Phantom is the musical melodrama about the frightening caped and masked 'phantom' living in the depths of the Paris Opera House. The Phantom lives for beautiful music and is mesmerized by a young and beautiful soprano, Christine. The Tony Award-winning authors Maury Yestin and Arthur Kopit have transformed Gaston Leroux’ The Phantom of the Opera into a theatrical sensation that enraptures audiences and critics with beautiful songs and an expertly crafted book. It is constructed around characters more richly developed than in any other version, including the original novel.
