The Phantom of the Opera August 19, 2007

Broadways longest running musical, Andrew Lloyd Webber's The Phantom of the Opera makes a triumphant return to Melbourne playing at the Princess Theatre from July 19. Having played to more than 80 million people in 124 cities around the world this full-scale production, directed by Harold Prince, stars the extraordinary Anthony Warlow in his career defining role.

It tells the story of a disfigured musical genius known only as 'The Phantom' who haunts the depths of the Paris Opera House, and who becomes obsessed by the talents and beauty of a young soprano - Christine.

Andrew Lloyd Webber’s sweepingly romantic score includes "Music of the Night" and "Think of Me", and is a breathtaking phenomenon not to be missed.
