Love Never Dies Script



Love Never Dies Script

Act 1

Phantom

Ten long years

Living a mere fasad of life

Ten long years

Wasting my time on smoke and noise

In my mind

I hear melodies pure and unearthly

But I find

I can’t give them a voice

Without you

My Christine

My Christine

Lost and gone

Lost and gone

The day starts

The day ends

Time crawls by

Night steals in

Pacing the floor

The moments creep

Yet I can’t bear to sleep

Till I hear you sing

And weeks pass

And months pass

Seasons fly

Still you don’t walk through my door

And in our haste

I count the silent days

Till I hear you sing once more

And sometimes

In darkness

I dream that you are there

But wake holding nothing

But the cold night air

And years come

And years go

Time runs dry

Still I ache deep in my core

My broken soul can’t be alive or whole

Till I hear you sing once more

And music

Your music

It teases at my ear

I turn and it fades away

And you’re not here

Let hopes pass

Let dreams pass

Let them die

Without you what are they for

I’ll always feel no more than halfway real

Till I hear you sing once more

For you

Dr. Dangle

Ladies and Gentlemen: Meg Giry

The oh la la girl

Antoinette Giry

Hurry up people; you have four more shows to do

No time to doddle

Meg

Mother did you see

Was it all all right

Mother was he watching

Was he keeping out of sight?

I was frightened half to death

And I had to catch my breath

As the lights began to dim

I was suddenly aware

Of a presence in the air

And I know it was him

Yes I know there were some snags

There were moments where it lags

Mother?

Mother, what’s wrong?

Antoinette Giry

A surprise announcement from Mister Oscar Hammerstein

Christine Daae left Paris this morning to sing at his new Manhattan opera house

Meg

Christine

Christine

Antoinette Giry

Christine

Ten long years

Not a sign

Not a word

Ten long years

Now she comes to our show

We must pray she keeps away

From us and from him

From his dreams and his goals

Meg

What do you mean?

Antoinette Giry

In Paris, when the mob surrounded him

Who was there?

We were there

Where was she

When the lawmen hounded him

Gone, long gone

We stayed on

Who concealed him safe away?

Smuggled him up to calay

Found a freighter

Out of France

Meg

I don’t see the problem

This is ancient history

Antoinette Giry

And who helped him buy his first sideshow

Meg

Mother, don’t

Antoinette Giry

And who plied the politicians

Meg

That’s all over now

Antoinette Giry

Charmed investors and the press

No, not her

And who stayed with him

Helped him and advised him

We stayed with him

Loved and idolized him

She betrayed him

Shunned him and despised him

She chose Raoul

Chose to make a new start

Chose beauty and youth over genius and art

Fixed her aim on wealth and fame

Fled from the master yet fled with his heart

Meg

It seems a hundred years ago

That you and I were both in show

Dancing side by side

Shy and starry eyed

The waves now bring you back to me

And any day we soon will be

Side by side again

Just the same as then

Both

Ah, Christine

Long ago

How I watched as you rose like a star

Ah, Christine

We have all traveled long, traveled far

Ah, Christine

Meg

You seem a thousand miles away

And yet your ship sets out today

Sails across the sea

Bringing you to me

And I will show you all the sights

Manhattan’s noise and Coney’s lights

Friends at last again

Just the same as then

Just like way back when

R1

Have the passengers disembarked yet?

R2

Yeah, they’re going through customs now.

L1

Hey, it’s Mrs. Aster

Aster

Hold her there Lucille

L2

Mrs. Aster, is that the latest Paris style

R2

Look, its colonel Vanderbilt

Hey, colonel, is Christine Daae still on board

Vanderbilt

I believe so, young man

Dude1

Hey, Christine, where are yuh? Yodeleh-hee-hu!

R1

Look, there she is

(Christine enters, followed by Raoul and Gustave)

Reporters, Ladies, Dudes

Christine, Christine, Christine,

Christine, Christine

Raoul

Her name

(Louder)

Her name is Madame De Chagny

Step aside

No pictures, do you hear

No pictures of the boy

R1

Christine, your first performance in years

Why aint you signing at the Met.

Raoul

The Vicomtess has been engaged by the well known Empresario, Mr. Oscar Hammerstein to open his new Manhattan opera house

R3

How’d he lure the great Christine Daae over here anyway? It’s the money, right? All that American mullah?

Raoul

My wife is an artist

Dude 2

And her art is paying off your gambling debts, that’s what they’re saying in France. Is it true you left your entire fortune on a roulette table in Monte Carlo?

R2

Hey, kid! How does it feel to have a famous mother? Your first time to America?

