While the reboot comes with added theatrical flair-live flames, pyrotechnics, state-of-the-art strobe lighting, theatrical smoke and a very grand chandelier, the story remains the old, beloved one with much-loved songs like “Masquerade”, “Music Of The Night” and “All I Ask Of You”. The musical is back with renewed glory in the Emerald City as part of a North American tour, and you can get your tickets here. With a cast and orchestra of 52 members, new staging, and impressive special effects, the production has only gotten more grandiose with the reincarnation. With the Tony Award and the Olivier Award to its credit, the show has entertained audiences since 1986. With more than 30 years and going strong, the musical is Broadway’s longest running show. The musical is so immersive that walking out of Seattle’s Paramount Theatre into downtown’s buzzing nightlife was almost a rude shock to the senses.Ĭameron Mackintosh’s breathtaking new production of Andrew Lloyd Webber’ s THE PHANTOM OF THE OPERA returns to Seattle at the Paramount Theatre through August 19th. The show itself is a treat for the senses. Walking into the show was like traveling back to a time in history, to 19th century France. Or for days after, as was the case with me, after watching the stunning production on its opening night on the August 8th.
