The Terezin concentration camp was established by the Nazis in an 18th century fortress in Czechoslovakia on November 24, 1941. More than 150,000 Jews passed through the camp during its four-year existence, which was used as a holding area for eventual murder in Auschwitz. By 1943, rumors began circulating in the international community that the Nazis were exterminating Jews in gas chambers, and that the conditions of the concentration camps did not permit survival. The Nazis rebuilt parts of this camp to serve as a \"showpiece\" for propaganda purposes. Flowers were planted there. Shops, schools, and a cafe were built. When an investigating commission of the International Red Cross came to visit, they did not see a typical concentration camp. In July 1944 the Nazis made a documentary propaganda film about life in this camp. After the movie was completed, most of the Jewish \"actors\" were shipped to their death at Auschwitz.

今年三月初的一个美好夜晚，我和我的家人到上海大剧院（Shanghai Grand Theater）看著名的音乐剧（musical）《剧院魅影》（#The Phantom of the Opera#）。爱情是该剧的主 题, 然而它说的却是一场三角恋爱的故事（a love triangle）。一位名叫克里斯汀（Christine）的年轻的女高音歌唱家引起一个经常戴着面具出没于（haunt）巴黎歌剧院的幽灵的注意，他爱上了她。可是，克里斯汀的一位从前童年的朋友，如今是一位年轻而
又富有的美男子也爱上了她。剧情围绕他们三人展开。他们的演唱和演技都非常好，他们演出时充满情感，同时，合唱部分也很和谐。自始至终，演出就像放在我们面前的佳肴，那绝对是一种享受。演出在观众雷鸣般的掌声中结束。
该音乐剧于1986年首次上演，其原创人员（creative team）几乎一夜成名。迄今该剧已在全球22个国家对一亿多人演出过。这确实是一次巨大的胜利。
One beautiful evening in early March this year my family and I went to see the famous musical \"The Phantom of the Opera\" at the Shanghai Grand Theater. Love is its theme; yet love in a love triangle. A young soprano named Christine attracts the attention of the phantom who, always wearing a mask, haunts the Paris Opera House, and he falls in love with her. However, Christine's former childhood friend, now a handsome, wealthy young man, loves her, too. The plot unfolds around the three of them. The singing and acting were superb; all performed with passion while the chorus parts were done perfectly in tune. From beginning to end the performance was like a delicious banquet spread out / delicious food put in front of us. It was sheer joy, ending amid the thunderous applause of the audience. This musical was first staged in 1986 and its creative team made a name for itself almost overnight. It has so far played to over 100 million people in 22 countries around the world, a tremendous triumph indeed.
