If you can't find one thing missing you're on crack. the score is hardly intact... I'll tell you exactly what's missing:
In the prologue Raoul's little song is missing the line: "She often spoke of you my friend... your velvet lining and your figurine of led..."
When the backdrop falls as Carlota is singing the chorus no longer sings "He's here: the Phantom of the Opera... he is with us... it's the ghost"
The beginning of "Little Lotte" is now just dialogue instead of being sung.
"The Phantom of the Opera" title song is missing an entire two verses i.e. "In all your fantasies, you always knew that man and mystery were both in you. And in this labyrinth etc. etc."
The Phantom's line at the end of "Prima Donna" is cut.
The "Gentleman if you would care to take your seats..." line is gone.
The "Entr'acte" is gone. I mean that's understandable, but still it's missing....
"The second notes scene is cut and the Phantom's note that he reads in that scene is put together with "Why so Silent" while "We have all Been Blind" and "Twisted Every Way" now take place much later.
Everything from "Raoul I'm frightened..." to "...singing songs in my head" is now spoken which is a travesty because that composition is quite beautiful...
Raoul's line at the end of "Twisted Every Way" is missing.
The chorus rehearsal for "Don Juan" is gone. i.e. "Those who
tangle with Don Juan"...
"Bravo Monsieur" is completely gone now replaced with the sword fight.