R1

It’s two weeks till the opera house opens. What are you gonna do?

Gustave

I want to go to Coney Island and lean to swim.

Mother, look.

Right over there

Across the square

That carriage

Dr. Dangle

Honored friends

Welcome to America

Dr. D, Ms. F, S

Take a seat

Rest your feet

Squelch

Honored friends

Mr. Hammerstein’s expecting you

All Three

Climb aboard

Lady, lords

Christine

Gustave

Raoul

Where is Hammerstein

I was assured he would meet us in person

Gustave

Here my dreams can wander free

Tell me what we’re going to see

Dr. D

This way, Prima Donna

Please leave, we’ll escort you

Squelch

Leave assured, Mr. Hammerstein

Sent us to transport you

Raoul

I give up

Take us to Hammerstein

Gustave

Mysteries and Melodies

Play inside my mind

Fairy tales and phantasies

Silently unwind

Dr. D and Squelch

Ask no questions, have no fears

Anything can happen here

Phantom

I am your angel of music

Come to me angel of music

Raoul

What a dreadful town

What a vulgar place

What a dreadful mistake to have come here

To be on display

In that shameless way

For the crude, common, lower class scum here

How could he dare to treat us so?

What a snub, at most

From our so called host

Did he think sending freaks would be funny?

Could the fool have thought?

That our pride was bought

By his filthy, American money

What a fast

What an outright slap in the face

It’s an utter disgrace

I’ve got a mind to pack and go

Never you mind the debts we owe

Gustave

Father, please, come play with me

Raoul

Gustave, enough

Must you play now?

Gustave

I think it’s beautiful

Raoul

Well it hurts my head

Christine

Please, let’s not fight, dear

I’m sure Mr. Hammerstein

Never intended a slight dear

Raoul

How dare he patronize us?

We should never have accepted

Christine

We need the money

That’s all

That’s why things haven’t been right, dear

Raoul

Why doesn’t it surprise me that I get the blame here?

Christine

Let’s leave tonight, dear

If it would serve to ease your troubled mind

Leave the hurt behind

Gustave

Father, dear, come over here

And look at what they gave to me

Wind it up and then you’ll see

Look, it plays a melody

Christine

Raoul!

Raoul

What’s this?

From Hammerstein

He wants to meet me in the hotel bar

Alone

Well, he may lack a courtesy

But he does have a certain subwafe

In choosing a business rondez vous

Christine

Raoul, please

Raoul

Please what

Christine

Nothing

(Raoul exits)

Gustave

Father never plays with me

Doesn’t he love me?

Christine

Oh, Darling

Love’s a curious thing

It often comes disguised

Look at love the wrong way

It goes unrecognized

So look with your heart

And not with your eyes

The heart understands

The heart doesn’t lie

Believe what it feels

And trust what it shows

Look with your heart

The heart always knows

Love’s not always beautiful

Not at the start

But open your arms

And close your eyes tight

Look with your heart

And when it finds love

Your heart will be right

Learn from someone who knows

Be sure you don’t forget

Love you misunderstand

Is love that you’ll regret

Gustave

Look with your heart

And not with your eyes

The heart can’t be fooled

Christine

The heart is too wise

Gustave

Forget what you think

Christine

Ignore what you hear

Both

Look with your heart

It always sees clear

Gustave

Love’s not always beautiful

Not at the start

Christine

But open your arms

And close your eyes tight

Look with your heart

And when it finds love

Your heart will be right

Off to bed now, Gustave

I’ll be right in

(Phantom enters dramatically)

(Christine faints in his arms and he carries her to a chair. She wakes up)

So it was all an empty lie

One final lie to fool us all

To make your death our story’s end

To put your life beyond recall

How dare you try and claim me now

Invade my life, ensnare my voice

Phantom

My Christine…

Christine

Your Christine?

