The Shows Must Go On!:

In celebration of the 25th Anniversary of Andrew Lloyd Webber’s The Phantom of the Opera, Cameron Mackintosh produced a unique, spectacular staging of the musical on a scale which had never been seen before. Inspired by the original staging by Hal Prince and Gillian Lynne, this lavish, fully-staged production set in the sumptuous Victorian splendour of London’s legendary Royal Albert Hall features a cast and orchestra of over 200, plus some very special guest appearances.

This show will be taken down at 7pm today in the UK. Everywhere else, it will be available to watch until Sunday 11am PT / 2pm ET.

If, like me, you’ve never seen this version, make plans to snuggle up on the couch and watch it this evening. I’m going to.
