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.
35 years and still going strong! This fantastic musical will still be stunning audiences in another 35 years. Keep up the good work all involved.
POTO never gets old.
How time flies especially for the chandelier 🤣
well..
@@TotalBananewhy didn’t it??
@@TotalBananeah ok, so it aged well in terms of this being a video about London but it’s leaving New York broadway? That’s mad!
Shouldn't have cut down the size of the orchestra. Horrible decision.
I do like the new filmed trailer for The Phantom of the Opera at Her Majesty's Theatre in London and I will be seeing it again in 2022
Your always welcome 🙂
Basically the only show that hasn't released a full pro-shot of the whole thing. Really annoying when they have all of these cinematically filmed teasers.
The 25th anniversary is out there. Not a 100% replica, but the calibre of that cast makes up for everything else.
@@blissinchains Why would anybody choose to listen to Ramin's annoying nasally voice?
@@Caannnnoonn So you prefer a guy who sounds like a member of Westlife? You do you. But the rest of the world loves that incredible voice.
@@blissinchains The 25th anniversary concert doesn't really come anywhere close to the original staging and in my opinion is not a very good substitute at all.
@@obscurevideos1855 Recording this gutted, cheapened version with a cheap, untalented cast (the Raoul aside) wouldn't be an improvement. RAH25 blows this cast here so far out of the water they'd be in orbit.
Best musical ever!!! 👍👍
Like ever!!!! So love it!!!
Does anybody know by chance if they will have tickets available around March 2021?
Do you know how to time travel?
It’s currently only booking until 13th feb, keep checking the website as it will update shortly with added dates
@@Tash2897 ahahahahaah lol
UK will likely be locked down in 2022.
Как бы мне хотелось посмотреть этот мюзикл в живую! 🤗
Если повезёт , мы с тобой сможем поехать на 45 летие )))
Думаю в Москве тоже будут ставить. Но идея с темнокожей Кристиной честно мне не нравится, хотя я хорошо отношусь ко всем.
It should be released on dvd.
Who's with me?
It was released few years ago with a different cast that was just amazing, sadly not this year
@@elenam2671 well they should release that on DVD
There is a dvd movie of it done by andrew Lloyd weber
@@keithlawton7821 what?
@@jswatch9270 I think they mean the 2004 version
I love this wonderful musical 🎶 🎵 🎤
I CAN'T WAIT TO SEE IT OMG
This original production design looks so much better than the new “refreshed” one.
@@knownothing5518 A few years ago, there was “Cameron Mackintosh’s Spectacular New Production” with new sets, lighting, staging, etc. He did the same thing to Les Mis. The originals were much better. For Phantom, the only places that have the original production/staging/sets are Broadway and the West End.
@@highoctaneadventure I liked new Les Miserables much more than the original one. Considering to see the Phantom revamped
Was not impressed this year’s cast, the magic was broken for me. I saw this opera few years ago, and was just speechless, however, this week, I was unable to listen all of it. Will wait until new cast.
That’s such a pity, I saw this cast last week and was amazed 😍
I really hope that this show will still be running for a long time. It is my dream to see this live!
I wish I could go! it looks so awesome
Went to watch this in august. Cried all the way through. Waited pretty much my whole life to watch this live and it was absolutely amazing. Amazing actors you picked
It’s so amazing!!! One of my favourite musical! Bravo!
The lighting, fuck yeah dude
just watched this two days ago and it was amazing, first broadway and I’m hooked!!🎉
Also big shoutout to everyone involved in this masterpiece! A must watch and worth every ticket sold!!!🍾🍾🎊🎉
Amei quando estive em New York e assisti O Fantasma da Ópera...sensacional!!!💞🌹
Pena que eu não fui😐
Que inveja mano... meu sonho é assistir esse musical ao vivo!! Maravilhoso ❤️🌹🌹
Eu vi aqui no Brasil no Teatro Renault em 2018 e 2019 realmente esse espetáculo é de arrepiar.
