I love beautiful things. That’s true for any form of creation – art or not, living or otherwise. One of my favorites are musicals – be it Broadway, the West End or here in Solaire. I have been a fan ever since I slept my way through half of Les Miserables in NY in 2007. Despite missing a part of it, a certain magic have stayed with me long after watching it. I guess this magic is the reason the classics remain in theatres even after so many decades of non-stop performances.

One can just imagine my surprise and excitement when Meg and her family told me that the theme of her 18th birthday celebration was the Phantom of the Opera. With the way things are done in events nowadays, how more capable set-ups are becoming, I knew it’s something to look forward to.

And worthy to look forward to it was. In fact, if it’s just me, I’d say it is worthy of a Tony Award. The moment you enter the ballroom, gold statues, red roses, and glistening chandeliers in the ceiling will meet you. It’s as if you entered Her Majesty’s Theatre in London where the beautifully acclaimed broadway musical is performed. From the music to the intricate details, every corner of the room sang Phantom of the Opera.

It was a gala night that spelled out who Meg is as well – talented, beautiful and pleasing in every way. Just like Christine of the play, who was given the chance to perform, to shine and to be the star, Meg became the leading lady in her very own broadway show. This unique evening truly belonged to her. Enjoy the photos.
