Broward center: phantom of the opera (reviews).

Following an acclaimed sold-out tour of the United Kingdom, Cameron Mackintosh's spectacular new production of Andrew Lloyd Webber's phenomenal musical success, The Phantom of the Opera, is coming to the Broward Center as part of a brand new North American Tour. Hailed by critics as "bigger and better than ever before," this production boasts many exciting special effects including the show's legendary chandelier, new scenic and lighting designs, new staging and choreography. The beloved story and thrilling score will be performed by a cast and orchestra of 52, making this Phantom one of the largest productions now on tour.

For all the derision and adoration that the basic material has engendered over 28 years, the thoroughly-retooled The Phantom of the Opera gliding over a fog-shrouded lake into the Broward Center remains a sturdy craft buoyed by a soaring muscular score delivered by a talented crew.

The scenery is markedly different but no less grand, the choreography has been inventively expanded; the atmospheric lighting is superb; the acting seems better than in recent visits; the overall direction is strong with some asterisks and it has been many years since we’ve heard the orchestra envelop the audience with such rapturously swelling and soaring sound. The only holdover element besides the orchestrations is the late Maria Bjornson’s costumes that no one could improve upon.   As a result, the production exudes a freshness that will surprise season ticket holders reluctant to see the show one more time.

…as fine as the production is and as admirable as the cast may be, some of the magic has disappeared in the return. For instance, even though Christine and The Phantom are more physical here – he actually touches her a few times – the latent sexiness is AWOL. Because Macintosh has cast a young hunky Phantom (as they did in the 2004 film), the daddy issues that added a bit of frisson are also missing. In fact, returning audiences will feel something ineffable is missing this round.

Grodin has a fine expressive voice, comfortably hitting everything from the subterranean low notes to the near falsetto. He competently delivers “The Music of the Night” and really nails “The Point of No Return,” which drags in other productions. His acting, which seems a bit one-dimensional for the first two-thirds of the show, finally blossoms in the final third to justify why he was hired. But there’s not a lot of sexiness, not much evidence of a tortured soul, nor much mercurial menace.

No such problems exist for Julia Udine whose gamin-like Christine not only has the requisite crystalline voice but whose acting chops chart the ingénue’s evolution from a scared little waif to a more self-assured woman…

Praise too is due Ben Jacoby in the eternally thankless role as the cartoon hero Raoul. Jacoby also manages to find some depth in this underwritten role pulled straight from a melodrama…

The outgoing cast that has been together a year is uniformly strong, including Jacquelynn Fontaine’s diva Carlotta and Brad Oscar as Fermin.

Connor has imposed a more intimate, less Grand Guignol comic book feel to the proceedings. Along with choreographer Scott Ambler , the whole enterprise seems to be in motion more than its predecessors… On the other hand, the set design has large empty spaces in the middle of the stage for the dance numbers; that means Connor more obviously keeps his two to three actors in intimate scenes careening around the empty space like pool balls after the break.

The last word or note belongs to the orchestra, a combination of five travelling musicians under the baton of Richard Carsey , plus 10 locals. Perhaps it’s that three of the slots are electronic keyboards that can imitate any other instruments, but the rich confident sound signals once again that this is no gimcrack bus-and-truck tour.

Phantom purists aren’t likely to be as taken with the new production as they were with director Harold Prince’s thrilling original, which is now Broadway’s longest-running show and is also the version playing in London. More casual Phantom fans or anyone new to the musical will probably enjoy director Laurence Connor’s take on the piece, though the tone of the touring production is much more broad and melodramatic. There’s a fine line between period style and cheesiness, and every so often Connor’s cast steps into the fromage .

That said, Paul Brown has come up with a set design that is lavish for the opera performance sequences, gritty for the backstage world that is the Phantom’s domain. The carved, erotic golden proscenium frame of the original has vanished, which is both a scenic and thematic loss. And the famous chandelier, which does come hurtling down toward the audience, is different.

Lighting designer Paule Constable and projection designer Nina Dunn contribute effects that enhance story and mood, including shadows that play out the Phantom’s history…

The outgoing stars are excellent singers with the training and talent to mine the emotions in Lloyd Webber’s soaring music — Grodin especially on Music of the Night and All I Ask of You , Udine on Wishing You Were Somehow Here Again and her duet with the dashing Jacoby on All I Ask of You . In addition to Fontaine and Frank Viveros as the tenor Piangi, both of whom convey their characters’ operatic style and personalities, the production features the fine and funny Brad Oscar and Edward Staudenmayer as the opera managers.

That The Phantom of the Opera is playing the Broward Center for the fifth time is a good thing... The new Phantom , though, also features both literal and figurative smoke and mirrors. The show is opulent, lovely to listen to, but not an improvement on the inventive original.