@@la_esmeralda444 eu tmb
Queria ver na Broadway tb ou em West End, mas só vi no Brasil em 2006 e 2018.
I really want to see this 😭😭
I’m so glad they actually decided to depict the Palais Garnier, the building the whole story is based off of
I do love Phantom of the Opera. But I don't care for the actors who plays in it
Cómo amo esa gran obra!!!, rio y lloro cada vez que la escucho.
I don't know how to say this, but i was dissapointed.. I've seen it before and some how these performances felt less passionate.. and a little messy in parts. Maybe I have rose tinted glasses, they're definately talented artists.
Last year was the best cast I get they want to be diversity but they should remember the phantom should be scary and deep and Hypnotising and Christine should be shy innocent and vulnerable
i've seen many Phantom trailers and promotional footage, but this is the BEST one! it looks incredible! it shows all the timeless designs and iconic moments but makes everything feel fresh and new and exciting! how i wish i could see this production with this cast!
Just horrendous. An insult to Phantom fans worldwide. Lloyd Webber repeatedly promised that the original production would return unchanged and in its entirety (his words). Then instead we get lumbered with a pale, reduced imitation. Gone is the proscenium that Hal Prince considered crucial. Gone is the Angel, Maria Björnson's favourite set piece. Gone are half the orchestra. Gone are half of the candles in the boat scene and the moving candelabra that made it so magical. Even the dry ice is skimped on so we no longer get the illusion of a lake. The costumes have been cheapened. Cost-cutting is evident everywhere. We also get a horrendously cheap-looking new flat instead of the gorgeous red curtain to look at during the interval and playout (which now sounds lame as hell with only 14 musicians). The Really Useful Group and Cameron Mackintosh have done this solely to line their pockets. Royalties no longer have to be paid to the original creatives and the original investors have been cut out. Anyone who considers this 'the best ever' or even buys the BS that this is an 'enhanced' version of the original needs their heads examining.
And they've hired a talentless hack for Christine based on current social politics to make money--along with removing seats to sell them for more money. Their phnatom sounds like he should be in a boydband, and...all this crap is coming to Broadway by mid January. I suspect their operatic (white) Christine is not leaving on her own terms. On top of that, they've somehow kept that same horrid phantom they've had for at least five years when he can't sing music of the Night without looking like he's constipated, he strains so hard--and can't even reach the right notes.
I saw this last week and thought it was amazing! And there were loads of candles and illusion of a lake, as well as red curtains. Maybe it’s changed since you wrote this comment?
@@Youokhun Presumably you never saw the bigger and better original production. You would only think this one is amazing if you had never seen it before. The candles and red curtain are there, but they are not used in the same way (nor as prominent) and the general effect is very much a watering down.
Saw this incredible performance on Sunday; breathtaking, emotional, stunning. Already want to book tickets for another date. HIGHLY RECOMMEND
I really wanna watch😭
From Japan💕
I love Japan ❤️🇯🇵
I have always wanted too go see this but no one I knows has ever wanted too see it, I think I will just go by myself.
Definitely go by yourself!! 👏
I wish I could travel to England just to see this production!! Everything looks wonderful and beautiful!!
Go to Broadway. The white principal is out there, and the black alternate is taking over. Huge buzz. You might like her--she has a better voice than the English one.
I really can't understand why people bring race at the first place saying Lucy "is the only one real Christine" because she's black... When she simply can't handle the role. When I first heard her it hurt my hearing. She has problems with vibrato - and serious ones, the voice should not tremble on every vowel, this interferes with the understanding of words in songs, and also breaks the voice. Vibrato is a loose vocal cords. And she sounds like she's croaking, sorry for the comparison.
In addition, this role implies academic performance - and Lucy sounds very flat, there is no feeling that she is an opera singer, there is no volume in her voice.
