Since my beloved Phantom's reign is coming to an end (his last day is next Saturday

), I decided to take in a show last night.
Howard's in great shape, and the rest of the cast was wonderful as well.
What I didn't expect to see, however, was the Phantom taking a little spill during "Music of the Night".
He scared the hell out of me with that little tumble (though I have to admit, I almost laughed as well

).
The amazing thing about him, though, is that he was back up on his feet in a blink of an eye, and continued on without missing a beat.
I bet some people didn't even notice it.
Thankfully he wasn't hurt, and we laughed about it after the show when I saw him at the stage door (I had to make sure he was alright!).
I've seen Christine and Raoul trip and tumble before (at different performances - Chris during the graveyard scene and Raoul during the curtain call).
Now, I can truly say I have seen it all.

Oh, how I love that man...
