The legendary @CarlDavisMusic, who composed an unsurpassed soundtrack to the 1925 #PhantomoftheOpera as well as a recent new ballet adaptation of #GastonLeroux’s novel, has sadly passed away. #RIP #CarlDavis

For the first time, @OfficialALW's @PhantomOpera will be performed in an opera house actually designed by #CharlesGarnier — but not the #PalaisGarnier. The Opéra de Monte Carlo will host a transfer of the new Italian production in December: shorturl.at/duP79 #MonteCarlo

Five years ago today I lost my wonderful wife of 40 years and the world lost a creative genius who lived inside the kindest most effective communicator that ever strode the earth. Dame Gillian Lynne DBE loved Dance & it loved her - love to you Gillie.pl

In a piece on the end of @OfficialALW's 40 -year #Broadway stint, @WhatsOnStage opines that the "inevitable revival" of @PhantomOpera in #NYC is unlikely to "match the grandeur of Hal Prince’s original staging", particularly given its downsizing in London: shorturl.at/agntT

Greetings from the actual castle at #Otranto, Italy. #HoraceWalpole’s THE CASTLE OF OTRANTO is widely considered to be the first #Gothic novel, featuring many tropes that find their way into #GastonLeroux’s LE FANTÔME DE L’OPÉRA. #TheCastleofOtranto #IlCastellodiOtranto

On the difficulties of translating @PhantomOpera into Mandarin: bit.ly/3o7VwfZ @OfficialALW's adaptation of #GastonLeroux's novel runs, in a pared-down version not as opulent as the show's 2004 incarnation in Shanghai, throughout the summer across cities in China.

Opening tonight! Le Fantome De L'Opera, with sets by @LezBrotherston and a new score by Carl, premieres at Shanghai Ballet. In Derek Deane’s balletic take on the subject, Christine is transformed into a budding ballerina, the protegee of the mysterious Phantom. Toi, Toi, Toi.
