    Far beneath the majesty and splendour of the Paris Opera House, hides the Phantom in a shadowy existence. Shamed by his physical appearance and feared by all, the love he holds for his beautiful protégée Christine Daaé is so strong that even her heart cannot resist.
    The musical opened at Her Majesty’s Theatre on 9 October 1986 with Michael Crawford and Sarah Brightman in the leading roles, and there have been dozens of productions worldwide since then. Now in its 30th record-breaking year, The Phantom of the Opera continues to captivate audiences at Her Majesty’s Theatre in London’s West End, after more than 11,000 performances.
    Andrew Lloyd Webber’s mesmerizing score along with jaw-dropping scenery and breathtaking special effects, magically combine to bring this tragic love story to life each night.

    I watched Phantom of the Opera on Broadway with my family for the first time on a Sunday. I couldn’t say a word after the performance... the songs were a masterpiece, and that Emilia did an awesome job as Christine Daae. I would recommend my friends to go see this. 😁

      If you're talking about the descent sequence in the title song, it's done with body doubles. The vocals for the entire second verse, if I understand correctly, are actually pre-recorded. The lead actors are getting into place during that part while the doubles are lip-syncing to the leads' pre-recorded voices. Christine's final high note in the title song is also pre-recorded, I think, as it's a ridiculously high note for even most professional sopranos to hit well on a daily basis. It may be used intermittently based on the singer's voice on any given day, though.

    Hey people! I'm doing some research and I'd be eternally grateful to anyone who can help.
    I saw Phantom when I was a preteen, on what was either the 16th or 17th of June 2014, in London. It made an impression on me that I haven't shaken yet. Truly magical, and for an 11-year-old, terrifying.
    I want to figure out who was playing Phantom that night so I can try to find a video or recording of their performance and see how differently I may perceive it, and to relive the memory.
    Does anyone know where I could find those records?

      @andkyrmar Před 2 lety +6

      Phantom masks have evolved and often redesigned for each new principal phantom. Since the reopening of both the London and NYC after covid lockdowns, there have been a number of lyrical, directional and blocking adjustments. The make up on the phantom on both sides of the Atlantic has also altered. It’s still similar to the original Chris Tucker design but with modifications.

      Caso não tenha visto o show, o personagem do fantasma é um visionário, além de marginalizado, então sim, obviamente um progressista. O show está a mais de 30 anos em cartaz. Como vc acha que isso seria possível sem acompanhar o progresso? Ou o seu comentário é só uma fala racista?

      @@et7281 I agree it really shouldn't matter. In my opinion, actors should be free to inhabit any role that their talent allows them to perform irrespective of gender, race, sexual orientation, etc. I do find that there is a double standard that I find problematic. There seems to be a lot of outrage for actors that are not authentically cast in terms of the aforementioned, except when a POC takes on a white person role. Christine was the daughter of a Swedish violinist so by that standard she should be white. However, I'm excited for the opportunity that diverse casting provides for such talent to shine. I just wish such grace were extended to all other actors because their job is quite literally to take on the character of another, fictional or real. I am also conflicted about whether this can become a subtle way of rewriting history because POC did not hold these positions during that time and place. As diverse casting becomes more commonplace, will people in time start to believe this to be a historically accurate representation? That worries me given the blatant move to suppress history as we are seeing take hold throughout our country. Emilie has an amazing voice and I will be thrilled to see her perform. Both leads have spectacular voices. Phantom is my favorite play so I've seen many productions. The last time I was this excited with the singing was when Sarah Brightman and Michael Crawford were in the cast.

      @@Mdelgado5498 ikr, she is a brilliant christine.
      If we are going to cast a christine that is 100% accurate to the book. Then she should be blonde. But in most theater versions she is brunette.
      So I don't see why people get mad when they change skin color, but not hair color. I feel like they will only be happy as long as it is a white woman. Thats super sad.
