It was well done, Singing was a little bit iffy at times. But otherwise a great production.

Any tips for which seats are the best value for money? I'm not sure if it's worth paying $100+ for A Reserve if they're only marginally better than B reserve etc. And which ticket seller are they anyway? I googled Phantom and it seems that there are a number of resellers?

I went A reserve but wouldnt advise going and spending so much if youre not a fan. One of my friends came just for the sake of coming (they had never seen phantom and dont really like that kind of thing) and almost fell asleep because they couldnt follow it.

But I thought is was really good. B reserve tickets would probably okay, but personally I wouldnt get any worse seat that that just because I dont spend too much money going to things like that and when I do I want it ot be good.

The normal seller is ticketmaster. But the production is ending soon so you better be quick.

Yeah. they were amazing, but I kinda felt sorry for them because they were put under the stage...

My seat was great too. Pretty much under the chandalier (sp?)

Loved it, although we didn't have great seats.

The musical spoke for itself.
Thought the set design was awesome, and the Phantom was superb.

Rightio, I've booked for 23rd August 8pm. How long does Phantom last for? The last bus to the city leaves just after midnight, so hopefully that's enough time?

I want to hear Anthony Warlow sing. He's brilliant.

When's the last day again?

If I do end up going, I have to settle for a matinée performance.

Stephen Sondheim>Andrew Lloyd Webber. But I went on the opening performance and it was very good. I wish they'd release a cast album, I really like Anthony Wallow and he makes Jekyll and Hyde bearable.
 

what a dilemma!

I fell in love with the whole thing.
Some of Andrew Lloyd Webber's music leaves something to be desired, but still. Totally worth it.
Even though I didn't get to see Anthony Warlow.

Twas great, except that Christine's singing left a little to be desired. Other than that, was very impressed with the staging and the smoothness of it all...especially liked the Phantom's lair and the lights coming up shimmering from the depths of the lake.