This version is funny, focused and filmic, a grounded production that makes more sense than the previous four Broadway road tours that have come to Fort Lauderdale, stretching all the way back to 1991, when the show inaugurated the Broward Center.

…The arrangements are less bombastic, revealing snatches of exposition and motivation that once were muffled (shadow puppets help fill in the blanks). Yes, some of the grandeur is gone. This is no rococo rehash. "Phantom" purists will purse their lips over the narrative tweaks and new chandelier, pyrotechnics and sets.

It all boils and roils down to a grittier musical, even though the Phantom seems a little less maniacal, while the prima donna Carlotta (played with zest by Jacquelynne Fontaine ) is much more of a diva.

That's not the only change. Sunday night's performance was the last for Cooper Grodin (spellbinding) as the Phantom; Julia Udine (stunning) as Christine; and Ben Jacoby (soulful) as Raoul. They will be replaced by Chris Mann (a 2012 finalist on "The Voice"), Katie Travis and Storm Lineberger , respectively.  It remains to be seen if the new cast can inject songs such as "Think of Me," "The Music of the Night," "Prima Donna," "All I Ask of You" and "Masquerade" with the same delicious, pulpy romance as their predecessors.

Lloyd Webber’s tuneful score and Maria Bjornson’s stunning costumes were retained, but Webber and producer Cameron Mackintosh entrusted fellow Brit Laurence Connor to helm a fresh interpretation, along with choreography by Scott Ambler and a set by Paul Brown, that would focus less on the spectacle and more on the characters and their relationships.

This production is still opulent by road show standards, but it is not the near-Broadway clone that forced performing arts centers across the country to knock out walls just to accommodate the massive sets.

…the biggest flaw in this production, if the emphasis is to be on the characters and their love triangle, is the acting. Cooper Grodin’s Phantom is too young and lacks the gravitas at nearly every entrance. The tortured soul is lost in his performance. His is also by far the weakest voice of the leads, failing to cut through the rich orchestrations performed by a 15-piece pit…

Udine capably handles the massive vocal demands of her role while embodying the naïveté of her young dancer. Ben Jacoby , as Christine’s childhood friend and hopeful suitor Raul, boasts the strongest voice of the three and much more charisma than Grodin.

There is still much to like in this production, even if it is unlikely to make its way to Broadway. The supporting cast is uniformly excellent throughout, the costumes are breathtaking and Connor maintains a brisk pace.

The Phantom of the Opera has become one of the most popular musicals in the history of musical theater. This scaled down version captures some of the beauty of the original version while adding some new charm of its own.

The cast for this tour had some standout performances, some adequate performances and some questionable ones. In the standout category, Jacquelynne Fontaine out-sang every single other person on the stage during her portrayal of Carlotta Guidicelli, the slightly past her prime opera diva. Fontaine has a true coloratura soprano voice with easy high notes and was the only member of the company that sounded as if she might have an operatic background.

… Julia Undine gave an adequate if somewhat uninspired performance. Her big high E flat at the end of the title number was definitely not prerecorded as she did not quite hit it accurately. Her singing overall was overshadowed by that of Fontaine.

In the romantic role of Raul, Vicomte de Chagny, Ben Jacoby was pleasant if somewhat unmemorable. His singing was adequate and he is an attractive man.

As the title character, Cooper Grodin seemed too young and too handsome. Grodin's singing voice leaves much to be desired. His low notes were some of the most unpleasant vocal sounds in the show and his high notes were not much better. As long as he was in the middle of his voice, it was O.K

In the roles of theater owners Monsieur Firmin and Monsieur André, Brad Oscar and Edward Staudenmayer gave very nice, charming and entertaining performances. As ballet mistress Madame Giry, Anne Kanegeiser was memorable for her rich, dusky voice.

Overall, this production pales in comparison to seeing "The Phantom of the Opera" in New York, but in the end, it was not the scaled down set but rather the lackluster cast that dimmed the sparkle.

‘Phantom of the Opera’ Roller Coaster Opening in the Spring

in Entertainment , Theme Parks

A wildly popular European theme park has announced that it will be opening a brand-new roller coaster based on the Tony Award-winning musical The Phantom of the Opera (1986). Let’s take a closer look.

On March 12, Europa-Park made a cryptic post on social media showing a mysterious black-and-white figure wearing a hat and cape and a date: March 14, 2024.

Two days later, the popular German theme park shared a video revealing its newest attraction: a VR roller coaster called Eurosat Coastiality – The Phantom of the Opera . That’s right, the longest-running Broadway musical of all time is getting a roller coaster .

