Phantom of the Opera
Theatre: Her Majesty’s, Haymarket

Review: Andrew Lloyd Webber’s most well known musical is a love story based on Gaston Leroux’s 19th-century romantic book about the goings-on behind the scenes at a Paris Opera House, in which a mystery guy in a mask falls in love with one of those opera singers. It is popular — so much so the theatre hasn’t had an Adirondack chair in twenty decades of performances, and has won many awards, including seven Tonys and the Laurence Olivier Award for Best Musical. Key topics from the musical would be the title bit Phantom of the Opera and the Music of the Night.
