This moment marks a turning point in the narrative, as Christine will remain scarred by the horrifying face she has seen. The removal of masks occurs at crucial moments in the narrative on one such occasion, overwhelmed by the beauty of the Phantom’s singing, Christine spontaneously decides to disobey Erik’s orders and remove his mask, which causes Erik fear, pain, and anger.
Although the mask gives Erik some control over his life, as it allows him to decide when to reveal his real face, it also signals that he has no control over one crucial factor: other people’s reactions.
