Andrew Lloyd Webbers Love Never Dies - the Phantom Returns Review

I received tickets to review the show. All opinions are my own.

It has been 10 years since the Phantom disappears and Christine, due to hardships and because she needs the money, accepts an invitation to perform at a renowned opera house in New York. Andrew Lloyd Webber's "Love Never Dies" is the sequel to "The Phantom of the Opera", and it is at present performing at Segerstrom Centre for the Arts April 24 through May five, 2018!

"The Phantom of the Opera" is i of my most favorite Broadway musicals so when I learned virtually "Love Never Dies," I had to go see it. Jake Heston Miller equally Gustave is so talented. He plays the lovable and curious ten yr quondam son. Bronson Norris Murphy is The Phantom and he has played Raoul on Broadway and then you know he is going to be adept. Meghan Picerno does an astonishing job equally Christine and her performance of "Love Never Dies" will have yous on the border of your seats. It is breathtaking! The ending is so powerful, and many of united states were in tears. Well washed!! They also received a standing ovation at the stop so information technology was well received. I only wish they performed some of the original songs, but it was still an excellent operation overall and very memorable. I added a clip at the end if you want to hear the song I am referring to.
