Andrew Lloyd Webber’s masterpiece unfolds beneath the opulent arches of a reimagined Paris Opera House, from the Phantom’s haunting romance to the chandelier’s dramatic descent. Let the sweeping score and soaring vocals carry you through a tale of beauty, longing and mystery. After the final ovation, your coach returns you to the hotel, the West End’s neon still flickering in your mind’s eye.
