Since The Phantom of the Opera premiered in 1986, the musical continues to wow West End audiences with its tale of dark romance, jealousy and murder. The production features stunning sets, glittering gowns and the most beautiful chandelier you’ve ever seen in a theatre.

Listen to Andrew Lloyd Webber’s stunning Phantom score, including “All I Ask,” “Think of Me,” and “Masquerade,” performed by a 14-piece orchestra. London Theatre raved about the classic, saying “there's no question that it's still wild, it's still joyous, and it deserves its place as the pride of the West End.”

Set in the Opéra Populaire, Christine Daaé is a young singer who is suddenly thrust into the spotlight of a troubled production. Her stunning voice is the result of her secretive teacher, the mysterious Phantom, who lives deep beneath the building. As Christine takes on the lead role in the opera, the Phantom begins to reveal himself. The Phantom's passion for her puts Christine, and her fiancée Raoul, in grave danger.

What to Watch For:

• 6,000 beads, with 35 beads to an individual string, make up the iconic chandelier featured in The Phantom of the Opera. At a whopping three metres wide, and with a weight of one ton, it’s not exactly one for your living room.
• It takes 130 people to put on a performance of The Phantom of the Opera in London. That includes the cast, creatives and backstage crew. Included in this team are 14 dressers who manage the 230 costumes in the show. They're in charge of everything from ballet shoes to ballgowns.
• Creating the eerie effects in the Phantom's lair in The Phantom of the Opera requires a lot of effort. Each performance uses 50 kg of dry ice and 10 fog and smoke machines to capture the haunting atmosphere.
