We have seen other productions of Phantom of the Opera, but the original is always the original! So well done, and the theater and stage settings were just beautiful. Really glad we saw this when we were last in London.

Loved the venue and performance. Our fourth Phantom experience. Orchestra was excellent. All actors were top notch.Phantom was a better actor than singer as he struggled with low notes. Regardless, he did a great job

We saw Phantom at this theater about 15 years ago, and this performance was actually better, if that’s possible. Loved the sets, the performers. Will not see Phantom anywhere else.
