Act I - 3. Only For You

5th November 2010

Love Never Dies

Backstage The entire company strikes a tableau, to thunderous applause. Then, as they break pose and run off, the stage revolves again so that we're backstage. Upstage, we see GANGLE still addressing the audience... GANGLE: Ladies and Gentlemen, Miss Meg Giry, the Ooh La La Girl! Five shows daily, only here at Phantasma. We begin to cross fade to MEG, backstage. And now, the aerial exoticism of the fabulous Miss Fleck - half bird, half woman, all for only 10 cents a ticket...

In the corridor backstage, showgirls andfreaks rush back andforth, finding their places for the upcoming peiformances. MADAME GIRY enters. She is clearly in charge: a stony, commanding presence. GIRY: Hurry up people! You have four more shows today!

She stops dead in her tracks. RAOUL, startled, turns. The PHANTOM also startled, whirls around to hide hisface. During the following exchange he takes the opportunzty to vanish. MEG: Mother said I'd find you here. RAOUL: (stands, with an attempt at dignity) Miss Giry. MEG: Do you know where we are?

RAOUL: He!] I imagine? (cue for music) MEG: Around here, thev call it "Suicide Hall". It's where people end up when they don't know where else to go. The hopeless ... the desperate. Agood place to step off tlie s1de of the pier and quietly vanish. RAOUL: (drily) You seem to be a regular. MEG: (simply) Me? I come here to .sWm. (cue for MEG to continue) 110 _fj

RAOUL enters. He seems to have undergone a transformation. Impeccably dressed, dapper and handsome, RAOUl's visage bears no trace ofhis customary scowl. RAOUL: Indeed she does. As lovely as she looked the very first time I came to her dressing-room door. CHRISTINE (clearly touched): And look at you, Raoul. You look just like that handsome boy in the Opera box, the one who would always toss me a single red rose ...
