3.8 years, but it is still more than enough opera-related phantasms.

Yes, if that's all he does 24 his a day, 365 days a year. Considering he must sleep and eat and poop, amongst other things, let's just say he only spends 8 hours a day watching. Then it's over 11 years of nothing but watching during every waking hour not devoted to necessities.

But what if he works a normal 40 hour a week job? Let's say he watches it once a day on weekdays and 3 times a day on weekends. That's 11 times a week. At that rate, he's basically doing nothing but that and work for 22 years.

I guess he could watch it once a day and it would only take 36ish years.

Edit: Relooking at the picture, it appears watching it may actually be his job. Let's say he watches it 3 times a day but only on weekdays. That's roughly 15 times a week, though he'd probably have vacations and holidays. We'll make a rough estimate of 15-20 years and call it good.

Are you sure it's his job and he is not in some kind of high-tech correctional facility suffering a punishment? A bit like a combination of a prison, a musical show, and "I Have No Mouth, and I Must Scream" dystopia?

If he did the mixing for the broadway show it had a run of 13925 shows from 1986 to 2020. This guy basically worked his his entire career with one show.

The only reason he is smiling is that he's getting older and he knows this all will soon be over...

If it's the Royal Albert Hall version, I'll give him a run for his money. You know what I'm actually gonna go watch that again rn. Perhaps I may even frighten away the ghosts of so many years ago with a little... ILLUMINATION.

Looks like he’s their lighting engineer.

I should have read the comments before I did all the math.

It has good songs. I’ve probably listened to Chess a few thousand times.

Still asks who the main character is

Has seen it for 13,000 times, but still gets disappointed when the comic strip character The Phantom does not make an appearance.

Took my then gf to see Phantom on Broadway. Man, that was a snoozefest. Glad I caught Les Mis before it left. THAT was worth it. Tina is up next.
