Ticket Giveaway: “Love Never Dies” @ Redwood City’s Cinemark Movie Theatres, 2/28

Since Love Never Dies hasn’t been produced in the United States (yet!) the only way you’ll get to see the sequel to The Phantom of the Opera is to check out the two night movie event of the year! And The Broadway Critic Blog is giving away four tickets (two winners – 2 tickets each)!!

Come and enjoy the fully staged pre-recorded performance of Love Never Dies captured from The Regent Theatre in Melbourne, Australia. This is a mesmerizing follow-up to the multi-award winning The Phantom of the Opera, featuring a 21-piece orchestra and an impressive cast of 36 including actors Ben Lewis as Phantom and Anna O’Byrne as Christine Daaé.

The production will enchant and bring audiences into a world of passion, obsession and romance. Based on a book by Ben Elton, the captivating love story of the Phantom and Christine Daaé continues in New York’s playground, Coney Island. After his disappearance from the Paris Opera house, the Phantom begins a new life in New York amongst the freaks and side shows. The only thing missing from his new life is his musical protégée Christine. In an effort to win back his love, the Phantom lures Christine and her family to this new sparkling unknown world.

Here’s my review of the original production of Love Never Dies in London. (Though I’ve heard they have made significant changes to the Australian production.)
