Phoenix Rising: From Heartache to Heroism

Chapter 437 Online Criticism

When 'Love Dream' was officially announced, it shocked everyone that Violeta would be cross-dressing as a man.

The news stirred up a lot of chatter online. Some people dismissed it as a gimmick to boost ticket sales and doubted the quality of the performance. The debate online before the show even began was louder than the excitement surrounding it.