They could make Holly, who copes with the role much better and has a voice
as principal Christine, and Lucy an understudy, and then she would have trained. But no... they didn't, because of the race. So she kills the voice.
I also don't understand, they took a black actress for the role of Christine, made her a principal, made her a special wig. But blonde actresses should play with a dark wig when they could be given a wig of their hair color, and sometimes there would be real Christines - like Gaston Leroux's, otherwise it's somehow unfair. Blondes appear only in nonreplicas, and Emmi Christensson was many many years ago, and then as an understudy.
Christine is a Swede. Meant to be fair-haired, blue-eyed and in need of a good pair of spectacles because she couldn't read without them. She's not an immigrant to Sweden from Nigeria. That would be an entirely different story, because her father would have told her completely different stories--and that's just a start. We can just try and ignore what cultural and societal normas and attitudes were toward black people at the time, even in France, but there is no way she would ever be hired at an opera house to do more than cleaning. That's truly not a good thing, but that was 1880s France--and 1880s Western Countries for the most part. Ignoring that is shameful and does a disservice to the struggles of actual people of colour who lived back then.
But she's black in the age of BLM, so nobody cares if it makes sense, or if she can sing. All that matters is that she and the lady on broadway are black. And if you listen to them much more, they'll want the entire cast replaced with black actors, crew and orchestra. Race is all that matters to these people.
Lucy can't sing. (Emilie on Broadway is better, buuut...still, no.) She's not had the classical training necessary for this role. If you compare her to her predecessors, Kelly Mathieson or Amy Manford...well, there is NO comparison. They blow her out of the water because they were hired for talent, not race.
Lucy and Emilie were hired to make money from BLM theatregoers. That's it. They've cheapened everything else, ruined the blocking of several numbers, changed the tempo and lyrics to pander to a black Christine, and the special wigs which tbh should have been done up in the same corscrew curls as the other Christines, because black women did curl their hair that way too--it's all to pander to the "woke" crowd and make money. But in doing so, they've abandoned their longterm fans who are often repeat goers.
With how cheap the shows are now, I hope they close. Woke politics have ruined the arts.
Why ??? Blacks don’t let anyone to play their roles. Why whites to let them ??? Can you answer ???
My birthday December
My mam?......50year-to-year
CAN WE TALK ABOUT HOW WE FINALLY HAVE A BLACK CHRISTINE 🤩?!
Can we talk about how brilliant she is?!?!
Your a few months late lol, but yeah, she's lit.
Why does that matter? She's purely amazing. Don't cheapen her achievement by bringing ethnicity into this.
@@LT-jc4qb Nobody can judge her talent because of her ethnicity, or have an opinion beyond "she's amazing." If she is, let her sing and prove it. Don't just judge by looks, though that's precisely what most people have done. I think the understudy for Meghan Picerno on Broadway is much more talented, to be honest.
SO TRUE BESTIE, I'M SO OBSESSED, SHE DESERVES EVERYTHING 💖💖💖
Gentlemen
0:32 The way she's in a trance makes her look like she was bitten by a vampire.
Raoul is very handsome!!❤️
Amazing! Love POTO🌹
Genuine Phans dumped on. Gala night switched from the actual anniversary to make way for a plumped up marketing ploy to dupe ‘celebrities’ to tweet from the assigned Gala night. The REAL reception received by the cast and orchestra was on Saturday 9th. We were offered limp speech by Killian. There are no limits to the disregard for the true fans of this show that have consistently supported Phantom for literally decades. Get a frigging grip on yourselves all at Cameron Macintosh and the Really Useful Group.
Lol that's an interesting opinion, I was there that Saturday night and found the speech and also the singing of happy birthday to the cast rather endearing and not overshadowed by unnecessary pomp, but to each their own.
I have seen around 12 shows over the 35 years and hope to see the latest some time this year.
I love this so much. I think I'm gonna explode.
