Cameron Mackintosh is delighted to present a spectacular new production of Andrew Lloyd Webber's The Phantom of the Opera coming to the Palace Theatre, Manchester in April and May 2012. The Phantom of the Opera will star John Owen-Jones, who plays the role of 'The Phantom' and Katie Hall who will play the role of 'Christine'.

Cameron Mackintosh said 'After 25 phenomenal years and a glorious celebration of the show’s success at the Royal Albert Hall at the start of this month, I’m delighted to announce that a spectacular new production of Andrew Lloyd Webber's legendary musical will open its National Tour next March in Plymouth. With an exciting new design and staging, retaining Maria Björnson’s amazing costumes, be the first to surrender to the music of the night and fall in love with the Phantom in his new guise all over again'.

This spectacular new production is directed by Laurence Connor, with choreography by Scott Ambler, Set Design by Paul Brown, Costume Design by Maria Björnson, Lighting Design by Paule Constable and Sound Design by Mick Potter. The production is overseen by Cameron Mackintosh and Matthew Bourne.

In October 2010 the London production celebrated its 10,000th performance.
