"Phantom" Sequel Coming Soon

Composer Andrew Lloyd Webber plans to stage the musical sequel to Phantom of the Opera in London in October or November of 2009.

The working title for the production is Once Upon Another Time.

Lloyd Webber held a workshop production of Act One at his country estate in Sydmonton, and he is now writing the second act.

The musical sequel is based on The Phantom of Manhattan by Frederick Forsyth. In 1906, the Phantom runs a freak show at Coney Island, NY. Christine, an opera diva, is married to Raoul.

If you are curious about how the romantic triangle plays out, read the book.
