"World-famous composer Lord Lloyd-Webber has launched his latest musical, Love Never Dies - a sequel to the award-winning Phantom of the Opera.
Set on New York's Coney Island in 1907, 10 years after the Phantom fled Paris, it is co-written by Ben Elton and has taken more than two years to complete.
Ramin Karimloo, currently playing the Phantom in London, returns to the role opposite Broadway's Sierra Boggess.
The show is set to open at London's Adelphi Theatre on 9 March, 2010.
It is expected to open in New York in November next year."

i read about this a while back. to me, the phantom of the opera is a tale of its own and shouldn't be continued.
i wonder, why is it set in New York? doesn't seem like it'll have the same elegance in Coney Island as in Paris.
we'll see...

And, pray tell, who will play Christine? Must be someone with the range and vocal qualities required for the 'music of the night'.
Looking forward to the whole experience Phantom gave us.......Andrew Lloyd Weber rocks! - 2 years ago
