What is The Phantom Of The Opera about?
A hauntingly beautiful tale of love and acceptance, The Phantom of the Opera is based on Gaston Leroux’s 1910 gothic novel, LeFantôme de l’Opera.’ Hidden in the shadows of the French Opera House, a vengeful masked creature reigns terror on the theatre's performers and patrons. The Phantom, as he is referred to by terrified theatregoers, soon becomes obsessed with the beautiful new soprano, Christine Daaé, and successfully lures her to join him as his protégé. However, when Christine's childhood sweetheart, Raoul, comes back into her life, the Phantom’s obsession catapults a dramatic series of events where jealousy, madness, and passions collide.
