Cameron Mackintosh's spectacular new production of Andrew Lloyd Webber's phenomenal musical The Phantom of the Opera will be unveiled at the Theatre Royal Plymouth in March 2012 ahead of a national tour.

With a brilliant new design by Paul Brown, costumes by the much missed Maria Björnson, a new staging by Laurance Connor, director of the recent acclaimed 25th anniversary celebration at The Royal Albert Hall and with new choreography by Scott Ambler. Lighting design is by Paule Constable and sound design by Mick Potter. The production is overseen by Cameron Mackintosh and Matthew Bourne.

Far beneath the majesty and splendour of the Paris Opera House, hides the Phantom in a shadowy existence. Shamed by his physical appearance and feared by all, the love he holds for his beautiful protégée Christine Daaé is so strong that even her heart cannot resist.
