    There are few West End productions as tenacious as Andrew Lloyd Webber's 'The Phantom of the Opera'. Having warbled its way through three decades, 'Phantom' is the world's second longest-running musical (after 'Les Misérables') and is still going strong at Her Majesty's Theatre, where it premiered in 1986. The production's latest leading man, Marcus Lovett, smuggles Time Out backstage, taking us on a tour through his dressing room and key pieces of the set, before donning the iconic Phantom costume and hitting the stage.
    Camerawork and editing by Steve Jones
    Planning and direction by Oliver Robinson

    Is it just me or ALL THE ACTORS who ever played Erik, have VERY decent attitude and gentleman-ish behavior??

      I think it was the Character setting that's why?

      i've noticed that as well. Perhaps it's a reflection of the character, or perhaps a result of the personality type that the casting directors look for.

    I love that he appreciates the people behind the scenes who work hard to bring the story to the stage. It’s not all the actors; it’s the stagehands, the people who ready the wigs, the designers, the director, the lighting, and every other part that no one sees but is absolutely essential.
    To those of you here who are the unseen workers, thank you. You are very important, and you are appreciated for all you do in the theater.

    Right people listen up! The clips that you see are from the trailer for the show and it's Ramin as the phantom and Gina Beck as Christine! Marcus sounds nothing like Ramin! And Ramin had performed with multiple Christine's not just Sierra! I thought I'd tell you guys!

      @AndrewMacLaine 2 ปีที่แล้ว +4

      @@beneddiected Mdme. Giry has a line near the beginning of the play saying the Phantom receives a regular salary of 20,000 francs. So I guess the OP was saying that he didn't Need to take/steal anything from the opera house's costume department, as Lovett theorizes in this tour, since he has his own money.
      However, and this is me speculating now, the Phantom doesn't ever go outside the threatre. So it wouldn't surprise me if he helped himself to costumes (after all, he considers the opera house "his") and left money for the laborers. That or he leaves notes/instructions for the costumers to make him new clothing and then pays them. How else would he be able to dress so well?

      I always wondered if they got the number wrong there. She says 20,000 francs per month. That's an insane amount of money. How much could the opera house possibly make per month if if has to pay the Phantom 20k each month? They would be bankrupt in no time lmao
      Edit: also, in the book, the Phantom/Erik does leave the Opera house and wears a fake nose when he does so.

    I have no idea if ghosts exist, but if so: I would love that, so you are never alone and they can see what happens to their theater, for example. Thank you for this, is really, really interesting! I did not know that white tie is more formal then the black one! I did not know you have an oven for the wicks, either! So cool, eh, so hot! That's amazing that Leroux investigated for his book first...

      Too bad he chose to raise his family instead of being famous. His Phantom voice is unique. He could be a Broadway Phantom or world tour Phantom.
      But it's quite understandable because Heidi, his wife, chose the same thing.
