From: Photo Flash: Miss America Night at Vegas 'PHANTOM'

On Monday evening The 52 Miss America Pageant Contestants enjoyed 'The Music of the Night' at Phantom - The Las Vegas Spectacular at The Venetian Resort-Hotel-Casino. After the performance they met lead cast members Andrew Ragone (Raoul), Kristi Holden (Christine) and Tony-Award Winner Anthony Crivello (The Phantom) and took photos inside the famed Phantom Theatre. The contestants, many of them performers themselves for the talent segment of the pageant, were enthralled by the production. This lavish production of The Phantom of the Opera thrills audiences eight times a week at The Venetian. From the moment you enter the magnificent custom-built theatre you are immersed in the storied Paris Opera House and become part of The Phantom's world. Featuring every beloved Andrew Lloyd Webber song from the original, spectacular sets, new effects, and a breathtaking chandelier experience, Phantom is an only-in-Vegas experience.
