But many non-replica versions has incorporated it into the staging, as a part of the storytelling of the trio (Phantom, Christine, Raoul).Last week, we said happy trails to Come From Away, which rose on the grosses chart in its final week. what s behind that mask as wellThis book isn t my typical read I normally. …it’s just that the long-stemmed red rose the logo and some promo photos “promise” us is not a part of the story itself. That said, the replica show DO offer quite a bit of roses in general: And variations of this, with or without rose, is what’s been used ever since.

So the rose was kept as a more abstract element, and the “ghost” logo made the key element. Possibly because it was considered way too similar to the only musical failure ALW had experienced at the time - Jeeves, which even had premiered at Her Majesty’s Theatre. Probably for this reason, it became a part of the original ”Phantom of the Opera” logo, with a white-gloved hand holding a red rose: It’s a strong symbol of love and passion. It’s a part of an iconography people immediately get, think “Beauty and the Beast”, think “The Nightingale and the Rose” by Oscar Wilde.
