Kuala Lumpur, June 2019 – Yes, this is the month! The month in which the
world’s most popular musical, THE
PHANTOM OF THE OPERA will be making its premiere in Kuala Lumpur for a
limited season at the Istana Budaya
from 15th June 2019 onwards.
This
Andrew Lloyd Webber blockbuster has
won over 70 major theatre awards, including seven Tony’s on Broadway and four Olivier Awards in the West End. THE PHANTOM OF THE OPERA became the
longest running show in Broadway history on January 9, 2006 when it celebrated its 7,486th performance, surpassing the previous record holder “Cats”.
On January 1, 2018 it celebrated its 13,000th
performance and later that month on January 24, the Broadway production
celebrated an amazing 30 years on Broadway.
With
130 cast, crew and orchestra members, jaw-dropping scenery, breathtaking special
effects and more than 230 costumes by the late international designer Maria Björnson, THE PHANTOM OF THE OPERA
contains some of Andrew Lloyd Webber’s most famous and stirring music,
including The Phantom of the Opera,
Think of Me and Music of the Night. The original cast recording, with over
40 million copies sold worldwide, is the best-selling cast recording of all
time.
Based
on the classic novel Le Fantôme de
L’Opéra by Gaston Leroux, THE PHANTOM OF THE OPERA tells the tale
of a disfigured musical genius known only as the Phantom who haunts the depths
of the Paris Opera House. Mesmerised by the talent and beauty of a young
soprano, Christine, the Phantom lures her as his protégé and falls fiercely in
love with her. Unaware of Christine’s love for Raoul, the Phantom’s obsession
sets the scene for a dramatic turn of events where jealousy, madness and
passions collide.
THE PHANTOM OF THE OPERA, which opened at Her
Majesty's Theatre in London’s West End
on October 9, 1986, starred Michael Crawford as the Phantom and Sarah
Brightman as Christine. It is produced by Cameron
Mackintosh and The Really Useful
Group. THE PHANTOM OF THE OPERA
is presented in Kuala Lumpur by Lunchbox
Productions, Base Entertainment Asia and TEG Dainty.
