Took my kids to see Phantom of the Opera. The arrangements are a bit dated, the acting is formal and lacking in emotion but the performance runs like clockwork on the sheer force of its professionalism. 37 years running and it still has a full house, an entire theatre is dedicated to performing only this show and there is a standing ovation at the end. It’s remarkable the enduring power of a 19th century story with a 1980’s score wrapped in a musical time warp. Somehow, it works. #london #phantomoftheopera (at Her Majesty's Theatre) https://www.instagram.com/p/CqXPk1rNL6D/?igshid=NGJjMDIxMWI=