THIS IS THE COOLEST PHANTOM'S TRAILER EVER 😍😍😍 I can't wait to see it, I'm coming soon!
Amazing! 👏🏻
Indonesia hadir bos 🇮🇩
LET'S F*CKING GO!!!!
Why do some phantoms have small capes? Some are oversized cloaks
Saw this yesterday in Her Majesty’s Theater in London
The Phantom of the Opera will always be one of my favorite musicals :D
Just saw this at the weekend - completely awe-struck by the production and the amazing performances. Can’t wait to go again.
i watched the same show a few days ago in london with the same cast it was outstanding
The most amazing feeling🍀
Petition to make this original staging and maybe this cast a dvd/blu-ray
Definitely with this cast, probably the best I've ever seen, rivaling and perhaps eclipsing the original.
@@loki_808 ikr a woman with color, the best set and a great cast.
My favorite Broadway show ever and I love it so much ❤️🥰❤️ ❤️
One thing helpings too be loved,.
saw it few weeks ago loved it
i want to see this so badly holy heck.
I wish this production would be released as a film.
eu curto muito todas quase todos os dias 💗💗💗💗👏👏
I’m playing Christine in the phantom of the opera concert at my new house on Saturday 27 of august
The Phantom of the Opera Original West End Cast Recording
Her Majesty's Theatre Haymarket London UK
i wish it'd come back to boston or providence again! whats up with that?
Its very nice of Opera thanks
Y’all really gonna give her THAT for Masquerade?
It’s the same concept dress as all theatre shows.
@@dreamersproduction1737 yes, and the Cinderella dress for sale in Target’s Halloween section is the same concept as the one worn in the film. It doesn’t mean there isn’t a wide gap in quality.
Goosebumps
I still miss the original cast before this new cast. The new trailer is good but I miss the cast before the pandemic happened.
The 2020 cast was leagues better. Their Phantom was literally an operatic tenor; Kelly Mathieson had operatic training, and would've been replaced last September, but she still had some 6 months left. Their Carlotta was INCREDIBLE. Love Britt Lenting. And they had the best looking (and sounding!) Piangi I've ever seen. Now Australia has at least half of the above mentioned actors. Their gain, London's loss.
And they fired actors, swings who'd been there 30+ years with the company and same with their musicians. Why would anyone want to work for these people? Cameron mackintosh has proven thoroughly he doesn't give a flip about firing anyone on a whim. Even the first black Christine.
💗💗👏👏👏👏💗💗
Im here beacuse i wanted to find out if 50 ways to say good bye really sounds like this one...yes true the music/mwlody only a little slower in this one
OMG 🔥❤️😊💞🌟🙏🤗
THAT IS FUCKING AWESOME!!
This looks so good! Hopefully comes by Seattle sometime!
I saw it today and can't get over how amazing it was!!!
One Amazing Show.Lets celebrate for another 35 Years.Once Seen Never Forgotten.
Wao！！！！
YES!!! Hope they eventually put it on Amazon like the 25th anniversary 😍
Ikr this cast is amazing and a dvd/blu ray would be amazing with this set
Finally seeing it in December cant wait
This Christine looks older than the Christine in Love Never Dies and that was supposed to be 10 years later
She looks the 30-something year old she is. Sierra could still pull it off when she was 30.
who so the ginger i need to know
什么时候来中国演出？非常期待
Has anyone seen the new "refreshed" production in the West End and, if so, did you notice the differences? This looks pretty much the same, although I know did they some set slimming/changes and cut the orchestra by almost half.
I’m pretty sure it opened with the refreshed version.
The last Christine wasn’t been blonde, these people in the comments are grasping at anything they can 🙄
Any GOOD reviews of the reopened show for this West End production? I've seen better in the distant past and YES, I speak of Michael and Sarah! 🤨
Not from anyone who just went and saw nothing beyond "the first black Christine AAAA!!!11" The cast they had pre-Covid was superb and the best they'd had in a decade at least. And they were fired over Zoom by an employee of RUG. Cameron couldn't even be bothered to do it.
