    Those were brilliant and unforgettable days.
    And I’m so happy to hear that Phantom reopened finally.
    I’m looking forward to the day when I will be able to watch this show again in Her Majesty’s Theatre.

    The acting, singing, music all top class.
    The applause at the end with a standing ovation lasted for ages and when the phantom (Killian) took a bow it was off the scale. I'm welling up now with emotion.
    All the staff at her majesty's theatre were polite, classy and helpful, the door staff , bar staff, Ice cream seller, gifts seller, everyone.

      Everyone should be thanked except for Cameron. He made ridiculous changes to the Chandelier, procenium, lyrics, and made the orchestra insanley smaller! Remember the iconic angel that used to be at the top of the procenium? Well guess what, thats gone! The chandelier is also different. He took Maria's original design's and threw them away. The cast is amazing, but these changes suck!

    I would die if I got to stand next to Andrew Lloyd Webber. This is my dream! I hope to be up there someday. I’m so glad that they have Lucy St. Louis and all of these amazing actors and singers performing it now for people. They definitely set the bar high. I hope to at least get close to this. This is definitely a dream come true for her. I love hearing her experience and other Christine’s who started out like me, a girl with a dream. It gives me hope and faith that someday, that could possibly be me. People like Lucy St. Louis and Sierra Boggess make me want to work even harder because they help me to see what it takes to do this role, a role I have been wanting to do for since I was four years old. Amazing job to everyone in the cast and crew. I wish I could have seen it with my own eyes but even small clips like this never fail to amaze me. Sending love and support to all Broadway actors and actresses. 🖤🥀

      It’s an absolute disgrace, but sadly the way things have been going in west end pits for years (less so on Broadway I believe?). Billionaire producers that only really care about their bottom line and not about their cast/creatives (I have seen this from the inside for 30 years). A recent MD Symposium featuring many of the worlds top MDs and supervisors all said the same (so it’s not just me). That includes those responsible for the biggest shows of the past 40-50 years on stage and on film/audio.

    Interesting isn't it how the lead role for the 'best show in the west end' feels the need to point out the amount of melanin present in her skin: if you were the best voice at audition it shouldn't matter should it? Unless of course there is some other agenda here?
    A new version of a franchise (that has grossed more cash than star wars), has deviated. No longer needing to be historically accurate manipulating certain characters for no apparent reason.
    If this is an effort to update and 'woke out' the whole show perhaps the phantoms disfigurement (his disability; which i hasten to add is the root for his exile and apparent madness) should be revealed. Should a modern production not also incorporate a body positive attitude? and if so why is it hiding a scar?
    Cameron Mackintosh are clearly struggling for cash; laying off all their staff during lockdown. The reduction in orchestra was a mistake. Clearly short of quality staff in the make up department too; there are a lot of very good MUA out there who can blend in a bald cap better than this.
    brilliant show, but not the same.
