About The Phantom of the Opera

The Phantom of the Opera is Andrew Lloyd Webber’s musical, set far beneath the Paris Opera House, where the Phantom lives in shadow and his love for Christine Daaé drives the story. The production combines the score with scenery and special effects to bring this tragic love story to the stage.

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

Running time: 2 hours and 30 minutes including one interval. Performance times: Monday to Friday 7.30pm; Saturday 2.30pm and 7.30pm.