Erlebe 2024 die faszinierende Geschichte rund um das berühmte Phantom der Oper wie nie zuvor! 🎭 🎶 "Eurosat Coastiality – The Phantom of the Opera" erwartet dich ab dem Frühjahr mit einem immersiven VR-Abenteuer im #EuropaPark . 🎢 pic.twitter.com/07Z0GcdbX4 — Europa-Park 🎢 (@europa_park) March 14, 2024

Described as “The mystery and intrigue of this gripping love story, coupled with the thrill of a rollercoaster ride,” Eurosat Coastiality – The Phantom of the Opera is located in the French section of the park and will have guests first put on a VR headset in the preshow room before getting on the ride. Then, guests will engage in a dark ride roller coaster with a sliding track that goes into a different station, meaning that the attraction is basically two rides inside one, according to Europa-Park .

This may seem like a strange addition to any theme park, especially since the stage show closed on Broadway on April 16, 2023 . However, it can never be understated just how big  The Phantom of the Opera really is.

What is ‘The Phantom of the Opera’?

The Phantom of the Opera began its life as a novel written by Gaston Leroux in 1909, and the character would become one of the classic Universal Monsters for Universal Studios after being portrayed by Lon Chaney in the 1925 film of the same name, cementing The Phantom as a horror icon.

While there would be many different interpretations of the story for stage and screen, including a 1976 musical written by Ken Hill, the 1986 Broadway musical by Andrew Lloyd Webber would take the world by storm. Directed by Harold Prince and starring Michael Crawford as The Phantom, Sarah Brightman as Christine Daaé, and Steve Barton as Raoul, the musical earned seven Tony Awards , including Best Actor for Crawford and Best Musical.

The story follows the disfigured Phantom who haunts the depths of The Paris Opera House. Soon, he falls in love with the talented soprano Christine Daaé , teaching her to sing and making her his protegé. However, she falls in love with her childhood friend Raoul, leading to passion, jealousy, and murder.

Despite the popularity of the initial stage show, future adaptations and sequels would never match the same levels of success. A film adaptation released in 2004 directed by Joel Schumacher starring Emmy Rossum as Christine Daaé, Patrick Wilson as Raoul, and Gerard Butler as The Phantom. A sequel called Love Never Dies (2010) became a notorious flop, never making it to Broadway. Hopefully, the roller coaster will fare better than either of these.

'Star Wars' marathon 2024 tickets: Where to get tickets for the 9-movie 'Skywalker Saga' theater event

May the fourth be with you . In honor of this year's "Star Wars Day" celebration on May 4 and the 25th anniversary of "Star Wars: The Phantom Menace," Jedis and Sith Lords alike can spend an entire day in a theater watching the entire epic saga in a row on the big screen, as intended.

But Florida fans may be out of luck, unless they want to road-trip.

While "Star Wars: The Phantom Menace," celebrating its 25th anniversary this year, will be widely released, some locations are reporting that the 24-hour Skywalker Saga Marathon will only be available in 13 theaters nationwide.

"The Majestic is one of only 13 locations across the nation hosting this spectacular event," said the Marcus Theaters , "and the only one in Wisconsin." The closest (so far) to Florida is in Plano, Texas. A theater list is below.

Along with the mindblowing daylong spectacle of empires, Jedis, princesses, lightsabers, space battles, beeping droids and the eternal struggle of good vs. evil, the marathon also will include an exclusive look at "The Acolyte," a new Disney+ series set during the High Republic era, the release said. Anyone attending the marathon will receive a special limited edition poster.

"We would be honored if you would join us for this rare opportunity to see  Star Wars  as it was intended: on the big screen!" the release said.

Here's what you need to know.

What is the Skywalker Saga Marathon?

All nine episodic "Star Wars" movies shown in a row, along with an exclusive look at the 8-episode Disney+ show "The Acolyte," coming June 4.

Prices range from $45 to well over a hundred dollars, depending on what other services, photo ops, costume parties, and food deals each theater is providing.

Fortunately, all the movies are still available on Disney+ with a subscription, so there's nothing stopping you from hosting your own massive marathon.

Strap in and get the big bucket of popcorn. Watching all nine episodic "Star Wars" movies will take you approximately 19 hours and 56 minutes, not counting trailers, "The Acolyte" content and emergency bathroom breaks.

Why May 4? What is Star Wars Day?

Fans celebrate Star Wars Day on May the 4th because it sounds close to the classic phrase, "May the force be with you" from the very first movie, "Star Wars: A New Hope."

One of the first appearances was in a London newspaper when it congratulated Britain’s new prime minister, Margaret Thatcher, on her first day of office. The full-page ad read "May the Fourth Be With You, Maggie. Congratulations!"

May the 4th be with you: How today came to be 'Star Wars Day'

Over the years the catchy (and later, highly hashtaggable) phrase caught on and fans began devoting the day to Star Wars-related celebrations. LucasFilms has often timed "Star Wars" releases, announcements and events for May 4.