I was yours one brief night long ago

Long ago

With a man that I no longer know

Phantom

Ah, Christine

You came and found where I hid

Don’t you deny that you did

That long ago night

Christine

That night

Phantom

Once there was a night

Beneath a moonless sky

Too dark to see a thing

Too dark to even try

Christine

I stole to your side

To tell you I must go

I couldn’t see your face

But sensed you even so

And I touched you

Phantom

And I felt you

Both

And I heard those ravishing refrains

Christine

The music of your pulse

Phantom

The singing in your veins

Christine

And I held you

Phantom

And I touched you

Christine

And embraced you

Phantom

And I felt you

Both

And with every breath and every sigh

Christine

I felt no longer scared

Phantom

I felt no longer shy

Both

At last our feelings bared

Beneath a moonless sky

Christine

And blind in the dark

As soul gazed into soul

I looked into your heart

And saw you pure and whole

Phantom

Cloaked under the night

With nothing to suppress

A woman and a man

No more and yet no less

And I kissed you

Christine

And caressed you

Both

And the world around us fell away

We said things in the dark

We never dared to say

Phantom

And I caught you

Christine

And I kissed you

Phantom

And I took you

Christine

And I begged you

Both

With a need too urgent to deny

And nothing mattered then

Except for you and I

Again and then again

Beneath a moonless sky

Phantom

And when it was done

Before the sun could rise

Ashamed of what I was

Afraid to see your eyes

I stood while you slept

And whispered a goodbye

And slipped into the dark

Beneath a moonless sky

Christine

And I loved you

Yes, I loved you

I’d have followed anywhere you led

I woke to swear my love

And found you gone instead

Phantom

And I loved you

Christine

Oh, I loved you

Phantom

And I left you

Christine

How I loved you

Phantom

And I had to

Both of us knew why

Christine

We both knew why

Both

And yet I won’t regret

From now until I die

The night I can’t forget

Beneath a moonless sky

Phantom

And now

Christine

How can you talk of now

For us

There is no now

Once upon another time

Our story had only begun

You chose to turn the page

And I made choices too

Once upon that other time

We did what we thought must be done

And now we had no choice

We did what we must do

We love, we live

We give what we can give

And take what little we deserve

Phantom

Once upon another time

I knew how our story would end

And maybe I was wrong

But now the moment’s gone

Were it still that other time

I’d make time itself somehow bend

But now I’m not that strong

And time keeps moving on

Both

We love, we live

We give what we can give

And take what little we deserve

We love, we live

We give what we can give

And take what little we deserve

Once upon another time

Phantom

Ten long years of yearning

Years of dreaming of this moment

When that miracle

That peerless instrument

Plays for me just fleetingly

Lays the ghost which tortures me

Tortures me

Ah, Christine

I know what Hammerstein is paying you

I’ll give you double for just one night’s work

Here, in my opera house

Christine

No

Phantom

Just one night, Christine

One song, that’s all I ask

Christine

Why should I

For ten years you let me believe you were dead

And now you lure us here and expect me to do your bidding

Submit to you again

I won’t do it

I owe you nothing

Gustave

Mother, please, I’m scared

What a dream

An awful dream

Someone strange and mad

Seizing me and drowning me

Christine

Oh, Shhh

Gustave, it’s alright, Darling

Come and meet a friend of mine

Phantom

Welcome to my world, young friend

Gustave

Your world? Where are we?

Phantom

We’re in Phantasma, little Vicomte

A world of fantasy

Where illusion is king

Tell me were you want to go

Tell me what you want to see

Madame, please, I insist

Gustave

Could you show me, if you please?

All Phantasma’s mysteries

All that’s wild and strange and dark

In the shadows of the park

Phantom

You shall see it all tomorrow

In fact, I myself shall show you

I promise

Christine

Back to bed, Gustave

Gustave

Why does he wear a mask, mother?

Is he a magician?

Christine

Yes, darling. In his way

Phantom

What a child

Full of life

Full of you

My Christine

Help me through this sadness

Do this kindness for your mentor

Or your prodigy

That prefect specimen

May disappear on Coney Island

Vanish here, on Coney Island

Ah, Christine

Christine

What are you saying?

How could you?

After all that we’ve been

Who are you?

Phantom

I am your angel of music

I am dying, Christine

Suffocating, here in the dark

Give me breath, give me life

Sing for me

Or I will take from you all you have ever loved

Christine

No, no you can’t

Phantom

Oh, but I can.

A man as hideous as this, believe me, is capable of anything

Christine

And what am I to sing

Phantom

One song, composed by me

Christine

And then, we’re free to go

Phantom

And will, of course, receive a princely fee

Is it on

With the show

Does he stay?

Does he go?

(Phantom exits)

(Raoul Enters)

Raoul

He’s nowhere to be seen

Christine

Who?

Raoul

Hammerstein. What the devil is going on here?

Christine

Darling, things have changed.

Meg and Dancers

Bathing beauty, on the beach

See her practically glow

Taking a sunnin’

See all the boys are running

Rollin’ in clover

And getting’ tan all over

Wearing a smile

And giving Coney Island

A bathing beaut.

