We've passed the point of no return as we dissect Andrew Lloyd Webber's masterpiece, the O.G., The Phantom of the Opera. The musical will soon close on Broadway after a record-breaking 35 years, over 10,000 performances, and a staggering $6,000,000,000 profit. On this episode we'll peer behind the mask to better understand why this show had such an impact and lasting legacy.
