Maury Yeston's musical
Phantom was performed in 2004 by the Cosmos Troupe of the Takarazuka Revue, a Japanese all-female musical theatre troupe. Youka Wao played Erik and Mari Hanafusa played Christine.
It was also performed in 2006 by the Flower Troupe and starred Sumire Haruno and Ayane Sakurano.
If you've never heard of this version I think it is just amazing, particularly the Cosmos version. Wao is one of my new favorite Phantoms. She has such a great voice. I really like her mask, too. xD
I didn't get to see it live, unfortunately. But that's what we have YouTube for.
