Book Description

The Phantom of the Opera is the longest running show in Broadway history and the most successful musical of all time. It has been seen on stage by over 140 million people worldwide since it first opened in London on October 9, 1986 at Her Majesty’s Theatre, which has been its home ever since. Now it has been transformed into this outstanding Graphic Novel, illustrated by José María Beroy and adapted by Cavan Scott from the original Libretto written by Andrew Lloyd Webber, Charles Hart and Richard Stilgoe. The timeless story, based on the original book by Gaston Leroux, sees the beautiful soprano Christine Daaé become the obsession of the hideously disfigured and mysterious Phantom of the Opera, the musical genius who rules – through fear – the Paris Opera House from his subterranean lair deep beneath the streets of Paris. Relive every moment and every song of the classic stage musical – from the legendary chandelier crash, to Christine’s first visit to the Paris catacombs and the Phantom’s lair: Open your mind, let your fantasies unwind and let this book take you back to the wonders of the Phantom of the Opera.
