh Panaro. It’s really a shame his face is covered up for most of the show.  I saw it for the first time in 2010 (kind of crime when since we go to New York every year for Thanksgiving), and loved it more than I could have imagined. Plus, Sierra Boggess, the current Christine, is just perfect.
