Let’s play phantom-adaptation-mash-up, how would the ending change?
I’ll go first:
Leroux Erik / Kay Christine
They get married, and Erik is excited just to hold hands. Christine immediately goes into bang-the-skelly-man mode. Erik dies instantly.
Cherik / Leroux Christine
They get married. Have five kids. Cherik is the best stay-at-home-dad and husband ever. Christine becomes a world-famous opera singer.
Kerik / ALW Christine
Literally the exact same plot as the musical but he probably gets a black eye at some point (courtesy Christine), and some very bruised shins. Also Christine does not return the ring. She gets the hell out of there.
STOP WHAT YOU’RE DOING AND LOOK AT HIM!!!
