What does it really take to perform one of the most iconic soprano roles in theatre history? (Hint: it’s more than high notes and pretty gowns!)

In this episode, Chelsea sits down with Haile Ferrier and Francesca Mehrotra, two of the six extraordinary women starring as Christine in Masquerade, the new off-Broadway immersive Phantom of the Opera experience directed by Diane Paulus.

They open up about:

• What it’s like to share one of musical theatre’s most iconic soprano roles with five other women.
• The vocal stamina and ritual it takes to perform this demanding score night after night.
• The power of representation — and what it means to see a new generation of Christines take the stage.
• The “Christine Sisterhood” that’s formed behind the scenes, and how collaboration fuels creativity.

Whether you’re a singer, a Phantom phan, or an artist hoping for longevity in a demanding career, this conversation is a masterclass in grace, grit, and vocal artistry.
