"For $33/student ticket, it was great.\nFor regular prices, it was ok.\nIt's not very fair b/c I've watched Phantom 2 times prior in LA and OC, so I was pretty much sick of it after the 3rd.\nI liked the LA cast much better...I remember Christine and the Phantom being much more colorful and the acting much much better.\nI also remember more dancers and \"fillers\".\n\nThe set design and the costumes were beautiful, but was so all other theaters (LA and OC).\nThe fireworks hurt my eyes ALOT! This should be a NO-GO!\n \nThe best part was the unexpected upgrade.\nMy sis and I was upgraded from Cat 2 (center front) seats to Cat 1 (orchestra a few rows from the front). \nOur seats were already good but the upgrade was amazing for only $33! haha\n\nI think my whole family got sick of Phantom from the begining to end of our stay at Palazzo.\nThe whole hotel, including Venetian, was overplaying the Phantom music at every lil corner.\nIt didn't help that I had my mom and sisters watch the movie the night before.\n\nNo more Phantom for me."^^ .
