Line 19: A play called Don Juan (Don Giovanni Tenorio, ossia Il Disoluto) was written in 1736 by Carlo Goldoni, famous Italian comic playwright. In the novel [[The Phantom of the Opera]], the name of the opera written by the Phantom is "Don Juan Triumphant." Gaston Leroux named the opera that Erik, the Phantom, was writing "Don Juan Triumphant." Andrew Lloyd Webber further used this by writing a song from this opera, "The Point of No Return." It is supposed to be written especially for Christine. The famous Romantic [[Lord Byron]] wrote an epic version of Don Juan that is considered to be his masterpiece. It was left unfinished upon his death, but portrays Don Juan as the innocent victim of a repressive Catholic upbringing who stumbles into akward situations with women and, later, their husbands and fathers.
