I'm sorry you didn't enjoy Phantom. Had you never seen it before? It's a pretty famous musical that can come across as dated. It's based on an 1800's novel, so the themes/characters aren't up to date. I've always thought the songs were very powerful though. They're certainly hardcore vocal-wise!
The Globe is also offering free weekend performances and this past weekend was Hamlet. I wasn't paying much attention to it until I looked up and saw that a woman was playing Hamlet; something I've never heard of before! Several other main characters were also played by women, and Ophelia was played by a man; it was incredible! This upcoming weekend is Romeo and Juliet, my least favorite Shakespearean play, and I wonder if there will be genderbending there too; I hope so!
I'd love to read more about your RP adventures! I've been playing for years, and with being quarantined the two games per week have been moved online, which I don't enjoy as much. But it's interaction at any rate.
