Они оба безумно любили её, до самой её смерти. Они дарили ей цветы и сражались за неё. А она? Ведомая музыкой тёмной стороны страсти и спасённой лёгкой пушинкой любовной чистоты. С кем осталась она? Кого она любила по-настоящему? И после смерти обрела ли она покой?
Когда зажжётся свеча, когда в ложе номер пять освободят место и новый шедевр поставят на подмостках сгоревшего парижского театра... мы узнаем ответ на этот вопрос. А пока... пока просто задуйте свечу и прислушайтесь... ведь где-то в глубине вас живёт точно такой же призрак, призрак оперы...
Now the longest-running show in Broadway history, Andrew Lloyd Webber's The Phantom of the Opera has played to over 100 million people in 22 countries in 113 cities around the world since its first performance. The New York production alone has enchanted over 10 million audience members in its over 19-year run.
In The Phantom of the Opera, a young singer, Christine, is charmed by a mysterious specter who haunts the Paris Opera house. Based on Gaston Leroux's famous novel, the musical's tale begins as unexplained accidents have been occurring throughout the Paris Opera, and the stuck-up diva, Carlotta, refuses to go on. Christine takes her place and is a triumph.
At her opening night, she meets her childhood friend, Raoul. Alone in her dressing room, she finally meets the Phantom who has taught her to sing so beautifully. Taking her to his lair in the misty catacombs beneath the Opera House, the Phantom declares his love for Christine, but she soon learns his terrible secret. The story moves from the Phantom's underground hideaway to the dizzying roof of the Opera House, as the Phantom and Raoul battle for Christine's love.
