Starring Mary D’Arcy, who played opposite original Phantom Michael Crawford; Karen Culliver, who starred on Broadway; and Terri Bigg who starred both on Broadway and in the National Tour, these three Broadway stars provide a night of musical entertainment that focuses on their friendship and shared experience of playing Christine Daaè. These three women provide an evening of surprises and flirtatious fun with exquisite musicianship, humor and class. Think The Three Tenors, but cooler, funnier and they look a lot better in cocktail dresses.
