About The Phantom of the Opera

The Phantom of the Opera at 57 Haymarket, London, brings Andrew Lloyd Webber’s musical to the stage with a story set beneath the Paris Opera House. The show follows the Phantom’s hidden life, his feelings for Christine Daaé, and the tragic love story that unfolds around them.

First opening at His Majesty’s Theatre on Thursday 9 October 1986 with Michael Crawford and Sarah Brightman in the leading roles, the musical has since become one of the highest-grossing musicals of all time. It has won 70 major theatre awards and has been seen by over 140 million people worldwide.

Andrew Lloyd Webber’s score is paired with detailed scenery and special effects, creating a production built around the original story and its central characters.

Duration: 2 hours and 30 minutes including one interval.
