It’s great that people now have the chance to see what is effectively a West End quality production, without any of the hassle and expense of leaving ‘home’ 🙂 Yes, for many shows, it may now be more expensive than the usual top price £30 seat offerings, and yes, the often controversial premium seating model has finally rolled out to the regions, however for the quality of talent, staging and sheer ‘event’ that you’re now getting for your money, it’s all more than worth it, in my opinion. I’m going to sum this one up right at the start – this is a superb West End quality show on the regional circuit (which is increasingly becoming the trend in the industry, to great cultural benefit). (OK, OK, so it’s not exactly ‘regional’ – but I’ve got to re-acquaint myself gently ha!). I’ve been spoilt by working and living in the West End of London for that timeframe, and so it was with a small sense of occasion that I presented at the Palace Theatre, Manchester all excited to see The Phantom of the Opera‘s 25th Anniversary UK Tour.
Last night I attended only my second piece of regional theatre in about six years – get me!