Of the show

Bathing beauty say hello

Antoinette

Gentlemen, Gentlemen, you must take care

Go spend some time working with Meg

Ladies, take 5

Christine

Gustave, slow down, there are people trying to work

Gustave

But I want to find Mister Y. and see the Island

Christine

I’m sure he’ll send for you when he’s ready

Meg

Heaven help me, could it be

No it couldn’t possibly

Christine

Sorry, do I-

Meg

Yes, I think you

Christine

Have we-

Meg

Go on, take a guess

Christine

Wait, it can’t be. Is it?

Meg

Yes!

Christine

Oh, my god. I can’t believe it’s you.

Meg

Look at you, Christine, regal as a queen and beautiful

Christine

Meg and you as well, I could hardly tell it’s you.

Both

My dear old friend

Can’t believe you’re here, old friend

After all this time

Meg

Christine, you came

You look sublime

Christine

You look the same

Both

My dear old friend

Never thought we’d meet old friend

Christine

What of your career

Meg

Everything’s great

Both

And isn’t fate a splendid thing

Christine

It brought me here

Meg

To see the sights

Christine

And sing

Antoinette

You

Raoul

My god, it’s you

Antoinette

It can’t be true

Raoul

Is this a dream?

It’s been ten years

Antoinette

What brings you here?

Raoul

What do you think?

Christine

She’s here to sing

Antoinette

I read the news

For Hammerstein?

Raoul

No, plans have changed

He’s been outbid

Antoinette

Outbid by whom?

Raoul

The contract’s here

It’s rather strange

Meg

Sorry did I hear you right

Here to sing

Christine

Tomorrow night

Meg

That seems odd, there must be some mistake

That’s the leading lady’s slot

I’ve been booked

Christine

Oh, surely not

Meg

This was meant to be my luck break

Christine

Look, I’ll hardly sing,

Just one little thing

An Aria

Meg

Christine it’s a thrill

Just to share the bill with you

Meg and Antoinette

My dear, old friend

It’s becoming clear, old friend

Someone’s overlooked

His leading act

Raoul

Well double booked, to be exact

Now, my old friend

Can you clarify, old friend

This “Mister Y”

With whom we signed

Who hides behind the souveniers

Antoinette

You haven’t guessed

Raoul

I’ve no idea

Antoinette

It’s him

Raoul

Him

You work for him

Antoinette

Now you do to

Raoul

But my poor wife

We thought him dead

She’d be appalled

Antoinette

Unless she knew

Christine

Darling, please, are you alright

Raoul

Tell me now. This music, who was its creator

Christine

Darling, please, don’t squeeze so tight

Raoul

Something’s going on here

I’ll deal with you later

Meg

What’s this about

Antoinette

I wish I knew

All except Christine

The truth will out

Before we’re through

All

My dear old friend

Can’t believe you’re here old friend

Antoinette

My dear Christine

Meg

My dear Vicomte

Christine

What does this mean?

Raoul

What does he want?

All

My grand old friend

I don’t understand, old friend

Giries

Maybe it’s a joke

De Chagnys

Some silly game

All

And what his aim

Is in the end

I couldn’t claim to comprehend

Old friend

Meg

It isn’t fair

Antoinette

We need to think

Christine

I need some air

Raoul

I need a drink

All

My poor old friend

Isn’t this a bore, old friend

Christine

I’m still amazed

Meg

Im still confused

Antoinette

I’m feeling dazed

Raoul

I’m feeling used

All

And yet, old friends

Lets not get upset old friends

Antoinette

We can sort this out

Raoul

And so we will

Meg

Without a doubt

All

Because we’re still such grand old friends

Such devoted and old friends

Back again at last

When everyone

Is doing great

Won’t this be fun

With two old friends

Trustable and true old friends

Antoinette

Let us raise a glass

Christine

To times gone by

Raoul

To Mister Y.

All

And happy ends

To such sincere

And very dear old friends

Old friends.

Raoul

No offense, but I need something stronger

Madame, I shall see you both at th concert

Where I am sure you shall both surpass yourselves

Christine

Raoul, wait, I can explain

I’m sorry

Meg, I wonder, would you mind

My son, Gustave

Dr. D

Come along and follow us

Ms. F

Come and follow faster

Sqelch

Come along and follow us

All three

Come and meet the master

Hurry up and follow us

Hurry if you care to

Soon the dark will swallow us

Follow if you dare to

Gustave

What is this place?

Phantom

This is my relm

Illusion’s domain

Where music

And beauty

And artifice reign

One moment, little Vicomte

While I prepare today’s adventure

Gustave

May I?

