SCENE 3

AT THE THEATER

At night, the Raoul family came to the theater to watch Meg's performance. They were accompanied by Andre and Firmin. Madame Giry was busy in the back stage.

"It's not opera tonight. It's a show." Andre explained to Raoul and Christine after they settled in a box.

Although Raoul and Christine were excited that they would see Meg in a moment, they couldn't help looking up and down the theater, as always, for fear of Phantom.

The show soon started. The first performance was "Bathing beauty". As soon as Meg led a line of dancers onto the stage, Christine couldn't hold her excitement, "Wow! Meg is a grown beauty now!"

Christine was fully attracted by Meg's performing. She began to shake her shoulders, in sync with Meg. Raoul took a look at her. Christine smiled and stopped shaking.

Once the performance ended, they all applauded. Raoul asked Christine, "My dear Vicontese, you are looking forward to performing in Meg's bathing suit, right?"

Christine smiled naughtily, "Of course!"

They all laughed and went backstage to see Meg.

Meg noticed Christine instantly, "Heaven help me, could it be…?"

"Meg!" Christine shouted.

They held each other's hands and started chirming excitedly.

"Look at you, Christine. Regal as a queen, and beautiful!" Meg claimed.

"Meg, and you as well!" Christine replied. "Look at you, a star! You can still sing and dance as you wish."

"Then sing and dance with me… ONCE AGAIN!" Meg responded gleefully.
