Episode 2: Dear Daaé: Backstage at THE PHANTOM OF THE OPERA with Ali Ewoldt

[@bway_car08]

RODNEY SINGING IN SPANISH WAS AMAZING

[@herestia_photography]

His voice was SOOO similar to the one I heard on the 2004 film (way before I rewatched it in English, been just a 10 y/o girl) that I had chills (that multiplying :3 ).

[@einezcrespo2107]

And singing to a Funko Pop.

[@xenerii]

i think i fell in love

[@Shadow3103]

Dear Laird, I believe in Toronto it was phrased, "Christine Daae, where is your red hockey stick?"

[@xxkewldudexx]

Shadow3103 😂😂😂

[@baileybieganek2446]

Christine Daae, where is your red toque?

[@christinedaae5899]

@@baileybieganek2446 Why would Raoul ham up his own line? Silly Raoul!

[@rebellehopes5899]

The most diversity I've seen in a long time Erik - Speaks Swedish Christine - Speaks Filipino Raoul - Speaks Spanish Carlotta - Speaks Dutch Madam Giry - Is Australian

[@MileyL12]

Don’t forget, Monsieur Andre speaks Canadian :)

[@uncreativeusername4181]

poto where everything is the same but everyone sings in whatever language and nobody questions it. break a leg at prima donna and final lair.

[@zoerosiee]

The Phantom cast is so stacked with diverse talent!! I loved watching this so much. And LEA

[@dontpugme]

Hahahaha the big group number at the family reunion is like the most Filipino thing ever. In my family one year, they wrote a mini musical about one of the great great grandmothers and performed it at the reunion.

[@kingikiller]

Her Family reunion was litty. At my family reunions theres usually just a big punch up and hurt emotions.

[@merle-k]

So happy to hear German & Dutch in here! Also I think I saw Elizabeth play Christine when I saw the Phantom in Oberhausen in 2016, she was amazing!

[@piab2774]

Merle Karpenstein i did see her as well. She was amazing :)

[@taylorsanders9815]

I LOVE PHANTOM ITS THE BEST SHOW IN THE WORLD

[@JulietteVeronica1201]

Taylor S SAMEEE

[@alliekuma4234]

Ok, I freaked out on the Lea Salonga part. Also, I love how diverse the cast is. It's awesome how so many of the cast came together from different parts of the world to follow their dreams of being on Broadway. So awesome. Also, that ending! Lol

[@aaaacarolina]

LEONE'S BACK

[@didi1232001]

THE RETURN OF LEONE

[@paulamusik2509]

I loved the idea of an "international Episode".

[@BroadwayGuy25]

Hooray for Maree Johnson! She was the first Christine I ever saw in 'Phantom', in Sydney (December 21, 1994 if you want the specifics). She was superb. Please include her in 'Club Christine' if you decide to revive that in this series. :)

[@LindavMil]

I loooovee this! I'm Dutch actually, so funny to hear Carlotta in Dutch hahaha. And loove the diversity of nationalities in the cast

[@skylar_sparks]

Omg Your voice is amazing your such an amazing singer! Wish I could see the phantom 30th anniversary but sadly I can't I'm a very busy woman but I'll definitely celebrate it when I get the time to

[@bluefairiedust]

Peter Jobeck can sing to me in that language any day *melts*

[@kebenekajsa]

His recording of "Music of the night" in swedish is on spotify. It is called "Nattens musik".

[@bluefairiedust]

*Looks it up immediately* Thanks for the heads up!

[@whatamidoingwithmylife6769]

Seeing international actors on Broadway really inspires me. It helps me believe in myself. Maybe I can make it to Broadway one day, who knows?

[@christinaskaggs9689]

[@LizzyLovesYou09]

[@MadamoiselleSushiCat]

6:25 I think I might have a slight crush on Rodney Ingram

[@cattomito]

I wish I had a family reunion like that here in the Philippines ;

[@noahluhtjarv7110]

I love how Ali is just hanging out and drinking tea while wearing a huge powdered wig!

Saw this for the first time on Saturday and I was so blown away! Quietly sobbing in the rear mezz because of the ending and also the fact that it was over haha ! I love everything about this production, including the cast members :) Love you so much Ali x

[@JG.Artistry]

this warms my heart and you both are LEGENDS

LEONE!!!!!!

[@cassnieves]

I want a full Spanish version of All I Ask of You now ugh give the people what they want

[@ethannavarro943]

The diversity is fantastic!!!

[@peachygrace3523]

I remember seeing Ali play Christine back in March of 2017, CHANGED MY LIFE, just this one show, made me decide on my major in college, BFA in musical theatre

[@catherinebracy4332]

SAME! I've never seen Phantom live, but I hope to someday! For me, being inspired by both Michael Crawford's determination with the character he created and Sierra's vlog "Daae Days" has made me decide. After I get my Associate's Degree in Creative Writing after this coming year of college, I'm gonna go to Syracuse University in New York to earn my BFA and hopefully rise through the ranks to play Christine, which has turned into my dream role! So I guess I'll see you at the Majestic in 5 years!

[@baileybieganek2446]

More Canadians! That Carlotta is awesome! Its funny I totally knew what lines she was saying even though they were in Dutch

[@Keara23]

These are my favourite videos ever 😍😍😍

[@rickym242]

This might be my favorite Broadway.com vlog episode because you get to hear everyone sing Phantom in a different language!

[@elineouwerkerk8355]
