In 2023, Broadway’s longest-running show, The Phantom of the Opera, closed for good. The final performance was mourned by theatre fans everywhere, but few were more affected than the people behind the curtain.

“My Phantom Memory” tells the story of Scott Mikita, a swing actor who performed in the show for over twenty years. As dressing rooms empty and the final performances draw near, anxious questions arise: What’s going to happen to all this? What did this all mean? After 20 years in the same gig, what is next for me?

An intimate, immersive portrait of the actor’s life from filmmaker Mark Blumberg and the folks at Silver Sound.
