The show is fresh again and it's definitely worth the ticket price.

My biggest gripe is that the great singing that one would have every right to expect from an "opera-based" show is virtually nonexistent. The seats do seem close together and space seemed a bit tight on elbow room, but nothing to really worry about. I couldn't decide if he was deliberately lisping at times in "Music of the Night" or if the mask was constricting his mouth.

Will Barret as Raoul, well, sorry but he's awful. I could not recommend this musical less. I think all the seats in the stalls at both sides at the back will be the same. Excellent seats. We sat in the Grand Circle D17 and D18 which is right in the middle. I didn't find the seat very comfortable. The seats on the very ends of the rows are as unobstructed as those in the centre, and with everyone in the one space, theres something endearingly collegiate about it. P.S.

Theatremonkey braces itself for the backlash when it admits it found this show utterly, utterly lame. __________________________________________. Its an iconic role that demands much of its performer, far too much it seems for Mr McCann. Alf Most of it was drowning in an excess of sentimentality and melodrama. His Phantom is both angry and vulnerable, and I have always agreed with the Monkey in thinking that Christine chooses the wrong man, and this time it feels like that even more so than with past Phantoms. All in all an enjoyable afternoons entertainment but not a show we will be rushing back to soon. The view from here was brilliant, and absolutely fantastic for the chandelier moments, as well as enabling you to see the Phantom at the top of the rig (which you would miss out on if further forward or under the overhang if further back).

Rachel Barrell is the best Christine I have ever seen, it was such a relief to see a real actress/singer after the horrors of Emi Rosum in the movie.

He is a true gentleman and a real star in a profession where there are few. BEWARE These seats have restricted viewing (although not sold as such ) the floor of the balcony cuts off the top of the stage. I have to say I was more impressed than I was expecting. I had totally forgotten the background story (of course I knew the Phantom/Christine bit) and so it was like watching it all for the first time. His voice is much too weak, his acting is poor and the way he reads Raoul and decides to play him is insensitive and irritating. The storyline is cringing to say the least, but romantic in the smallest sense, and the image that is associated with Phantom is one of love. We paid 40 + booking fee for Seats B27 and 28 in the Grand Circle, and whilst I'd never usually choose seats this high-up, I'd read on good authority (i.e. Gina Beck is a brilliant actress as is Simon Bailey and of course the much loved Ramin. He has a strong voice and I think he will make a good Phantom in the future.

This show knocks spots off the movie and I am currently reading the novel, struggling a little with it as it is quite different. She even lip-synced the duet 'Phantom of the Opera' because suddenly her voice was completely different. _____________________________. When the actors sang on stage is sometimes was hard to hear, and when the actors sang off stage or a recording was playing it was much louder, so they either make the sound louder when the onstage or quieter when they are off. The costumes and sets were magnificent. Christina. Would definitely sit here again but would be more wary of B11 as that seat seemed more behind the conductor than I was - definitely worth the green rating on the seating plan. Not being a fan of Lloyd Webber works, I must confess a soft spot for Phantom. Placed at the end of the aisle in the centre I could see everything and even the slight overhang above did not obscure too much of THE chandelier. Those upper balconies are rarely filled, because they do give a strange, heightened view of the stage, but they dont completely cut you out. With Sofia she seemed a bit more mature to compliment; but with Katie she acted so much younger, they did seem like childish yet lovable girlfriends. and long legs although some shifting was required occasionally. I cannot honestly fault anything at all and we are going again for certain - it's the best show we have ever seen. I've seen him with Celia Graham and they were superb together. We sat, on the recommendation of this website and one or two others, in seats 20 and 21 of row C of the Royal Circle - the very best seats in the entire theatre. Sure, there are some shows so spectacular and unmissable youd happily sit anywhere, but most experiences in the theatre can be augmented by the best seats in the house. From here I could literally feel the vibrations of the music, especially the first dramatic bits when the chandelier rose up. It's typical that much of the show seemed to take place here - with very little on the alternative side of the stage - so, with that in mind I highly recommend sitting to the right hand side of the theatre if choosing. At full price, I would have preferred to have been one or two rows further back and a little closer to the centre, but as a TKTS purchase this was absolutely brilliant value. Dave Lorenz. I couldn't have been more wrong, from the very beginning I was hooked and when the chandelier swings into the audience with the spine chilling music the hairs stood up on the back of my neck. I. It made the hairs on the back of my neck stand up and I went all shivery! McCanns masterpiece provides the perfect Phantom "After deciding it was finally time to see The Phantom of the Opera, I didn't want to pay too much for something I wasn't sure I would enjoy. The toilets were out of order resulting in long queues around the stairs. The gentleman that previously wrote in the defence of Raoul lacking charisma is so correct in what he says, yes this is how Raoul is supposed to beI think that those who slate POTO have no appreciation for this form of entertainment which is absolutely fine as we all have different tastes but hey just admit that its not for you, there's no need to rip it apart.take note Theatre Now I have see the Phantom just over 10 times now - he is far below the standard of any other Raoul I have ever seen. Typically, stalls seats can be regarded as some of the best seats in the auditorium, due to their close proximity to the stage. The silver lining for me had to be the 80s music: not long into the first half the synthesizer kicked in, shortly followed by the drum-beat which I'm guessing originated from the same lame 80s Casio organ (they must have been taking good care of it for it to last so long..). Emma So what it the emotion is overblown? I want to see it again as soon as I can get ticket.
