On this week's "very special episode" of John and John (overdramatic title provided courtesy of John N.), the pair discuss the longest-running musical in Broadway history, "The Phantom of the Opera". The Johns talk about the cultural impact of the show, their thoughts on the (lack of) character arcs for most of the show's characters, the legacy of Andrew Lloyd Webber, and so much more.

Music by Andrew Lloyd Webber

Lyrics by Charles Hart and Richard Stilgoe

Book by Richard Stilgoe and Andrew Lloyd Webber

Based on the 1909 novel "The Phantom of the Opera" by Gaston Leroux
