It’s from the Phantom! In the manager’s office. Carlotta and her husband, Alain Cholet, will now be in charge. He’s just been fired as the opera manager. Their excitement is undercut by Gerard Carriere’s startling announcement. The opera company and various first-nighters are Dressing For The Night. The sight causes Buquet to scream out in horror.

He sees the Phantom just as he’s changing masks. To the depths of the Opera House and the Phantom’s lair: we’ve just heard Christine singing “Paris is the sun” but, to the Phantom, Paris Is A Tomb.

But stage hands have told him he shouldn’t go down there! She insists. Inside the Opera House, Carlotta, an imperious diva, orders her costume man, Joseph Buquet, to go down below. It’s like a dream come true! The set changes.

She stares at the card in amazement, then at the magnificent Opera House looming behind her. If she will show this card to Gerard Carriere, the Opera House manager, she will receive lessons. He tells her that her voice may be lovely but, for opera, it will need training. Among those her voice and beauty attract is the roguishly handsome Count de Chandon. As she sings, she hands sheet music to people nearby. Christine Daee, a seller of songs, enters singing Mélodie de Paris.