Phantom

Does the young Vicomte play

What’s this

Gustave

Just a song in my head

Phantom

Go on

Gustave

I think it’s beautiful

So very beautiful

Hear how the notes seem to float

Hear how they all die and fall

Just like the night

It’s beautiful

Phantom

This boy

Gustave

So very beautiful

Phantom

This music

Gustave

Music that comes uncontrolled

Phantom

He plays like me

Gustave

Haunting and lovely and bold

Phantom

He’s just ten years old

Ten years old

My god

My god

Come with me

I want to show to something

_____________________________________________________________

Phantom

Have you ever yearned to go

Past the point you think you know

Been enthralled to the call

Of the beauty underneath

Have you let it dreaw you in

Past the place where dreams begin

Felt the full, breathless pull

Of the beauty underneath

When the dark unfolds its wings

Don’t you sense the strangest things?

Things no one would ever guess

Things mere words cannot express

Gustave

Yes

Phantom

Do you fing yourself beguiled

By the dangerous and wild

Do you feed on the need

For the beauty underneath

Have you felt your senses surge

And surrendered to the urge

And been hooked as you looked

At the beauty underneath

When you stare behind the night

Can you glimse its primal might

Might you hunger to posess

Hunger that you can’t repress

Gustave

Yes

It seems so beautiful

So strange and beautiful

Everything’s just as you say

Phantom

And he’s so beautiful

Perhaps too beautiful

What I suspect cannot be

And yet, somehow we both see

The very same way

Gustave

Is there music in your head

Have you followed where it led

And been graced with a taste

Of the beauty underneath

Does it fill your every sense

Is it terribly intense

Tell me you need it to

Need the beauty

Both

When it lifts its voice and sings

Don’t you feel amazing things

Things you know you can’t confess

Things you thirst for nonetheless

Gustave

It’s all so beautiful

Phantom

Can it be

Gustave

Almost too beautiful

Both

Do you see what I see

Phantom

To him it’s beautiful

My world is beautiful

Gustave

How can this be what it seems

Both

All of my most secret dreams

Somehow set free

Phantom

You can feel it

Gustave

Yes

Phantom

Come closer

Gustave

Yes

Phantom

You’ve no fear of the beauty underneath

Gustave

*Vocalizing*

Phantom

You can face it

Gustave

Yes

Phantom

You can take it

Gustave

Yes

Phantom (Gustave)

You see through to the beauty underneath

To the splendor

(and the splendor)

And the glory

(and the glory)

To the truth of the beauty underneath

(Beauty underneath)

You’ll accept it

Gustave

Yes

Phantom

You’ll embrace it

Gustave

Yes

Phantom (Gustave)

Let me show you the beauty underneath

To the splendor

(and the splendor)

And the glory

(and the glory)

To the truth of the beauty underneath

(beauty underneath)

You’ll accept it

Gustave

Yes

Phantom

You’ll embrace it

Gustave

Yes

Phantom

Let me show you the beauty underneath

Gustave

*Screams*

Christine

Gustave, it’s alright

It’s me

Don’t be frightened

Phantom

How could you think I wouldn’t guess

How could yo think I wouln’t know

Do you have something to confess

I want the truth right now if so

Christine

Gustave, I want you to go with miss giry back to the hotel

Meg, please

Once upon another time

You loved me and left me alone

But that’s not all you did

You left me with a son

Ever since that other time

I wished you could somehow have known

I kept the secret hid

A secret my marriage forbid

What else could I have done

Just love

Phantom

Our son?!

Christine

Just live

Pahntom

My son?!

Christine

Just give what I could give

And take what little I deserve

Phantom

Forgive me

He sees me and shuns me

As you did once

Take him now

Take him and go

Go now

Be free

But swear one thing to me

He will never ever know

Christine

I swear it, believe me

You know you have my word

And I swear your music won’t remain unheard

This music

Your music

Will live agin

One last time

Just as I soar

Both

And so through song

We will once more be one

Phantom

When I wear you sing

Christine

Once more

Phantom

From out of ugliness

Such light

From out of darkness

Such a flame

In him my wrongness is made right

And yet he loathes me just the same

So let him shun me in disqust

Let him flee this cursed face

If I must hide from him I must

Yet he shall be my saving grace

Poor Christine

My Christine

If it’s true he’s my reason to live

Then Christine

Then our boy shall have all I can give

All I create on this earth

All that I’ll never be worth

All shall be his

Antoinette

All shall be his

Ten long years and he casts us aside

Ten whole years this is how we’re repaid

Ten dark years of toil and tears

Now all that we’ve worked for will go to that child

All our hopes were at last in our grasp

All our dreams and the plans that we laid

Everything is vanishing

And we get discarded

Rejected

Reviled

All of the bonds in between us now torn

All of the love that we gave him foresworn

All would be ours

If that bastard had never been born