@@blissinchains the Raoul in this production is genuinely the best I’ve ever seen
@@colonyofrats4193 He's one of the most earnest portrayals I've seen and I generally don't like the character. There's a few exceptions. Steve Barton, Matt Leisy--and now this one.
Just saw it for the first time in London, was amazing. Love the cast!! Incredible experience.!
Watching this little video brought me to tears- what I would give to see this performance with this cast. Wish I could go back to London just for this!
What an amazing production to see in person!
I saw this show yesterday, one word: PHENOMENAL!!! Amazing job to everyone involved, I had goosebumps the whole time and I can never thank the cast enough for the insane moment of happiness this musical gave me, thank you 💕 Lucy, Rhys and Killian were phenomenal 🥰🥰
Meh. Get your original set back. Including the angel and full proscenium. Get back the expensive, gorgeous costumes that don't look like they're made of ployester. Hire back those 13 musicians you canned for no reason. Hire back the crew you laid off for no reason. Apolgize to the 2020 cast for firing them and not allowing them to continue to fulfill their contracts when restrictions ease. And to the audience for having to pay more for a cheapened version of what WAS a msgnificent show. The current cast is lacklustre, in terms of talent. Your Raoul is the only standout for me, so earnest and expressive. Otherwise... I'll head to Broadway to see the show as Hal Prince imagined it.
As great as the original set was, it was tearing the building apart around it. There's reasons for some of these decisions - can't speak to all.
Bore off. The original sets were crumbling and needed replacing anyway. I saw the original 26 times and loved it and I have seen this revamped version twice and love it just as much.
@@SamLloydPresents Nah. It's ugly, it sounds terrible and fake with not even half the previous orchestra and the costumes look cheaaaaap. Not to mention the cast doesn't have a quarter of the talent of the cast they fired without recourse in 2020. That had been their best cast in a decade or more. Sorry, but this show's as good as done for. Broadway is where it's at. Because they actually protect their employees with a union. :)
@@blissinchains I disagree but we’re all entitled to our opinion. Most shows change throughout their life span. Les Mis has had major set and orchestra reductions too but people still flock to see it. I get a lot of enjoyment from watching Phantom in London and will continue to see it as often as I can. I think it’s still wonderful.
@@blissinchains Then don't watch it hun....simple.
Loved
🥰🥰🥰
Lo siento...pero como Sarah ninguna.
Dont leave us Phantom we need you I say I love you you know I do No masquerade
i would sell an organ to watch this live
Looks like they brought back (& improved) the OLD production design instead of that awful set in the revamped touring version.
I mean i hope it's good
I need Philip Griffiths to be the auctioneer & Monsieur Reyer at HMT! Is he going to be there???
He was fired and not asked back. The way the former cast and crew were all treated is disgusting. I'm not sure how anyone can salivate over this. Let Cammack go broke, the way he callously thinks the members of his orchestras should instead of providing them with stable, longterm jobs.
I just want to vomit. Terrible. It seems like a bad joke.
Cry
I like this Christine, but this Phantom is kinda…meh.
Amazing as ever!
And oh my goodness, the Phantom was on a pegasus.
:D
Just saw the show tonight and while it was very good I must say the cast from 2019 was far stronger. I specifically think Carlotta fell short and really didn't nail the highs if Prima Donna. Phantom was good in parts but lacked some of the acting chops and didn't have that a strong erotic chemistry with Christine
Josh Piterman, Kelly Mathieson (Bridget Costello, Amy Manford, Corinne Cowling), Paul Tabone, Britt Lenting, et al were the best cast that show's had in the past decade at least. What's currently there and is cheap trash. Broadway is a bit better, but they need a decent Phantom and to keep their operatic Christine longer. Just sucks that politics are determining casting.
