The Phantom Saga concludes on Recovered

At last, the Phantom Saga arrives at the most influential and successful adaptation of Gaston Leroux's doomed romance horror novel... Andrew Lloyd Webber. Dan and Keith are joined by musical theatre aficionado Colleen Bishop to break down Webber's adaptation of the story, and what happened when Joel Schumacher was tasked with bringing it to the big screen. But wait, there's more! Decades later, in place of seeing a therapist, Webber chose to work through some issues by writing a bizarre sequel where the Phantom runs a burlesque show, Raoul is a drunken gambler, and Christine was a fool for ever choosing the pretty rich guy over the soulful artist, Andy's doing fine you guys, he's doing SO fine. What makes the musical a classic? How did it survive its film adaptation? And how off the rails does Love Never Dies get? All this and more as the Phantom saga concludes!
