Phantom of the Opera

Just back from the Morton H. Meyerson Symphony Center in downtown Dallas, where we saw the original 1925 silent movie of the Phantom of the Orchestra accompanied by the Dallas Symphony Orchestra playing the score of the movie. The theatre organ was used as part of the orchestra. The performance was excellent, really atmospheric, the movie really good, I preferred it to the modern version which I saw recently (and which I also enjoyed).

The theatre was an amazing place, surrounded by the tall buildings of Dallas. We had dinner in the theatre restaurant beforehand which was nice, but didn't have a great veggie selection, but then I'm used to that here.
