@mattjbarr82 They moved the pipe - it was known as the “Stag Doo”

Any show musicians (includes singers, instrumentalists and even synthesiser players) need help?

Flashback to the original London production of ‘The Phantom of the Opera’, which sadly closed in 2020 after nearly 34 spectacular years. Later replaced by the now downscaled tour version, with only half the orchestra and no proscenium.

Webber’s licensing site needs an update

@OfficialALW @PhantomOpera With respect, how can you still experience the lavish Broadway production in all its original glory, with Maria Björnson’s sets and a full orchestra, and not wish the same for #PhantomLondon? It’s truly bizarre. Please bring back ‘The Brilliant Original’ to London!

[phantom orchestra @phantomorch]

@GrossmanMax Yes! Good news on all fronts but you won't see that from Cameron Mackintosh - too expensive!

[phantom orchestra @phantomorch]

This is so sad to read! Has Cameron Mackintosh killed the goose that laid the golden eggs?

@KatjaB7 @theatre_direct @PhantomOpera @killiandonnelly We also celebrated the 35th anniversary since we started Phantom in a nearby restaurant on Saturday but of course we weren’t invited to any official celebration.

Casting is now confirmed for the October return of @PhantomBway, which, unlike #PhantomLondon will be returning in its original form with #MariaBjörnson’s designs and #HalPrince’s direction intact with a full, lush orchestra: https://t.co/lDRMXImpp6 #PhantomBroadway #Broadway

@NaomiPohl @WeAreTheMU @ace_national This is appalling! It’s bad enough being sacked so a producer can make more money but this …

[Fantôme de l'Opéra @fantomedelopera]

#OnThisDay 7 months ago, @OfficialALW asked the public to note that @PhantomBway’s orchestra was “the biggest on Broadway” in this video and that it would return. #PhantomLondon's @phantomorch was also the biggest in the West End, but was cut in half with @OfficialALW’s consent.

⁦@OfficialALW⁩ ⁦@PhantomOpera⁩
Wonderful to hear this magnificent live orchestra celebrating the fantastic music of Broadway ⁦@bbcproms⁩! The West End now relies on plastic, robotic synthesised sounds!

@StephenMear … and to the wonderful orchestra too!

[phantom orchestra @phantomorch]

@brtel37 @OfficialALW Yes! One or two of us but a lot of our wonderful deputies and great colleagues

@londontheatrer1 @PhantomOpera @OfficialALW @killiandonnelly @OdaSaori @adamlinstead @GregCastiglioni @CamMackLtd @BooneLeeroy @DonaldCraig @JustJem “Despite the orchestra being cut in half, this was certainly not noticeable with the show louder than ever.” Maybe you should be listening for quality not quantity? #amplification #earplugs #tinnitus

[anoperaghost @anoperaghostt]

a reminder that the current cast and crew in london had nothing to do with what happened to the previous cast, orchestra, etc. in the last year. be upset, be critical, but remember to direct it at the correct people :)

[phantom orchestra @phantomorch]

@NadimNaaman @rajshah0 @ShentonStage @PhantomOpera … needing new orchestration? Mozart et al would be proud to have their works “modernised” too

[phantom orchestra @phantomorch]

@aimeeleslee @fatbarry2000 it has gone from live chamber opera orchestra to synthesiser enhanced show band

[phantom orchestra @phantomorch]

@aimeeleslee That certainly wasn’t offered as our redundancy package!
